CoDE PoD hostel is an urban concept designed to give travellers a central location and quality sleeping environment at a low cost. The Asian-style pod concept is the main unique design feature combined with secure keypad entry systems from which the name “CoDE” was derived.

We aim to bring cool and efficient design to city centre buildings.
We have a few minimum brand standards such as clean rooms, high quality mattresses and linen plus a good breakfast. In addition, we pride ourselves on having welcoming, friendly and knowledgeable staff.

It’s not rocket science, it’s just doing the basics very well.

Welcome to CoDE!

SLEEP PoDS

Our pod beds are designed to make you feel like you are staying in a private room. The pods have curtains to provide privacy while you sleep. Each pod is equipped with USB sockets, LED reading light, hooks and a shelf. We’ve selected comfy mattresses and linen to give you the best sleep experience you will ever have in a hostel!

Over the years we have improved the design of our pods. One of the coolest new features of the new pods are the LED mood lights behind the headboard. Science has shown that different colors can have effects on your mood, so if you are feeling particularly tired one day just ask us to change to color to bright yellow!

SAFETY

Lockers

Each pod has a locker available in the room which is secured with a digital lock. (no need for padlocks!)

The lock uses a 4 digit code of your choosing to securely lock away your personal belongings.

Keypads

Our custom built code entry system is what inspired us to name our brand CoDE Pod Hostels.

The system provides an extra layer of security in our hostels. Each guest receives their own personal code at check-in, which can be used throughout the building and on the room door.

The codes are easy to use and very hard to lose 😉

Female only dorms

We have plenty of female only dorms available at our hostels.

All rooms are equipped with plenty of mirror and hairdryers can be picked up from the reception at no cost.

 

Emergency contact

Each pod has a small sticker with a WhatsApp number that can be used for any emergency.

This goes directly to our reception, who will come straight to the rescue!

    Great stay

      2024-09-03

    The staff is super kind and helpful. They offer tours that are super interesting. I did the coffee one with Sarah and I loved it. The idea of having your own space in the pod is great. Everything is clean and you have enough space to lock your luggage. The shower is super good and clean. Although in the city center the noise was minimal. (They offer earplugs, which is good).

    Great little hostel converted from an old prison.

    The location is excellent, situated on Royal Mile but still being relatively quiet. The building itself is very modern and nice.

    We had a room for the two of us but a shared bathroom set up. The room was comfortable quiet and cool which was good since we stayed in July. Room is an old cell converted which is cool. The shared bathrooms were spotlessly clean which we were relieved with.

    Loved that they have retained the prison theme throughout. Would definitely stay again.

    Last night in Edinburgh

      2024-08-25

    Code Court was a great place to stay our last night in Scotland after traveling 14 days. It’s affordable, on the Royal Mile, very clean, comfortable sleeping pods, and has a great vibe with cool decor and friendly staff. The coffee was great, Laundry service on site. Short 5 min walk to catch the express bus to airport. Looking forward to staying again.
