I recently stayed at High Street in Edinburgh for a few nights and had a fantastic experience. The hotel had spacious rooms and bathrooms, as well as helpful and friendly staff. The breakfast was delicious and the atmosphere was great. I especially loved the unique shower design and the fish tank in the lobby. it was a wonderful stay and I will definitely be returning in the future.
Couldn't recommend this hotel more.

Just off the Royal Mile, there were plenty of historic sites, great pubs, and restaurants nearby. the staff was super helpful and friendly, making sure I had everything I needed. the beds were comfy and the bathrooms were clean. the hostel had a spacious kitchen with all the amenities for cooking.
The noise from the street can sometimes be a bit bothersome, but it's generally not too noisy at night.

We had a wonderful stay at a hostel in a perfect location, just steps away from the charming High Street. The beds were comfortable, and we loved having lockable boxes for our belongings. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the hostel was open 24 hours, giving us the freedom to explore the city at our own pace. The hostel also had a small fee for breakfast, a convenient option. Despite some minor noise from the hallway, we would definitely recommend this hostel for a relaxing holiday in Edinburgh. we were very satisfied with our experience.
