The Hostel

Hey everybody, let me tell you about this place a bit.

This hostel has been open for a few years already, but unfortunately, a period of poor management led to a downturn in reviews. We are building a new team with the goal of reinventing this place. We aim to create a friendly atmosphere, to offer a clean and comfortable stay for all guests as well as to offer them advice on how to have the best experience possible when they visit Edinburgh. We need people who are ready to accept this challenge and help us out!

PS: For us, diversity and inclusion are extremely important, be it equality, gender, sexual orientation, race, or nationality. We take this into consideration in our volunteering.

The Hostel Manager: Hello, we are Caitlin & Micaelyn. Depending on when you arrive in the year, you will be dealing with one of us or both of us. Caitlin is taking over from Stephanie from the 1st of November. We both started out as as volunteers in The Hostel and during our time here, we have done a bit of everything and so know every aspect of the job. We have both worked in a variety of industries and jobs and have learnt from all of them. We believe in continued growth and learning. We know that every experience and individual brings their own special element to the table. We have always believed in working and living with integrity as well as leaving both a place and its people better than you found them. Always driven to improve. The Hostel management and team are looking for hardworking and enthusiastic people to join our magical team. Together, we can continue to create an incredible and special environment and experience for all.

I loved my time at The Hostel!! The hostel itself is in a great location for exploring Edinburgh, and there is always something to do! The manager, Caitlin, was very respectful and supportive - she ensured the work was well-organized with clear expectations while also encouraging a friendly and fun atmosphere for the volunteers. Through this experience I met so many kind and supportive people that I will carry with me for the rest of my travels. The hostel truly becomes a home away from home and the memories you make there will stay with you forever.

I volunteered in this hostel for one month and I had a really great experience. The manager was extremely kind, helpful and aleays available when needed. The work was simple and well organized, and the working hours were always respected. The hostel is also quite close to the city centre, so it’s easy to move around and explore. All the other volunteers were friendly, open-minded and supportive. It was very easy to create a nice group and to meet people to share new experiences with.
I wuold definitely recommend this place to anyone interested in volunteering in Scotland.

I absolutely loved my time at The Hostel! I came to explore Edinburgh, but the community that is fostered at the hostel is what will remain in my heart (though Edinburgh is amazing too!!!). The work is straightforward and fair, and you’re working with a fun, supportive, collaborative team. I will 100% be back and recommend this experience to anyone looking to meet some awesome humans and explore the wonderful city if Edinburgh.

Working at the Hostel was beyond all my expectations!
I arrived sooner to start living with other people and I finished this experience surrounded by amazing souls. I am grateful for all the people I met and for all the shared stories!
Working at The Hostel won’t bring you a task to do but friends to hang out with and lovely people to share memories with.
