CoDE Pod – The CoURT - Edinburgh
10/10 Excellent
"It was my first time staying at a pod hotel and I must say - that left me with a good impression. At first I had been most concerned about the cleanliness, especially with the toilet, but turns out that was unnecessary - the bathroom, from the showers to the toilets, was clean enough for me.
As for the bed, save a single strand of hair I found on my mattress, which I found acceptable as it could be from the cleaning staff, there was nothing to complain about. As most of the guests respect the rule of keeping quiet in the sleeping area, I was able to sleep undisturbed all night.
In terms of the security, you have to pass through multiple doors with passcode to get to the dorms where you will get a locker as well, and the city was generally quite safe so I wasn’t worried at all.
Another thing worth mentioning is its extremely central location. Located right on the Royal Mile behind the St Giles Cathedral, it is literally the heart of tourism in Edinburgh. I was able to get to the train station, the castle, the new town on foot just under 5 minutes, which is perfect for any itinerary planning.
Apart from the usual things you expect from an accommodation, there is also tons of activities you could join, ranging from daily walking tours to all kinds of tasting. Sadly I didn’t have the time to join, but if you are staying for a longer period, you certainly shouldn’t miss out!
In conclusion, I was impressed by my experience and will certainly stay again traveling on budget."
"Anastasia, the front desk manager was outstanding! She helped us tremendously when booking day trips. She gave us incredible advice on delicious restaurants. Highly recommend. We also use the spa service and it was lovely. It is very convenient. Bus stops right outside the door of the hotel. Walkable to the Royal Mile. "
"A special and very personalised stay from the moment you check in. It feels more like you are staying at Bonnar’s home than a hotel. Easy walking to the city. "
"This was a great place to stay. The staff was very nice and friendly. It was close to everything. I was able to walk everywhere and felt safe. I would definitely stay here again. "
Summer Stays at The University of Edinburgh - Campus Accommodation
10/10 Excellent
"Edinburgh uni Summer Stay at Pollock Halls was fantastic. From the easy and friendly check-in it all went smoothly. Great selection at breakfast with lots of seating available. Very helpful and friendly breakfast staff. Shared bathroom was very clean as as expected for uni accommodation. Bed was very comfy. 100% recommend."
"The property was very nice. It was in a great location outside the city and the owners were very friendly. We were sad not to have Wi-Fi the whole time we were there because it was advertised that we would have some. Otherwise, the place was great and we had a great time."
