Description

Amazingly located Royal Mile Backpackers is right on the Royal Mile in the heart of Edinburgh. As you can stay here for next to nothing, you’d be a fool not to snap up a bed in a dorm here! You won’t need to waste money on public transport either as most of Edinburgh’s famous tourist attractions, including Edinburgh Castle, are within easy reach. With so much to see and do, it’s lucky that you’ll have 24 hour access to the hostel so that you can explore your surroundings day and night.
