"Inverness Hostel SYHA has to be the largest hostel in the country. Despite that, it's a little hard to find. It's out in the middle of a residential area (a posh one at that) and the street names are all slight variations of each other, so it's easy to make a wrong turn and find yourself back where you started. Perhaps because of its upscale surroundings, there's not one sign directing you towards it -- anywhere. There's a pretty good uphill hike from the bus/train station. The big, white, concrete building is entirely devoid of...  more »

"The Inverness Tourist Hostel is a comfortable hostel. The hostel has a very good location and great facilities. The Location The hostel's large, yellow signs are immediately noticeable on one side of the outdoor bus station. Any passengers arriving on Megabus, National Express, or Scottish Citylink will be arriving here as it is the main and only stop in Inverness. From the train station, fallow the signs to the bus station. The hostel is approximately only three blocks away from the train platforms. A public parking garage is located...  more »

"Bazpackers' Hostel is farther from the intercity transportation than several other establishments, but the extra walk is worth it. A little ways up the hill from Inverness Castle on Culduthel Road behind a small restaurant, it is about five hundred meters from High Street and the town center and is just as convenient for any activities in and around Inverness as any other local hostel. Although it appears from the outside rather tucked away behind a restaurant, stepping inside, you find yourself at home. The approach is deceiving,...  more »

"Eastgate is a small hostel on a street in what can be considered the shopping district of Inverness. (Inverness is small and everyone knows everyone there. Everything closes at 5 p.m. as well, be warned.) The hostel didn't look very clean at first sight but it actually is. The employees clean every day and even sanitize the silverware every once in a while. The staff are great, especially Kylie. There is a small garden out back (ask where it is, the sign is easy to miss) where you can smoke, but make sure the doors are propped open because...  more »

"The Location Highlander Hostel is conveniently located right on High Street, in the pedestrian section of town. It's a short walk from the bus and train station, about ten minutes. Once you've figured out how to get around, Inverness is an easy city to manage. The bus ticket office can give you a map. Directions from the bus station -- walk down Margaret Street to Academy Street and turn left. Take any of the streets linking (Queensgate or Union turning right, the only way possible from Academy) to Church Street and go left again until you...  more »

"This hostel provides a fantastic base for searching for the mysterious Nessie (Loch Ness monster). It is right on the shores of the Loch. At times there is a lack of hot water so need to shower nice and quick. It does really only cater for groups rather than individual travellers.
