Looking for a hostel?
Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Great location. Free and safe parking. Old World comfort - looks fantastic. Reception greeting was excellent; explaining everything we needed to know. Staff were lovely. Both rooms were good - clean, warm (with additional heater). Food at the restaurant was very tasy and the range of whisky was a delight. Prices were not too high. Breakfast the next morning - buffet, with a good range of well-cooked food to compliment the cerals and fruits and yoghourts.

    My stay at the backpackers' hostel was very enjoyable. It offered great value for the price. The kitchen was well-equipped, and the rooms were neat and tidy.

    Very well located. The little cabin for family is really cosy, with private bathroom. We had a tv in the cabin, free wifi and even a safe. Prior to coming to the hostel, we received all instructions how to access and get the key for self checkin and checkout Large kitchen space and very clean too.

    Stayed 2 nights, the staff was fantastic and very helpful. I was surprised with the kitchen, big and fully equipped, certainly a bonus. Great location with great walks opportunities. And most importantly very nicely stocked up bar ;) There was also nice little outside space to enjoy fresh scottish air. Never waited for a bathroom or to use any of the facilities. Not going to comment on comforts of the sleep as it is a hostel. The bed itself was comfortable and the sheets clean and fresh and that's what I expected.

    Lovely, comfy hostel, friendly and helpful reception. Clean, comfy beds. Great lounge and seating areas, plus lovely clean kitchen. Well-stacked bar with Ness beers and a range of whiskies. Great location right off the Great Glen trail and a short walk from the Co-op. Vying for best hostel on this trip!!!! Would go back and highly recommend.

    A "classical" backpackers hostel, nice crowd, has its own charisma, otherwise - good value for money

    Warm and comfortable. Double bed super comfy. The bunk beds were a bit hard but probably more suitable for kids 😂 Great location - short walk to supermarket and the Loch Ness Inn for dinner. Communication from owner was excellent.

    Cheap and cheerful. Bit of a cross between a motel and a backpackers. But does the job nicely and it's cheap for the area. But I did have an en suite shower room.

    Cosy backpackers' hostel, sparse but nice. Perfect stay if you're on a budget. Really nice beers on tap, do request the Scottish recommendations.
