Based in the heart of Inverness, Black Isle Hostel!

Conveniently located a stone throw away from Inverness train and bus stations, our bright and unique hostel is not to be missed! We
have 10 mixed dormitory rooms and 14 private rooms above our bar with beds from £25 and private rooms from £52. Our private rooms include single, twin, double and family rooms all of which are en-suite with towels provided. Our hostel offers two communal bathrooms, one for males and one for females with towels available to hire for £2. We also have a large comfortable lounge with a dining area and kitchen available for all guests to use during their stay. We are also dog friendly within our private rooms or fully booked dormitories.

Our bar, Black Isle Bar, has proven to be a popular establishment offering a selection of 26 craft beers on draught and many many more in cans and bottles. Our brewery produces world class organic beers and we are able to showcase a large selection of these exclusively in our bar. The bar's kitchen is fitted with a wood fired pizza oven and our food is as organic as we can possibly source. We serve a unique selection of pizzas, salads and specials such as stews and soups.

We aim to bring a little of the Black Isle to Inverness and act as a base camp to the Black Isle itself! Tours of the brewery can be arranged all year round, for free! We hope to offer you a unique stay and our team look forward to welcoming you through the door.

We stayed here for two nights. Was not very pleased with our stay. We arrived late so we checked in through the bar which was fine. Then we walked back to the hostel entrance. I am a girl traveling with my other girl friend and we were not informed that the hostel was located right next to a Gentlemen's club. So, arriving close to midnight on a Friday night felt a bit uncomfortable. There is also no direct front desk or security when you first enter. We stayed in a 6 bed mixed and the room was fine.

Hostel is right next to the bus station which is handy but to be honest that's the only advantage of this place. Lack of any sort of atmosphere, the kitchen and common area upstairs were filthy dirty, the bunk bed next to you is arms length away. it was only fine as we stayed there for one night, the second night we spent at the student hostel and the unfortunately this hostel looks bleak at most. The other place was super clean, comfy and £10pp less per night. Would not recommend.
