    The large kitchen and common area in the basement were exceptional. Polite, friendly, and helpful staff. Near perfect location away from the crowds but still walking distance to attractions. Comfortable themed dormitories and beds. Accessible communal seating area with kitchen. Good wifi. Hot and powerful showers. Generally clean hostel.

    Felt so welcome, no complaints at all.

    We stayed in a former church which is really cool. It was close to the old town, so we could easily access it by walking. the location near Dean Village was a major highlight for us, as it was a very pretty part of the city.

    The walls were quite thin, so we could hear noises from other rooms.

    my summer stay in edinburgh was incredible, but my recent stay at belford hostel surpassed all expectations. the friendly staff, spacious common areas, and convenient location near the river and transportation made it a perfect choice for connecting with other travelers. not to mention, the unique atmosphere of being in a church added an extra touch of charm.

    Limited storage space in the rooms.

    The cheapest during The Fringe. Nice kitchen facilities and a pool table. The staff was really friendly and helpful. The common room was great, the kitchen huge with everything you need. The location is gorgeous, close to Dean's Village and New Town. I recommend this hostel.

    We had a wonderful stay at Belford! The location was perfect, great to enjoy the beautiful surroundings of Dean's Village and the convenience of a short walk to the city center. The themed dormitories were a unique and fun touch, and the beds were comfortable. The communal seating area with a kitchen was perfect for meeting new people and sharing meals. The showers were hot and powerful, and the cleanliness of the hostel was great. we highly recommend Belford for a great hostel experience in Edinburgh.

    The hostel, located in a beautiful old church, has a unique and creative decor. The communal kitchen is well-equipped and the common area is spacious. The friendly staff, especially volunteers Nicole and Germano, were incredibly helpful. The location is also fantastic, with scenic Dean's Village just a stone's throw away and New Town only a short walk away. The free earplugs provided at the front desk were a thoughtful touch.

    One drawback was the lighting in the room, which was a bit dark. However, this was easily manageable.

    The private room I stayed in was spacious and clean, which was a pleasant surprise. the location of the hostel was great, just a short walk away from the old town. Plus, the large kitchen and common area in the basement were exceptional, providing a comfortable and social space.

    The shared toilets had a constant unpleasant smell, making it difficult to use. the noise insulation in the rooms was also lacking, as I could hear every step and noise from outside.
