Student accommodation in Edinburgh
From a castle on an extinct volcano to the Edinburgh Fringe, the world’s largest arts festival, this city doesn’t do half measures. The famous whisky walks are proof of that! Need a recovery day? Stroll along the historic Royal Mile and hike up Arthur's Seat for the views, then find a cosy café like The Elephant House (where JK Rowling wrote Harry Potter!) and get stuck into the local shortbread. Visiting parents will love it. Chances are, you will too!

Arran House
These ensuite rooms and private studios sell out, year after year. No guesses why…
The Royal Mile, Edinburgh Castle and the shops of Princes Street are just a 20-minute walk away. Same distance as the University of Edinburgh and Napier University. But why just sleep and run? There’s a great community here too. Hang out in the common room, games room and communal kitchen and you’ll find it. We also host regular wellbeing events, making sure there’s nothing between you and your best life.

Edinburgh knows how to party. Join in and we’ll give you a great place to come home to, right on the edge of the Old Town (parents love it!).
Princes Street is close by, along with the famous Royal Mile and the fantastic restaurants of the Omni-Centre are just minutes away.
Work to be done? We’ve got study rooms and Brae House is a 20-minute walk from Edinburgh Uni. Brain feeling foggy? Try a head-clearing hike up to the stunning views from nearby Arthur’s Seat.
