I have such an amazing experience here, it’s situated right in the heart of the city, just 10 mins walk to Princess Street and St.James Quarter Shopping mall! The staffs here are lovely and very friendly! we also get a 24/7 security on site! so I feel very safe here! Nevertheless, as an international student far away from home, whenever I feel lonely, I can always pop by at the reception and talk to one of the staffs!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Haddington Place in Edinburgh, an exceptional student accommodation managed by CRM Students. The cleanliness and spaciousness of the rooms, coupled with the well-maintained common facilities like the cinema room, living room, and gym, ensure a comfortable and enjoyable living experience. The welcoming environment, fostered by the loveliest staff, goes above and beyond to make students feel safe and taken care of. The location on Leith Walk is fantastic, with a vibrant atmosphere and easy access to amenities. The diverse community of residents adds to the overall appeal of Haddington Place, making it a truly exceptional place to call home during your student years in Edinburgh. One of the standout features of Haddington Place is the array of common facilities available to all residents. The cinema room provided a fantastic opportunity to unwind and enjoy movie nights with friends, complete with cozy seating and top-notch audio-visual equipment.

Amazing facilities with large rooms, kitchens, a gym and cinema room! Quite far away from campus and other accommodations if you are a student, but good for transport shops and things to do in the nearby area. Relatively social, but many flats are studios and many people keep to themselves. Lovely receptionists and security guards

super lovely accommodation! The staff is always friendly and helpful. Haddington Place is nicely located, near Calton Hill and a twenty-minute walk from Edinburgh University. The rooms are modern and my studio is relatively spacious with twenty square meters. There are many small cafes and stores in the area. Right next to the accommodation is a wonderful yoga studio I visit regularly. All in all, I felt very happy to stay here.

It's along Leith Walk; over the weekend it's a bit dangerous especially at night time. The noise from the tram construction work is a bit annoying. The groceries shopping is handy though.

This is a very suitable place to live. The room is very spacious, but the sound insulation effect is not ideal. Overall, I am quite satisfied.

Outstanding accommodation. It is always warm and welcoming. The rooms are modern and very sound-proof. Both the studios and flats are cosy and well-kept. I enjoy living here and have made many friends thanks to Haddington Place. The staff are incredibly approachable and instantly help if you need something or have any questions. In my opinion, it is definitely worth the price. The area, while not too close to the uni of Edinburgh, is still a great place to live at (lots of restaurants, shops, supermarkets and bus stops around). Edinburgh is a great city to walk around so for me the distance is not an inconvenience. Also, all bills are included and you feel very safe knowing there is always a security guard or receptionist at the entrance. WiFi works perfectly and the facilities are very convenient.

I have been living in Haddington Place for the past two years and it has been a great experience. The rooms are comfortably big, and you are provided with facilities almost unmatched by any other housing provider in Edinburgh. The gym has enough equipment to be useful for everyone, the common room is always fun with people hanging out and playing pool, and we even have a small cinema room. Other facilities like the laundry room, bike store and study room are top notch as well. The staff at Haddington is very helpful and quickly resolves any issues that come up, which is different from other university houses for undergrads. I have lived in the cluster flats and they are definitely one of most comfortable compared to other University of Edinburgh halls. The only downside is the distance to George Square campus or Kings Building. It's 25-30 min uphill walk to George Square which puts some people off but there are regular buses. Apart from that the area is lovely!

We were very happy in Haddington, it is a bit expensive, because for what you pay you can get a flat, but it sort of compensates with all the amenities and attention you have. The staff is very helpful and they are all nice. The location is good, and has lots of supermarkets near by. Social experience wasn't so good because of COVID but that had nothing to do with the place. The Wifi works perfect.

Haddington Place is in a perfect location that is quiet and safe. It is close to Princes St, Calton Hill and the Uni of Edinburgh main campus. The rooms are extremely well kept and spacious. I actually had too many drawers for my items. My oven stopped working and it was fixed immediately without issue. All of the staff are helpful, friendly, and lovely to talk to. I am so happy I stayed at Haddington and would recommend it to anyone.

Really friendly and helpful staff, and always quick to respond. Studios are perfect for mature students looking for your own space- I've stayed here for the entirety of my PhD. Location is great - in between the city centre and Leith so best of both worlds. Well connected to bus routes and there's a big Tesco in walking distance.

Great place to stay! Highly recommend to anyone moving to Edinburgh. It's in my favorite part of the city as it's in-between Leith and the centre, easy to get a walk to uni, get the bus or train anywhere. Also lodes of great cafes, restaurants, bars, and multi-cultural supermarkets. The staff are always supportive, friendly and chatty, the security guards honestly deserve medals as they do an amazing job to make you feel safe, can always ask them anything or have a good chat late night. The studios are a great space, perfect if you are a mature student or want something more quiet and private ( I have placement early mornings or late night some days!) Staying for the second year because I've enjoyed my time so much, despite being away from home through the pandemic.
