I had a two night stay at Glenbrittle while visiting Isle of Skye. The room was comfy enough (a little cramped for ten people), the bathrooms were nice and very clean, the common areas were well stocked and cozy.
There's also a great waterfall right across the road from the hostel and plenty of sheep and lambs to watch in the evenings.
This is a amazing youth hostel, the staff is so nice and available!
All the hostel is very clean and safety.
We very enjoyed our night here.
Thank you for all.
Great location to hike and to visit the Fairy Pools. Comfortable rooms and clean bathrooms and showers. Very large kitchen. Only drawback was biting midges (insects) in our room which are common in Highlands areas. We left with multiple bites. Otherwise our stay was really nice.
I had to cancel my booking at the last day because my ferry got cancelled. I was expecting that they will provide a partial refund but they were not flexible on that which was quite disappointing.
I had a fantastic stay at Glenbrittle Youth Hostel, very remote and quiet just what I like, Stuart there went above and beyond to help me out with my camera issues along with giving me ideas where abouts to go and was extremely friendly. It's an awesome place
The location was amazing, the rooms comfortable and clean, and the host at the reception was extremely helpful and hospitable, i would definitely recommend!
We liked that: landscape, closeness to nature, tranquillity of the place, hellpfulness of the staff, simplicity and at the same time cosiness of the accommodation; breakfast, locally produced craft beer from the island.
Stayed 3 nights at this lovely and comfortable hostel. I used the drying room to prepare my shoes for each day of walking. Benjamin the manager was so helpful and friendly. Had a great stay and met new friends! The only issue was the lack of wifi or mobile network which turned out to be a nice disconnection from everything
