Quick and easy to drop off my bag in their locked luggage room and collect it later. Thanks!
- Stuart
Great location just off the royal Mile so a good place to drop bags when you haven't got accommodation. Really useful for train station. Owner, and dog, were very friendly and the bag felt safe
- Ben
Easy, quick to drop off and collect, bags in a locked room - felt very secure
- Emma
Everything was perfect; the luggage is in a separate room with a tag that is checked by the staff when it is collected.

There was a 15-minute waiting line, but the process to deposit the luggage and then pick it up was very quick. The staff was very kind as well :)
- Maria
The location worked so well as we were arriving from the airport as it was on the bus route
- Lois
Waverley Mall location very easy to find, staff member was really friendly and helpful. Central location if using the train station. Just a note for future users of location, you don't have to go from the station out onto street level and around to the location, like Google Maps suggests. You can just go through Waverley Market (where the McDonald's is) and go up to the location there.
- Kaitlin
Easy to find, the staff were helpful, and our bags were stored in an area only accessible to staff. Drop off and pickup were efficient.
- CARINE
Excellent location from Waverley railway station. Open 24 hours. We left our luggage at 10 am and took them back at 11 pm. The man was nice and cooperative

Bag rules at Princes Street venues
Stasher has no bag size or weight limits, so oversized luggage and multiple bags from a group can be stored. That contrasts with several Princes Street venues.
Edinburgh Castle, 0.4 miles from the Princes Street tram stop, prohibits suitcases and rucksacks of 30L or over and may search bags at the entrance. Johnnie Walker Princes Street also reserves the right to conduct security searches on entry, and may confiscate items considered dangerous or disruptive.
The Usher Hall on Lothian Road prohibits bags larger than 30cm x 30cm x 15cm and may search them. The Traverse Theatre, a few minutes’ walk from Princes Street, limits auditorium bags to 22cm x 35cm x 56cm and prohibits luggage for security reasons. For bags that exceed these limits, luggage storage in Princes Street is the practical alternative to taking them to the venue.
