My time at EBH has been one of the best experiences I've ever had :) The managers & volunteers have become like my second family, I couldn't ask for better people to spend my time in Edinburgh with, I've made memories within EBH that I will carry with me for the rest of my life❤️ If you want to experience everything Edinburgh has to offer you and meet amazing people in the process I definitely recommend volunteering at EBH hostel! Thank you to Sergio, Pedro and Merche for everything! I will miss my EBH family so much xx

It was my first volunteering experience and I really enjoyed it! The team is really nice, always makes you feel welcome and makes sure that you have time to visit this beautiful country. The work is a bit tiring but you have plenty of time to rest and to discover the surrounding areas :)

My time at EBH was amazing! The Managers are absoluty lovely and to everything to make you feel like home. The atmosphere is like a family, everyone helps each other out while work, after work we also hung out togethers and went out to pubs. I made alot of lovely friends from all over the world and even got to practice a bit of spanish:)The housekeeping is very simple and is explained to you very good. The Location of the hostel is a 10/10 pubs, clubs and supermarkets are just around the corner. Thank you for the amazing time, los quiero #FC8

It was my first volunteer and it couldn't be better. Edinburgh its a beautiful city, just like the people of the hostel. They couldn't give me better welcome and the vibes of the hostel are very nice. The job sometimes can be tired but its not a big deal, hours are respected and you have a lot of free time to discovered the city and go out:)

This hostel has welcomed me as a family and it has grown to be a 2nd home for me. I wouldn't change anything about this hostel or the staff. They will always be my friends!

My time at the hostel was great. My time there was cut short due to family issues back home. Resulting in me returning to Australia. But the managers there were very considerate to my issue. The hours are respected and everyone there made me feel welcome. Very close to shops and the Main Street. I would recommend this hostel to people who want a true authentic Edinburgh experience.

Logistically, this experience is fantastic. The hostel location is perfect, the work is easy to learn and hours are good (there are busy days, but that is to be expected). I met wonderful volunteers which was my favourite part. My only concern was with management. Although I felt warmly welcomed at the start, the staff attitudes seemed to change over time. In my opinion, they often forgot this is a mutual exchange where we both benefit, and it left me feeling undervalued. Communication was at times, unempathetic and authoritative.

I had an amazing time with volunteers. Great working hours and location. However, in my experience I didn't like how managers would sometimes treat other volunteers. Overall, I had the best time in Edinburgh and I've made some great friends.

The hours are very good. Usually finish at 1-2pm, and then you have the rest of the day to explore beautiful Edinburgh. Great location in Old Town close to train station, attractions, and pubs for nightlife. I had the fantastic opportunity to meet a great group of volunteers and formed many good relationships.

As a whole experience, I really enjoyed my stay at EBH. The hostel is located in such a good place surrounded by so many great bars with live music and clubs. The work was ok mostly during the week but it got busier on the weekends and meant we worked mostly for the four full hours. The volunteers I met here though were 100/10 and I had a great time with them everyday! I would recommend coming here but would maybe advise only staying for a month or so. I would totally recommend the Scotsman for a drink and great live music :)
