We found this hostel. staff welcoming, friendly and helpful. The dorms clean and warm. The facilities were good and had everything we needed. Their breakfast was good too. Great location and parking right outside the door. All in all, yes its basic, its a hostel but we thought it was good value for money.

Our stay at Tobermory Youth Hostel was a bit disappointing. It has great location, but seemed to have lots of problems. Microwaves didn't work, toasters didn't work and the toilet didn't work! Our experience with the staff was also mixed. The guy was friendly and helpful, but the woman cold and disinterested. Hostel seems to have lots of rules, with... More

Ok, so I looked on-line for budget accommodation in Tobermory and find this hostel. It's £19 in October which is a lot more than I've paid anywhere else on this trip so I expect a good standard. While I didn't plan to go out that night it's still not nice to be told what time you have to be in... More

The main thing that struck me upon staying at this hostel is that needs to be modernised, both in terms of its attitude towards the people paying to stay there, and its facilities. The staff were curt and at times, unfriendly. (I had to go back and ask for a key for each person. At checkout I was not asked... More

We were treating ourselves with a nice meal so we went for the cheaper accomodation option. Now, I'm sure when I phoned to check I was told their private rooms were on-suite...... but it would appear their was a mix up when we arrived as we had been allocated a 6-bed dorm to ourselves. This meant bunkbeds (but we put... More

The service at this youth hostel left a lot to offer, the management seemed to do everything to inconvenience their customers and were not of any help. I have yet to find the policies on which they claim to make their decisions about when facilities are to be open for paying hostel guests. There was a curfew at midnight despite... More

stayed here just one night on a cycle tour of the island with friend. Very nice location right on the habour front with lovely views, staff very helpful and friendly. Have stayed in many styles of accomodation in the past; B& B'S, bunk rooms, climbing huts, tents, hotels, etc but the hostel here at Tobermory was desperately noisy when it... More

Great location on the harbourside but quite noisy. The walls are thin so you can hear people coughing next door and the floorboards creaking when people get up at night to go the loo. Hostel needs an update- especially the kitchen and showers. That said the Manager is a very friendly and helpful lady and the views from the rooms... More

I found the staff rude and conflicting, creating an unpleasant atmosphere for everyone. A 12am curfew is one thing but kicking you out of the rooms and kitchen at 10am till 1pm is ridiculous and when I approached a member of staff about the reasoning for this she got extremely defensive and claimed it was like this at every YHA!...
