I travelled with 3 other friends, two of whom were girls and had a good overall experience at the hostel. The kitchen facilities are excellent. Obviously, the location is the best thing about it. One tip though, if with girls, try and get a separate room, as we booked the four bedroom dorm and as such had a complete room... More

The last thing I expected to occur when booking into this hostel was to be asaulted, let alone by the manager, as a consequence of ringing the bell to get inside @2AM because the front door, knowingly to owner and staff, is a bit dicky and can be difficult to open. The manager, had had a few and in a... More

Hello Dan F Very disappointed you decided to write this review and I note you wrote it the day after when emotions were still high. After getting no ‘satisfaction’ from the staff, myself the manager, the owner or the police (which I note you haven’t mentioned) you took the route to attack the hostel and my reputation through a Tripadvisior...

the only good thing about this hostel is the location, it's just outside bus station and 2 min walk from city centre. I stayed there on 16th of September 2011 ith my husband and two friends. We checked in and immediately noticed the clenliness was really poor. You only get a bedsheet but covers on dyvets or pillowcases are not... More

Hello. As the new manager with new staff I'm keen to respond here, as I have already done with your review left on Hostelworld. As other reviews for the month of Septmeber show there, the large majority of people had a positive time at the hostel so we are very sorry to hear you had a poor experience and we... More

This one was a little sketchy, but it was next to the bus station, so no big surprise, right?. Common room can be loud, staff was friendly but non-chalant and not very helpful. Good wifi and kitchen area, and the mattresses felt new. The rooms get funky very fast if the windows get closed. You will need reservations in summer... More

Good location in Inverness. Helpful & friendly staff. The hostel needs redecoration or at least a thorough spring clean. Feels grubby. Noisy at night...main door bangs quite loudly. More

A 6 person dorm room was 11 pounds each, so thats a great deal. It is a large hostel, with a nice common room and friendlly staff and the location is great as well. The toilets and showers were not clean, and it al was pretty 'sticky'... the room was very noisy, and the front doors shut with a VERY... More

We were in Inverness for 3 nights, and spent all of them at a 10 people dorm at this hostel. While the facility is nice and clean, it seems to be run by 25 year olds, which don't mind drinking alcohol and even mixing it at reception. A lot of people seemed to live there for a long time, and... More

This hostel is located right in the middle of the city. Just a 10 minute walk to the castle grounds, this hostel has great access to the good food of Inverness. As for the amenities, the toilets and baths were clean, the place was quite cramped (but still enough room to maneuver around). I'll definitely recommend this place purely for... More

Great lounge room which was open all night, with comfortable couches, big tv, piano and unfortunately a broken guitar. Hostel stands opposite of big store and there is cheap car park house next to it. Bus station is just around the corner and also small market with drinks and cigarets. Bathrooms could use a little renovation, but it was ok,... More

Stayed for three nights in a dorm room. The setup of the room made it seemed a bit cramped and I wasn't too fond of it. Bathrooms were as clean as they could be with tons of others using them, but the halls always smelled a bit funky on the floor where we stayed like the fans weren't working properly.... More
