Amazing place!! We booked a room last minute due and the staff were very accommodating and helpful. The room itself was immaculate and the bathrooms were super clean and new too! Fresh towels and shortbread in the room was lovely. Self check in is available and the self check out is super handy. The communal spaces are lovely and there is lots of free food and drinks on offer. An amazing location and view of the castle from our room too. Amazing!

The place was very modern and clean with great decor and comfy areas to sit. We loved that there was a bar there where we could try some of the local beers. We shared a family room which was very comfy for 4 people. The kitchen and bathroom areas were well kept and clean too. Staff here were very friendly and helpful

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    I had a wonderful stay at Bazpackers! The comfortable bunk bed ensured a good night's sleep, and the clean kitchen was a delight to use. The hostel's proximity to the train station made it easy to get around. But what really made my stay special was the wonderful host lady, who went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. One suggestion I do have is to implement a code system for the dorms

    Everything you'd expect from a youth hostel. Bunk beds with a light each and charging point. Tv room with comfy chairs. Lockers for your stuff. Good location near supermarket, high st and train station. Kitchen was ample size for everyone to use.

    Perfest location close to city centre. Nice and cozy atmosphere in this small homely hostel. Comfortable rooms and beds, good and clean facilities in bathrooms and kitchen. Nice and kind staff. Perfest for cyclists - bikes can be stored safely in the small garden with fine views! Will definitely recommend!

    Really lovely friendly staff. Everything you need from a budget hostel. The towel hire service was a good send because we had forgotten ours. Great location.

    Staff were friendly. Facilities were good: small kitchen with most things you need and a relaxed common area. Great shared bathrooms. Not really any atmosphere in the hostel itself, but a decent place to base yourself in Inverness if not looking to meet people. Bathrooms were large, incredibly clean and had good lighting - probably one of the best hostel bathrooms I've stayed at in a while. Great location - very central.
