Rough Guide "A five-star hostel just off the Royal Mile, with 622 beds in twin rooms or dorms. Women-only rooms are available."
Afar Magazine "Hostels - the word alone is strong enough to awaken the worst feelings in the world." Full review
The Telegraph8.0
"A good example of a competitive new style of hostel accommodation: less relentlessly wholesome than a traditional rambler’s rest but not a party-animal pit." Full review
OysterBudget
"Part hostel, part residence hall, the budget Safestay Edinburgh is a young, casual property with a party atmosphere." Full review
Lonely Planet Top Choice
"A big (620 beds), bright, modern hostel that feels more like a hotel... A huge bar and a central location just off the Royal Mile make this a favourite place to stay for the young, party-mad crowd." Full review

Frommer's "Rooms are divided into cosy (single), snug (double), and comfy categories—double, triple and quad. All the amenities the hotel-savvy guest expects are here." Full review
OysterMid-Range
"The Grassmarket Hotel is a mid-range, 42-room property brimming with quirky character and fun contemporary style." Full review
The Telegraph7.0
"There is nothing subtle about this recently-refurbished hotel, which has cleverly reinvented itself as fun-central — shrinking violets need not apply." Full review
Independent "The ideal choice for party animals. It’s fun and funky, albeit compact and snug, and right in the midst of the raucous stag and hen do-packed pubs of the Grassmarket. "
Lonely Planet Top Choice
"An endearingly quirky hotel set in a historic Grassmarket tenement in the heart of the Old Town." Full review
