I will be back for sure. Just great. I only stayed here for 1 night but I enjoyed my stay here. It was super friendly, calming and tranquil but very sociable. The people at checkin and checkout we’re great and friendly. The dorms themselves very comfortable. Also the beds have 2 pillows not 1 and this is a bonus. Considering many dorms I stayed have only 1\. The views and position of Hostel is remarkable. Just fantastic. The continental breakfast at only £3.50 in the morning was great and prepared me for the day. 10/10!! ##### Marko Stayed 1 night in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Frederic 27 May 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Très bel auberge de jeunesse. Avec un très bon accueil. Dans un emplacement paradisiaque. Tous les services nécessaire sont disponible à l’auberge de jeunesse. ##### Frederic Stayed 2 nights in May 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Vincent 9 Jun 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### lake-side hostel Nice lake-side hostel in a quiet nature area. The rooms have a lot of beds. I'd appreciate courtesy curtains for privacy. Each bed has a private light and several plugs for charging items. There is little furniture in the room which causes a lof of stuff to lay around. Maybe some small shelves? Bedsheets are soft and warm. Parking is on-site. Wifi works decently well There is a large common room with large kitchen. Its a good option for large groups. Thery have basic food items for sale and a paid breakfast. This is nice because there are no stores around. Showers are shared. Clean. Staff is very friendly. ##### Vincent Stayed 1 night in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rhys 23 Apr 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lochside hostel Very comfortable night, reception very friendly. Lovely private Lochside beach. Well stocked tuc shop and equipped kitchen. Breakfast expensive for what it is ##### Rhys Stayed 1 night in Apr 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Paul 1 Sept 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Friendly, welcoming with best view of Loch Ness A great place to stop, broke up our journey from Fort William to Elgin. Staff were really kind and welcoming, breakfast was great value (lots for £3.50). Make sure you bring food with you, as there is no shop for miles. Definitely have a dip in the lake by the private beach, the 10km loop walk out the back of the hostel is dreamy and worth a wander even if you only get to the waterfall. The kitchen is a good size and the communal area / dining room has lots of books, games and a pool table that is free to use, along with the BEST view. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9A4248BE61BA14DA258877F6FF4957B3AD2AF2DE1630488817421.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Paul Stayed 1 night in Aug 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 29 Aug 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort Great location, second time we have stayed there ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Aug 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 21 Sept 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Een geweldige plek waar je snel thuis voelt op een geweldige locatie iedereen is vriendelijk en behulpzaam ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gitte snabe 6 Jun 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Skønt sted med en dejlig atmosfære .

They gave me tips on what activities I can do and which bus to take and which time. Iconic living room next to the lake which in the morning is becoming your breakfast area!
