Reviews

I had a great experience at New Park. The bed is big unlike most accommodations that come with very small bed. And that’s so crucial if you have to stay like a whole year. The place is situated a little bit inside the community area. It’s not directly at the main road which makes it more peaceful. No loud noise from the main road. I like it very much. The room is relatively new The staffs here are lovely! I had stayed in many student accommodations in Edinburgh. This is by far the best! In terms of comfort, convenience, weighting everything together in the whole picture. From my experience staying in various student accommodation others than New Park, I’ve learnt that sometimes if my place is very near City Centre it could feel busy to just get around or doing grocery, it could be very crowd in the street. New Park offer a quite peaceful community area with groceries nearby and it’s not hard to go to the uni by bus from here, therefore it suits me more.

This has been a great accommodation! The reception is wonderful, and I have had the best experience with my roommates! It's in a great location, which you'll get used to quickly, and it's just a bus/light walk away from anywhere you need to go. I was worried at first because of the drive to the ECA campus, but it is a breeze, and you get used to the buses quickly. The flat is perfect for one person and I'm going to miss this too! You won't regret this accommodation, truly! The only thing, but it's the same for many of the uni accommodations, is the laundry facility. There are roughly 4 dryers and washing machines for the whole of the accommodation, so that gets tricky, but not impossible.

Both en-suite and studios are good facilities. There are social funny events organised by stuff. Quiet nice area In general except for a few arrogant students who don’t understand that people should not slam the doors and keep the volume down at nights. Particularly suit students study on Holyrood Campus. Walkable distance. Convenient buses around.

As a student in en-suite room.nnPros:n- Site cleaned regularlyn- Staff are super friendly and helpfuln- Security/night staff until 3amn- Comfortable, low-light common roomn- Easy parcel delivery systemn- Regular social events and occasional freebies energy drinks, etc.n- Spacious shared kitchen area with 2 ovensn- Room clean and fresh on entryn- Devoted waste area/bin shedn- Indoor bike lock-upn- Local amenities shops, dentist, barbers, post office nearbyn- Very good bus route access regular service from 35 and 1 on Easter Road, and more via Leith/London RoadnnCons:n- No sheltered area for smokers which becomes problematic in colder/wetter/windier weather as location is a wind trapn- Outdoor seating area in car park shown in pictures becomes heavily waterlogged in rainfalln- Low water pressure, showers dribble watern- 3/4 double bed not quite big enough length-wise if resident over 6ft feet poke out bottom of bed at anklesn- No extractor fan in bathroom, just an open vent which has a low rumble noise wind blowing through ventilation system maybe?n- Laundry room utilises Circuit machines infamously expensive and only 4 machines for the entire 3-block site so usage is best after midnightn- Lack of fridge/freezer space for shared flats 6 rooms sharen- Mid/upper-bracket pricing compared to other sites, but this can be offset by the inclusive energy/heating bills which is handy in a cold cityn- Terrible response time from Glide Wi-Fi service at first 6+ months to identify why I was getting such a low bandwidth, did not get resolved before my patience ran outn- Not an issue for myself personally, but it is very near a local stadium so crowds and noise levels nearby can increase dramatically on match daysnnOverall: 6-7/10.nI've applied for a renewal of accomodation for next year as it's been a very comfortable stay.

New Park is an excellent student accommodation. It’s quiet, clean and conveniently located. The staff is outstanding, especially the manager Evan who has been very helpful since my first day here, ensuring everything runs smoothly.
