Description

Just 50 metres from the vibrant Princes Street in Edinburgh, Haystack Hostel is housed in a charming renovated 18th-century Georgian building. While it doesn’t have a 24-hour reception, you'll enjoy complimentary Wi-Fi and a fully equipped shared kitchen to whip up some snacks or meals.

The dorms feature stylish wooden triple bunks and come with individual power and USB sockets, reading lights, and fresh bed linen. The shared bathrooms are spacious, with large showers and separate facilities for men and women, making it super convenient.

You’ll find plenty of shops, bars, and restaurants in the area, and Edinburgh Waverley Rail Station is just a stone's throw away, less than 150 metres! Plus, if you fancy a bit of sightseeing, the stunning Edinburgh Castle is only a half-mile stroll.

The kitchen and dining area are well-stocked with everything you need, including an integrated oven, hobs, fridge, microwave, toaster, and kettle. For your downtime, the lounge area offers the perfect spot to unwind and mingle with fellow travelers.

And don’t worry about your bags! Secure luggage lockers are available, along with a handy laundry service and Wi-Fi access throughout the entire building.
