Very Good

Excellent budget option in what appears to be student housing. Compact and clean rooms, with the basic amenities. 20 minutes walk to city center, but along a street with shops, restaurants, bars etc., and a bus stop nearby with frequent service.
This property is a student dormitory during regular school term. The location is excellent and there’s good public transportation options nearby. The room is small but comfortable. There’s a communal kitchen with a refrigerator.
From warm welcome to super helpful checkout, we (mum & 9 year old) loved our stay. Bed was comfy, everything clean, great to have access to kitchen and communal area with chance to chat to other guests - a grand-mother and -daughter from The Netherlands. Otherwise very quiet despite being quite full. Great location for us, near to Arthur’s Seat, easy cab from and to station, amd enjoyed the walk into centre of town
I liked how close to the Fringe Festival it was!! Salisbury staff were all so nice and helpful, restaurants in the area were all amazing, local transit was easy and very accessible. Bed was not comfortable but it wasn’t so bad that it put me off—would stay again!!
Overall perfect for a few nights stay. Friendly reception, capsule room with communal kitchen if needed. Bed was slightly small but did myself and my young daughter fine. Short walk to the middle of Edinburgh.
Great option! Wow I wish I had a dorm room like this when I was in uni! Very safe and secure building, double bed (not the most comfortable, but it’s a dorm room), private bathroom with shower, everything was great! Awesome location too!

The beds were very comfy, internet ok, room clean and well stocked, but the price for a student residence? Outlandish.
The place is what you would expect from Student housing. It was quite clean and modern. Good value for the money, especially during Fringe.
It was a bit noisy in the evenings and the bed/bedding was not comfortable, other than that, the place is a good budget friendly location.

Good stay - flexible staff & good location for Edinburgh Festival, however prices significantly higher than last year, and at night it was difficult to sleep when drunken residents came through the side gate shouting/revelry. I overall liked the studio apartment for its space.
Convenient location for attending city-centre Fringe events. (20 mins walk). Welcoming and helpful staff. High standards of cleanliness in all areas. Some noise at night from room and fire doors banging, but very little external noise. Would recommend for a short, no-frills stay.
Perfect for the Fringe - cheap, central, yes it feels like being a student again but for us that added to the fun. Loved having the equipped kitchen, the communal table tennis and pool table, but the privacy of an en suite. Not particularly noisy and felt very secure. It’s not a plush getaway but if you plan on being active it’s perfect. Would definitely use this place again :-)
The room was clean, the property conviniently located, staff has been friendly. An issue of badn clogged took a bit longer to resolve needed more than one day reminder. But overall happy with the property.
We were two sharing a double room for two nights in Edinburgh, Salisbury Court. The staff by the reception were all very good and gave us a good recommendation for a nearby breakfast place! The beds are pretty hard to sleep on, but the location is great if you want to stay near the old town without the noise of the city disturbing your sleep. The room was small, but practical and affordable. And the shared kitchen is a big plus! Thank you for having us :)
