Code Pod – the Court - Edinburgh

I have stayed at The Court before and really liked it, especially because of the location – it’s very convenient and central. However, I feel the recent changes have made the experience less enjoyable. The space is now smaller, and unfortunately, the kitchen has been removed. There used to be areas where you could cook, eat, and hang out with other guests, which made the place feel more social and flexible. Now, that is no longer available. It’s also not allowed to eat inside the rooms, so if you don’t want to order from their kitchen, there aren’t many options left. For me, this was disappointing because one of the best parts before was the freedom to prepare your own food and enjoy it in a shared space. Overall, the location is still great, but the new rules and reduced facilities make the stay less comfortable than it used to be.

Perfect location in the central. Staff are friendly. Highly recommend

Extremely nice position with affordable prices. Just few minutes walk to the prince street. Also , it’s really easy to remember where the hostel is located without using the google map, just behind the statue of Adam Smith. The staffs are nice, and all is cleaned. The locker is big enough with a table at the top where you can tidy your baggage (don’t forget your belongings put on there). Moreover, the food served is very nice and the live band also. You also have like 10% off on the menu as a guest! Last but not least, just try to join the wts group of the hostel. There are really nice suggestions like site-viewing, restaurant, etc. from other visitors. It really give you lots of nice idea about where to go at Edinburgh if you didn’t plan anything yet.

Just next to the royal mile so it’s convenient to get to any tourist spots.

Great Location, the most crowd area at the old city. Only 10mins to Castle. Opposite to Mary King's Close. Room and Public area are very clean. Very nice service. I would like to stay here next time. Design of hostel is cool, brilliant.

Great hostel, great service and friendly staff, and awesome bar/dining area. Definitely need to try the irn bru ice cream there! And it is in a perfect spot, just on the royal mile!
