The Court Pods Experience

If you have only ever seen PODs in the Movies now is the time more than ever to check that box.  If you are travelling with a group its a whole load of fun, secure and COVID friendly.

The CoURT is located right in the centre of Edinburgh’s Old Town. The building, originally a courthouse and jail!,  We preserved many features and converted some of the holding cells to private rooms (some ensuite).  So if you have never spent the night in jail this might be your only chance.  The courtroom is an amazing capsule sleeping studio.

Code Pods was designed and completely purpose built from the ground up to offer guests the very best facilities possible. Wonderful facilities include WIFI, Cafe with Free Breakfast, Roof Top Terrace, Penthouse Lounge with plasma and just so much more. We are confident you will have a fabulous time at our cool, modern hostel. Quite simply budget accommodation just doesn’t get better than this.

Code is fun, cool and relaxing. Suitable for discerning groups who can book a private Rooms/pods or individual travelers.

Code Hostel hostel combines innovative, modern design with the traditional materials and elegance of a listed building, our concept was to provide the best possible accommodation, atmosphere and experience for discerning guests.
