Belford Hostel

Ein gut eingerichtetes Hostel, welches in der Nähe vom Stadtzentrum liegt. Die wichtigsten Sehenswürdigkeiten fußläufig binnen 40 min. erreichbar. Wer keine hohen Ansprüche hat und auch mal selbst kochen mag, hat mit dem Belford Hostel eine günstige Alternative zum Hotel.

這是一家非常有趣的酒店，由教堂改建而成，服務人員很好，友善而周到。因為是歷史建築沒辦法改建，房間還是比較大，有集體廚房，電影室，單間少，因此用公用浴室洗漱還是比較方便。感受獨特氛圍還是很有意思。

Estuve en Edimburgo para una convención. Encantadora habitación privada, sin ruidos, cerca de las rutas de autobús. Es un lugar peculiar, una iglesia antigua. El chico que me registró fue genial. Dios lo bendiga, tuvo que lidiar con un par de personas que estaban un poco confundidas sobre el día en que debían registrarse (ups) 🤭 por lo tanto, mi proceso de registro se retrasó un poco, pero el chico de recepción no pudo disculparse lo suficiente por el Retraso en mi registro, solo fueron 15 minutos de todos modos, pero eso no fue su culpa. Él personalmente me mostró mi habitación, lo cual fue un buen toque. Por lo general, solo te dan una llave y te señalan en la dirección correcta. La habitación era perfecta para mi visita a Edimburgo. Sin duda me alojaría aquí de nuevo. Buena ubicación, tranquilo y bien de precio.

I strongly advise against booking this hotel if you value basic customer service and fair treatment. I attempted to make a reservation through Agoda, and the app initially rejected it. Since the booking didn’t go through, I tried again using a different card, and this time it was successful. However, to my surprise, both reservations had actually been processed, leaving me with two bookings instead of one. I have now spent 96 hours trying to resolve this issue, sending emails and making phone calls to both Agoda and the hotel. Neither has offered a solution, and worse yet, Belfors Hostel has refused to allow Agoda to process a refund, despite the fact that the duplicate reservation was due to a system error. A hotel that caters to international travelers should, at the very least, have decent customer service and a willingness to help guests when issues arise. Instead, this place has demonstrated a complete lack of professionalism, zero accountability, and no respect for tourists. If they are this unhelpful before you even arrive, I can only imagine the kind of service you’ll get during your stay. There are plenty of other hotels that will treat you with respect and assist you if any problems occur. This is not one of them. Avoid it.

I have to say do ignore the neggy reviews. I really enjoyed my stay at this hostel and all the staff are super friendly. Please be kind and respectful to this lot - they’re such good bunch! And the hostel has a really nice chilled atmosphere, best hostel stay I’ve had so far and I’ve stayed in at least four in Edinburgh alone just sayin’. ~ Rose

Decent for a hostel. We had a private room, clean and the bathroom and toilet facilities seemed to be regularly cleaned etc. One of the better hostels I've ever been in. We were able to easily walk to many attractions and all over the city from here, so that was great too!
