Great place. Awesome value for the money and the staff helped us with instructions to install ourselves (we arrived late). Unique recommendation is to tell people that you don’t include towels, a lot of people don’t frequent hostels that much and we forgot about this detail

We stayed here just one night before our Ben Nevis trip and that hotel is the best start point. Personnel were friendly and helpful. After many trips we appreciated the dryer room, where you can clean and dry your clothes.

Well located hostel, friendly staff
Generally speaking fine. A well designed hostel. A friendly team. Greater attention to detail on the housekeeping side would be good For instance soap dispensers and towels remained empty despite prompts and some kitchen equipment was depleted and defective.

Perfect location. Good facilities. Friendly staff. Could be better in terms of cleanliness, e.g. no soap in toilets, dining room floor covered in food and left for several days etc

Ben Nevis Views
Really great place. Amazing views and possibly the best youth hostel. We stayed 2 nights to explore the area. The path to Ben Nevis is opposite and we had a view of the mountain range from our room. Couldn't be better.

Great for Ben Nevis Hike
This hostel is a no frills stay with in a great location for anyone looking to hike Ben Nevis with the trail starting just the opposite side of the road. The bunk beds were clean and each level had it's own light and plugs.
