I had a great first experience at A&O! I found the workload to be clear and reasonable and definitely felt more like a volunteer than a staff member. What I most appreciated was getting 4 days a week free to be on my own time and explore more of Scotland! The only thing to note was that the main common area is the bar room which wasn’t always ideal for me personally- but there is a terrace space as well if it is nice out!

I had an amazing time at A&O the Staff and other Volunteers made this experience truly unforgettable. Its quite a busy hostel, it can be a lot of work on the days you are on but you get lots of days off to make up for it. There's not a lot of quiet spots, if you want something lively and fun this is definitely the spot for you. Thanks everyone! Feel free to message me with any questions.

As my first volunteer experience, I loved it. It helped me improve my English, enhance my work skills, and connect with people from other countries.
The staff was very kind and patient in giving work instructions.
I would definitely come back to the hostel.

I had a really great time volunteering at A&O Edinburgh! The tasks were super easy to learn, and the work schedule was fair and very reasonable — which gave me plenty of time to explore the city and rest. 95% of the staff and fellow volunteers were incredibly kind and friendly, which made the whole experience even better. I’d definitely recommend this to anyone looking to enjoy Edinburgh while meeting amazing people and being part of a chill, supportive team

I had great experience with the A&O team, considering prior experiences with the brand, I felt welcome. The chores are shifts are clear since the beginning, 3 days working x 4 days off. The city is an amazing place, the hostel is located in the center, so you can go easily wherever you want by foot/bus/train. Loved this experience and hope to return soon. The volunteers create great environment, too much memories.
