No complaints about this place. A little expensive (for a hostel at least) at £15 a night AND an additional £2 for breakfast, but well located with basic but clean rooms and facilities. I found the staff to be friendly and helpful.

I stayed here as part of my LEJOG cycle ride. I arrived early pm and found the YHA very easily. It is at the top end of the highstreet. Upon arrival I tried to check in but was rudely told by the lady on reception to go away and come back in 30 mins. I did so and was treated... More

My friend and I stayed at this hostel in high anticipation - we heard it had a reputation to be jam packed full of entertainment opportunities, both from the variety of fellow backpackers who were likewise fun-minded and the abundance of exciting things to see and do in Pitlochry. Boy did they get that wrong. Our room was an 8... More

We stay one night in a familiy room for 4 persons. Room very small, very dirty without bathroom, sink and anything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It should be normal for an hostel? No, because we pay 18 pounds anyone!!!! Adding 3 or 4 pounds you can go in two twin rooms in a B&B: more confortable and with breakfast too!!!!

The location is perfect. Right on the main street. Adequate parking is at the rear and the rooms are perfectly acceptable. For a hostel it's a great place to stay. The staff are very friendly and helpful.

Well equipped kitchen, nice relaxed communal areas, not B&B luxury but we weren't looking for that and the rooms were clean and the beds comfy. Right in the centre of town so handy for eating out.

From greetings to goodbye I felt warmed and welcomed in this hostel. There is a good common area with games, books and a pool table. There's also a tv room with 100s of movies to watch if you feel like a night or day in. Breakfast and towel rental is good value, and there is free tea coffee and hot... More

The staff were friendly and helpful, but weren't always around, meaning that I occasionally had to wait some time for one of them to come to the desk. However, this was only a small problem. The rooms were fairly small and a bit shabby. Importantly, they were clean, relatively well lit, and had comfy beds. The quality of the location... More
