This is one of the best hostels I have ever stayed in. The location is just perfect (if you like remote, rural places), it's not only right on the banks of Loch Ness, it's also very close to a hiking trail. The atmosphere is just brilliant, there are various activities every evening, like a bonfire (with music and singing), beer pong, pub quiz and other fun things. I'm a bit gutted I couldn't go for a dip in the loch, but will make sure next time I do. Because of the remote location and the activities, you easily get to know other travellers, it's got to be one of the best places to make friends. You can buy food and drinks at the reception, so even without "going back to civilisation" you can easily survive here. The breakfast is basic, but very good. The staff - most of them were volunteers - was excellent. The whole place was spotless, every one was very friendly and helpful, and you could just tell that they loved to be there. This hostel has a heart and soul like few others. It is not only great value for money, it is also great value for your time.
Featuring free WiFi, a barbecue and a terrace, the hostel offers pet-friendly accommodation in Drumnadrochit, 2 km from Urquhart Castle and 22 km from Inverness.

the staff are very kind - made us feel at home,
it's a nice place, there is a nice lounge - good atmosphere. Even has a piano which I thought was great ( chickened out of playing it - would have if there was no one around)
Set in Drumnadrochit, 25 km from Inverness Castle, Loch Ness Bunk Inn offers accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a terrace and a restaurant.
Featuring free WiFi, 1 Lochness Rooms&Hostel offers accommodation in Drumnadrochit, 22 km from Inverness. You will find a shared kitchen at the property. There is a shared lounge area with a TV.
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.
I stayed here for one night while travelling to Skye. Great location - just a short walk into the centre of Fort Augustus - with plenty of free parking. Good facilities with meals/ breakfast available and a bar in the property which gave a good opportunity to meet fellow travellers. I stayed in a four bed dormitory which had its own bathroom/ shower - would have been ideal if travelling in a small group. Great value for money and everything was spotlessly clean! Would definitely recommend.
It's budget accommodation, sharing a room with strangers, so expectations have to be managed. All worked, there was somewhere for my bike, breakfast was more than sufficient, and individual electrical sockets for every bed were useful in these charger-dependent days. There is a bar. Free hot drinks. More relaxed than the typical SYHA hostel.
Group accommodation, a great location and pretty good breakfast. I travelled with my bike which can be locked up in a shed, although the reception is not open 24 hours so getting your bike out is dependent on staff hours. This doesn't really suit if you're trying to get away early. If you're looking for a budget stay with friends this is a great pick.
After staying in self-catering accommodation it was great to be in a hostel with a lot of like-minded people - a woman up from London running a marthon, a group of German climbers, everyone in love with the outdoors - lots of great books for free. We had a good, cheap and hot dinner - my veggie haggis was great - and breakfast set us up for the day. Great location close to Fort Augustus - perfect for seeing Loch Lomond and as a stopover on the way from Skye to Loch Lomond. Friendly laid back atmosphere much appreciated.
Lovely hostel, great location, close to everything you need, nice rooms, plenty of couches to chill on :)
