Be aware that this facility often hosts large student groups who may well disturb your nightime peace and sleep. Otherwise, staff are excellent and while the 70s building is dated the place is tidy, clean and has a remarkably well equiped kitchen. Suggest reserving an ensuite bath if you travel as a couple.

Great staff. Good kitchen. Refillable bottled water fountain available. Convenient location with plenty of parking. Spacious lounge. Breakfast available. Only drawback, rooms are not very well insulated so can be noisy. I always carry earplugs so I can sleep.

Great location, nice and peaceful and calm but easy walking distance from the station and the town. The hostel had a lovely quiet calm atmosphere. The staff at reception was very friendly. The communal areas and facilities were spacious and very well equipped. The room was naturally basic, as expected, but comfy and clean and well appointed with things like sockets/USB points and bedside tables with reading lamps. I would stay here again.

While we enjoyed our room, we had families with kids on both sides of us and it sounded like they were doing gymnastics until 11pm

A great youth hostel, comfy bed, spotlessly clean and quiet in a good area with an easy walk to the station. I'll definitely go again.

We booked to stay in July 2024 for wishing to attend a fantastic concert in the Town. By chance we were in Inverness in October 24 and keen for a place to stay, We got a last minute room at the hostel. It was dirty.
This time we arrived with trepidation, totally unfounded. We left out bags after a friendly welcome, went to the concert - brilliant! Came back to find a spotless room. We would recommend the place and the kind staff. Moran Taing Inverness SYHA

I stayed in three different hostels for my first Scotland trip. This is the best one out of the three. Definitely I will return during my next visit to Inverness. This hostel was the only one that could accommodate my request for a lower bunk bed, which I greatly appreciated, as I needed to wake up in early morning.

A very dated looking building much in need of re-decoration. Despite that a friendly welcome and facilities adequate. However the room had not been cleaned with any care or attention. A very bad image for overseas guests to Scotland and SYHA should be ashamed. I do not mean their hard working staff but the head office who allow such shabiness I doubt they ewould recommend the place.

The hostel was very convenient, even more convenient than it looked on the map. There were cafes and chemists within walkign distance and the train & bus stations were a 15 minute walk away. It was lovely to talk with other guests and the staff (shout out to Luna and all the staff for the directions, and friendliness). I booked a private room with ensuite, and am happy to say the shower was very powerful and the room clean and spacious. I would definitely come back.

Very well run. Very affordable. Only fault was that not all mattresses were equal in my dorm. First one I tried was painfully sprung, but since I was the first one in the room, I just switched beds and found one that was comfortable.

One night in private room.
Handle of the bath/wc door was written as broken and you could get locked inside if alone. Was badly fixed with tape ! Should be fixed permanently as it is a hostel ! One window did not close.
Otherwise, good for youth hostel. Parking on site and walking distance of city center, shared kitchen and breakfast continental available

The staff was curt, the beds like cardboard over springs. The place is clean, though the women’s lab was out of toilet paper in two stalls an entire day. Rooms are quite crowded.

We stayed at Inverness for a few nights and happy with private room, kitchen/dining facilities and laundry. But honestly our highlight was George the cat. If only every accommodation had a resident cat the world would be a far better place.

Property allowed flexible check in due to delays in our trip. Booking was most likely mixed up with another as original booking was for 2 females in double bed booking. Check in receipt listed 2 males for one bed for occupancy of 2. Property location was what we were looking for along our journey traveling.

Never complained about mattresses before, but broken springs digging in ribs and not even one electric outlet make for long night. Kitchen wonderful, but I'm writing this at 4 am, because for the first time in over 35 years of sleeping in hostels can't sleep.

We were very impressed by our stay here. It was very nice to have access to the kitchen for our dinner and they had a very nicely priced breakfast available for us in the morning, which was extra nice because we needed to leave early. I would say that the location is "kind of" walkable. You definitely can walk to a grocery store and some restaurants, but it was a bit further than would strictly be called convenient. It was a nice walk though! The neighborhood is very nice and there are sidewalks the whole way. The room was great, the beds were comfortable, the shower was hot, and it was just what we needed!
