Fort William Backpackers

Worst backpackers I have ever stayed at. 4 showers for 50 people, 3 toilets. No hot water. Heating didn’t work. Mattress was extremely dirty and covered in black mold.

good location and staff but needs better showers

Fantastic location with superb vieValws. Very friendly and helpful staff. Free coffee. Comfortable beds

No fue una experiencia agradable debido al pésimo servicio de recepción. Tuve que hacer una transferencia bancaria para pagar porque nunca hay nadie en recepción, ni temprano por la mañana, ni tarde por la noche, ni a primera hora de la tarde. Lo único positivo son los servicios que ofrecen: aparcamiento y toallas. Por lo demás, no volvería a reservar.

Friendly staff, spacious room, and such a beautiful location.

fantastic! lovely building, and the common space is phenomenal

The hostel is a lovely space and run with a lot of love. I've met very nice people there and enjoyed my stay. However two things to note, the top bunks do not have any rails or anything that would prevent you falling off which definitely impacted my sleep. The showers were also cold and I was not the only one noting this. Cleanliness could be improved slightly but for the price it was okay.

Not your high frills hostel, the beds had no curtains, the landings were usually full of shoes drying out and 30% of the showers were broken… I’d come back tomorrow if I could! What a wonderful little spot, the people passing thru were so nice and it was such a great little town. Good launching spot to explore the Highlands and have somewhere to come back to. Whatever you do, do not forget your key when you go to the bathroom at night or you will sleep on the floor outside the door.

Very dirty and it smells bad I get it’s somehow cheaper than other options in the village but at least they should provide the basics like hot water and cleanness.

Cool place! Little bit of a farther walk from the main strip where most shops/bars/etc are located but nothing crazy. Very basic in terms of amenities, they offer towels, laundry, etc all for a charge. Shower didn’t get hot but sometimes it be like that. Overall not bad.

We booked this hostel for 3 nights and unfortunately had to leave after 1. There were only 2 showers for the entire hostel, and there was no hot water (even in the sinks). We tried showering at 3 different times (early evening, night, and morning) and even used the out of order shower at the staff member's suggestion and there was not hot water at any time. The staff member was nice and let us refund the unused days of our stay. Sheets are old and the wall had a questionable hole. Not for me.

Très bien, personnel très serviable. Grande cuisine qu’on peut utiliser, plusieurs douches et toilettes disponibles en + de ceux dans notre chambre! La salle commune est agréable avec tout ce qu’il faut (jeux, crayons de couleurs, crochets…). Il est possible de faire tourner une machine et les faire passer au sèche linge pour 10pound, c’est vraiment utile quand on est en back pack et que l’on fait uniquement des auberges de jeunesses. Juste petit bémol pour ma part : pas de rid...

Lovely old Victorian house with some great features especially the front lounge. Cold showers. 2 showers for approximately 40 people. Not enough kitchen space 2 cookers 1 microwave

Could be a bit warmer in the rooms, and showers as well:) ecxept that its okay!

Super süßes Hostel! Sehr zu empfehlen! Der Gemeinschaftsraum und die ganze Einrichtung ist einfach sehr gemütlich und freundlich :)

Nicely situated. Well equipped kitchen. Helpful staff.

Great location, very easy to get to. Overall pretty average, no bells and whistles but we still had a great time! The bathrooms could use some improvement!

Great place to stay, staff very knowledgeable

Super welcoming environment, staff are really great and in a good spot

It was great for starting points to hike, staff was really friendly and helpful
