Black Isle Hostel

Extremely clean, great location and very comfy beds. Would deffo stay here again. Small kitchen but great size common area. Bathroom great size- plenty of showers. Would have been nice to get towel included in price of stay. Overall really lovely hostel.

Definitely would not recommend this hostel to solo female travelers, or really to anyone. security is very low, broken windows, bathroom trash is overflowing, showers were grimy. very little privacy in the rooms. overall very unpleasant experience and wouldn’t come back. staff at reception was kind and the location is decent.

Pretty average hostel. No real atmosphere. The brewery round the corner was very nice. The rooms were small and didn’t off much privacy.

This is not the worst hostel I’ve stayed at…but it’s pretty bad. Best I can say, it’s not dangerous or filthy. But it’s eerie and kinda gross. Lots of street noise. Location and staff are good. Shower has hot water, but it’s one of the push button ones that stops after 15 seconds. Overall, it beats camping. I wouldn’t stay here again.

We really were quite happy with our stay! Staff were lovely, and everything including the rooms and bathrooms were very clean. The kitchen area was quite small, but had pretty much everything needed. It would be nice to have a clothes washer and dryer on-site, but other than that all good!

Im Schlafsaal hat alles wunderbar gepasst! Die küche ist sehr klein, aber man kann sie verwenden. Leider waren Toilettenkabinen nicht immer sauber und teils hat Papier mehrere Tage gefehlt und würde nicht aufgefüllt.

The hostel itself is very nice. Window in our room wouldn’t shut properly and very loud outside especially at the weekend so didn’t sleep much

Great location is about the only positive I have. Checking was delayed for over 1.5h as the rooms were not ready. The person on reception seemed like they would rather be anywhere else. Showers were ok but toilets didn't have any bog roll and the hand dryers weren't working. Beds were basic and pillow was uncomfortable but that was nothing compared to how uncomfortably warm the room was. All in all fine for price but can't really recommend.

1. if you want to be in the middle of everything it's a good choice. 2. the carpet in the bedroom (and the common area) is stained, so it doesn't feel clean. 3. the sheets are brown so it's impossible to be sure it's really clean. 4. the kitchen is so small you can't do much and there was only 2 forks available. 5. the bathroom was clean and there was many toilets and showers. 6. the only staff member I met was at the bar to get my key, she was lovely. I didn't see staff in the hostel.

Clean and comfortable hostel, perfectly located next to the train station.

Pretty chill place, very close to bus and train station, as well as the center of Inverness. Didn’t seem like there were many activities organized by the hostel, but the common room was a good place to chat.

Excelente lugar: bueno bonito y barato. La gente muy amable, los baños enormes y buena limpieza. Tiene una cocina bien equipada y buen ambiente. La habitación en la que yo estuve quizás es un poco chica pero alcanza.

Posizione strategica. Tutto il resto molto scadente. Pulizia? Parliamone. Dormitorio misto e non c'era spazio nemmeno per rigirarsi.

La chambre était très simple mais fonctionnelle. Des armoires seraient utiles. La petite cuisine était propre et suffisamment équipée. Mais les casseroles étaient en mauvais état (évitez le Téflon!). Le personnel était très sympathique. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié la salle commune (petit salon salle à manger) très lumineuse et confortable (surtout après la tempête du 4 août!). Sanitaires propres et pratiques.

Location was great and beds are comfortable, but I don't think it was worth the money due to the lack of cleanliness in the common area bathrooms super small kitchen and lack of any kind of atmosphere.

Cuisine beaucoup trop petite et sale, four sale, très peu de vaisselle, plaque de cuisson cassée. Personnel peu serviable. Chambre propre et correcte, calme. Douches et toilettes correctes sauf au deuxième étage, toilettes bouchées.

It would be nice if they provided one towel.

We had a good stay here! We were only there a night but we had no issues

Got REALLY noisy in the evening as the hostel is located right in the center of the city. It is convenient because you can get to the bus/train station in less than 5mns but on weekends, people tend to gather on the side street beside the hostel and drink, chat, laugh very loudly. I paid about £40 a night and I wish I could have slept better.

Top location, 3 mins from bus/train station. The staff is super nice. The bathrooms are very clean, the kitchen less, but the worst was the carpet should. It should just be removed, it's smelly and against any hygiene logic.
