Revolver Edinburgh

Room choices

Revolver blurs the line between hostel and hotel. You can book a bed in a shared dorm, a Japanese-style pod for a bit more privacy, a private room, or a modern apartment if you are travelling as a family or group. That range makes it useful when friends with different budgets are travelling together. Pods are a sensible middle ground if you want more privacy than a dorm without paying for a private room.

Social side

Communal areas and curated social events are part of the appeal, so it suits solo travellers who want to meet people. Groups of 20 or more book through a separate enquiry form, and meal add-ons such as breakfast in a bag and packed lunches can be arranged for groups. It also suits school or sports groups thanks to the meal add-ons.

Getting about

Palmerston Place is a quiet West End street. Dean Bridge and the riverside paths into Dean Village are under half a kilometre away, and Princes Street and the Caledonian hotel are a short walk east. Haymarket station is close for trains and trams. There is also a sister Revolver in Glasgow's Merchant City. The Glasgow sister site is at 62 Virginia Street, handy if you are splitting a trip between the two cities.
