Great location, okay hotel
The location here was great, pretty much walking distance to everywhere. The room was burning hot but the thermostat was locked and we couldn’t lower it at all. Bathroom was nice with lots of hot water. The WiFi was out out entire three night stay which was really inconvenient.

Loved it!
Incredibly located on the Cowgate, the Stay Central was a short walk to anything you could want to see in Edinburgh. Very clean, updated, and comfortable, I would recommend this hotel to anyone going to Edinburgh!
Danielle, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We have been travelling for more than 40 years, and my wife and I both agree, that this is possibly the best place we've stayed. Modern and clean rooms, and a short walk to the Royal Mile. There is also a great bar/restaurant downstairs.
Philip, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

1 night stay
We stayed for 1 night, our room was big, however very cold…. Breakfast was a bit of a farce menu with 6 choices and we were told only 2 available, don’t leave a menu and then tell guests there are only 2 choices
Tracie, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

This place is a short walk from the castle which is a plus. But it feels like an upscale hostel.

Awesome place to stay when visiting Edinburgh. Right next to all attractions and shops, Directly next to two great bars. Heavenly shower in the bathroom in our 6 person room. Can’t recommend enough!
Nicole, 2-night trip

The room and facilities were amazing! Was so nice after a day of travel to come into such a nice atmosphere. Would highly recommend staying at StayCentral!!
JD, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Great area and well appointed rooms. We liked the fact they offer rooms with multiple beds, but bathroom ventilation was poor and the glass door on the bathroom does not work well with the family
Gaganjit, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

No room available even though we booked
They didn't have a room for us , so we had to find alternative accomodation, very disappointed
simon, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great base
Perfect place to use as a base for exploring. Next door to a very lively bar so don’t expect perfect quiet. Though we managed to sleep no problem.
Nicola, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The halls and rooms smelled weird, no ac, and with a bar being right next door, it was loud some nights.
