Errigal Hostel is a quiet and simple hostel in the middle of Ireland's nature. The rooms are big, beautiful and well furnished and the staff is friendly. There's a big kitchen which provides anything you need for cooking and a wide dining room with toys for children. The surroundings are of course breathtaking, and Errigal Hostel is a great place...

This hostel has breathtaking scenery around it! I stayed here for one night with 4 friends during a road trip around Ireland. We could park right in front of the hostel which was great. It seemed very new and well kept and the kitchen was very well equipped. The room we stayed in, 6-dorm, was very nice and plenty of... More

Stayed here for two nights. This hostel is a very good choice if going hiking in the area because it is very close to the different trails leading up to the mountains surrounding the hostel. It is in a very scenic area. It is not close to any towns so you would need a car. There is a garage in... More

I stayed here twice in the summer of 2011, once with friends (all in our 20's) and once with my mother (in her early 60's) and had an excellent experience of the hostel both times. It is the perfect location for hillwaking or hiking. The hostel itself is really new and clean and has a much more luxurious feel to... More

I visited the hostel in winter and although there were few guests the hostel was open and well heated. The staff were friendly and welcoming with plenty of information on activities available. The rooms were tidy and well presented. The location is in a scenic valley at the foot of Donegal's highest peak, Errigal. The views are breathtaking and the... More

The Limerick climbing club used Errigal hostel as its base, it was very clean and perfect location for hill walking. The facility was very clean and modern with a shop next door and a pub within 200 metres. A big thanks to Karl and his staff for making our stay so pleasurable and with the good weather we got to...

Surprised there is only a few reviews on this hostel. It is well written up by Lonely Planet and deservedly so, it is very, very good. Practically new the stonework is superb, the room I had I managed to jag a dorm by myself, in May, and in beautiful weather. And at the foot of the mountain so what a... More

This was the second stay at the errigal youth hostel for my girlfriend and I. No doubt about it, we will be heading to it again for a third time someday soon! Last year we had stayed with another couple in one of the 6-bed mezzanine, which was fantastic. This time we were in one of the 2-bed ensuite rooms.... More

As youth hostels go, this has to be one of the best in Europe. At the foot of the majestic Errigal, Donegal's highest peak, and directly adjacent to the Poisoned Glen (don't let the name fool you, as it is full of life), this place is a gem. Newly refurbished, the hostel has a great kitchen and common room, with... More
