This may be Inverness’ smallest hostel (34 beds), but it’s hugely popular. It’s a friendly, quiet place – the main building has a convivial lounge centred on a wood-burning stove, and a small garden and great views (some rooms are in a separate building with no garden). The dorms and kitchen can be a bit cramped, but the showers are great.
