We travelled to Edinburgh with a team of 22 teenage girls representing our county at a Gaelic football tournament and the staff and management of the Village Hotel were amazing from start to finish. The location, although out of town, suited our purposes as we could walk to our sports venue. As we were a large group we booked through the dedicated Village Hotel sports desk team, Jessica and Louise, who were fantastic and the made the process trouble free. We arrived an hour later than planned due to delayed flights but reception had all our room keys ready, rooms pre-allocated by name so we’re knew exactly where each girl was and all the rooms were together - very useful when you have 22 teenagers to corral! The sports desk organised a pre-ordered meal for our arrival on the Friday night which was carried out seamlessly by the restaurant and our late arrival was not an issue. The food was fantastic and each order was delivered correctly. We had parents who had driven up to Scotland through torrential and the restaurant staff kept them a meal and had them served before they had their coats off. Absolutely faultless service from the check in staff and everyone in the kitchen and restaurant. The sports desk team also organised a buffet for our team on the Saturday night. We expected the usual chips, chicken nuggets, burgers etc but there was also mini toad in the holes that weren’t mini at all, chicken breast, potatoes, veg, salad, pasta, desserts, fruit, plenty of water and juices and teas and coffees for us exhausted coaches and assistants. A special mention to the chefs, Chris and George who went far and above expectations and looked after us all amazingly. Another faultless service from everyone in the kitchen. Nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was brilliant. Plenty of everything and enough choice for the fussiest of teenage girls - nobody went hungry. Our rooms were clean and warm and all the twin rooms had 2 double beds which was a huge luxury for our girls. All in all, the Village Hotel was the perfect venue for our group and we wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again. Thank you to the management and staff for making what could have been a nightmare trip a breeze.

This is a good place for backpackers. We stayed here for a couple of nights in a 12 bed dormitory. The beds were good with ample space to keep our stuffs. Toilers were clean. The receptionists were friendly and approachable. The check-in time is 2 PM, so if you arrive early, you'll need to wait in the locker room and help yourself to some coffee. Or else you can keep your bags in a locker and roam around the city till you are ready to check-in. Early check-in is also available, but subject to availability of beds/rooms. Overall, quite good.

We stayed here on the last days of the Fringe festival so we chose it for its reasonable price. Location is very good, I'd say 15 minutes walking from the centre. Nothing fancy as it's a student accommodation but overall clean and pleasant. The only thing I would improve is cleanliness and temperature in the corridors as the carpets are stained and old, and it was too hot. As for the room, despite being tiny, it didn't feel claustrophobic, thanks also to the the big window, and I liked the bathroom quite new, bright, and clean. In conclusion, I'd definitely recommend staying here.

had a fantastic stay here! there were 10 of us who all booked out a dorm. was quiet, clean and good quality. there are two bathrooms and two toilets per dorm which i thought was very good. our room wasn’t ready for an extra half an hour so they gave us free drink tokens for the bar! the reason this doesn’t get 5 stars is because it was awfully hot in the room - even with the window open! there didn’t seem to be air con - we wondered even if the hostel had put the heating on? we didn’t try the breakfast. the hotel bar had decent food but long waits.

Clean, spacious facilities, lovely staff, and a great common area to hang out at. The beds are very cozy, and the whole place is well cared-for. It’s also a very convenient location. I can’t believe how affordable this is! Many thanks to the gentleman who carried our giant suitcase up the stairs.

Good value for money and excellent location in Edinburgh. Our flat was spacious and comfortable for a three-day stay. With each bedroom being en suite we all had comfortable sleeping and living arrangements. The kitchen was well appointed and the reception desk even gave us shampoo and dishwasher soap tablets. As it was warm, they also made fans available at no cost to anyone who wanted one. We travel to Edinburgh every summer. We absolutely plan to return to Destiny Murano next July.

Good location if based in Leith, buses from downtown and the airport express 200 stop directly outside and close to the Leith canal walkway which is nice. Currently lots of construction of the tram outside which makes the location look uglier and harder to navigate than normal. Rooms are good clean and acceptable size. Breakfast is ok. Some of the staff are quite surly, very grumpy when I checked in and refused to help me extend my booking, forcing me to have to book another place.

The shower leaks we had to put the towel down in front of the shower door… The room feels like hospital rooms but overall we had a good stay at the hotel. It’s 10-15 minute walk to the city center. There’s a gym on the basement floor also

I've never stayed in a hostel before, let alone in a former jail revamped as one ! Besides the gimmick, the Court is a wonderful place to stay if you are visiting Edinburgh, whether on a budget or not : fantastic location near the St Giles cathedral (where city tours seemingly start from), super friendly staff and surprisingly clean amenities (first time experience in a hostel so I didn't know what to expect quite frankly). Would definitely recommend !
