noisy not for sleeping
TOO MANY BUS PARTIES WITH UNEXPERIENCED CLIQUES AND INEXPERIENCED TRAVELLERS.Loud ,noisy and not much fun
Unique Quality: The management seemed to find the party groups fun whilst the individuals were somehow a problem for not joining in . they need a serious rethink

MacBackpackers Inverness Hostel
This is part of the MacBackpackers network of hostels - so if you like them you'll love this one too.
Been around for years - this independent hostel started life poaching business from the then Youth Hostel opposite. Now the SYHA have moved to a new site, and other independent hostels have opened up in town nearer the train / coach stations.
But who cares? This hostel is quiet one minute then packed the next, as three tour buses pull up and disgorge there contents of cheery revellers.
Its a small, compact hostel. If you want to join a bus tour group - do so quickly - become part of the lively, happy throng - ohterwise it can be very frustrating - and you will have to go with their flow, sleep when they want, or not.
Unique Quality: The location is nice, on a slight escarpment overlooking the river. The building is full of character, and decorated in the usual style, so very "student" feeling - plus plants and use of colour - not retaining the original buildings character.
Its about a 10 minute walk, through town to the hostel - and upwards - so maybe refresh at Macdonalds on the way. You have to walk past 3 other hostels on the way!
Breakfast service is continental style - ideal for a quick, no fuss start. I think its 1.50 still.
If you can get a quiet (no tour bus) night here - do - its good - but otherwise you will feel like the padding - filling up the edges.
Oh, btw - the "castle" is a modern construct and not worth getting excited about.
