The West End Hostel

This budget-friendly gem is located in a beautifully restored Victorian building on Palmerston Place in Edinburgh’s West End, making it an excellent choice for hen groups. The hostel offers both stylish private rooms with en-suite showers and four dorm rooms with mobile phone lockers, catering to various preferences and budgets.

If you’re looking to save a bit more, you can take advantage of the well-equipped communal kitchen and laundry room. Plus, as a hostel guest, you’ll receive a discount at the Time Bar and Bistro, where you can indulge in gourmet burgers, hot dogs, pub classics like fish and chips, nachos, and even haggis neeps and tatties. The bar, which features live music and shows live sports on plasma screens, is open until 11 PM during the week and 1 AM on weekends.

Conveniently located just a three-minute walk from Haymarket train station, you’ll be close to a variety of great pubs and the lively nightlife of Lothian Road. With easy tram and bus access to the city center, or discounted rates with the hostel’s preferred taxi firms (just ask at reception), you’re all set for a fantastic hen weekend in Edinburgh!
