The newly built Errigal Hostel feels bright, modern and clean. The room was a little bare, but was clean and tidy. There was some noise during the night from the corridor and from people using the toilet next door. The kitchen is well equipped and the dining area is very comfortable with great views north to Errigal or south to... More

It was first stay in a hostel for me, and I had a good experience. Staff was welcoming and helpful. Room (we had twin room for two people) was clean, bedlinnen was provided at check-in. The main point for me is: location. Many must see places are located next to it. Good for the price.

We have just returned from a wonderful weekend at Errigal Hostel - cosy, friendly, clean, with everything provided that you could ask for, and the views and location are just amazing. Had such a lovely weekend we have booked to return in July.

Beautiful views in a comfortable Hostel await you at this little get-away. It is not a 5 star resort, but a clean and comfortable 4 bed per room hostel with shared bathrooms. My husband and I were lucky enough to stay here in the off season, and were the only ones in the hostel, so had a room to ourselves.... More

I stayed at this hostel for 2 nights and it is probably the best hostel I have stayed at ever. The whole thing looks pretty new are at least recently renovated. It is a nice anchor point if you are planning to tackle Mount Errigal and there is a small shop and a petrol station just next to the hostel.... More

Excellent hostel for hikers/nature lovers. Very friendly staff. Clean rooms, kitchen and toilets. One of the best self-catering kitchens of hostels I have been. Basic but clean, warm and big showers. There is a nice little pub 200m away. Mount Errigal requires 3.5km walking from the hostel on tarmac before you actually climb it. The problem is getting there by... More

While we didn't stay at Errigal Hostel, we did visit, and spoke to Karl about climbing nearby Errigal Mountain. He runs the place with his family, and he was incredibly helpful and welcoming, even though we weren't staying. He directed us to the best path to climb the nearby mountain, which he climbs almost every day. The location of the... More

buon rapporto qualità prezzo, posizione bellissima, staff genitlissimo, stanze belle e accoglienti, cucina molto ben equipaggiata e sala da pranzo comoda e luminosissima. Ottimo per passeggiate o trekking. C'è anche un pub a 5 minuti a piedi, e un negozietto di alimentari proprio di fianco. Ci siamo stati 2 notti con un gruppo di amici, e sicuramente ci tornerei. good... More
