First time using a SYHA, which I was looking forward to, since it’s a charity. However, it’s not for us. The room is basic, and the beds were comfortable for myself and my daughter, which is what we expected. But, we were cold & the central heating was off, along with me not realising that it was a shared toilet & shower. At this point, I wasn’t fully discouraged, but after a fire alarm had us in the car park at 0100Hrs, which had us back inside quickly, but there was no head count or procedures followed. Then there’s other people who don’t give a dam how much noise they make, resulting in 4-5 hours sleep. Having paid £7 more per night, than the ensuite hotel room we stayed in, in Inverness the following 2 nights (which included breakfast), this was not value for money, nor somewhere we will return to. Just some common respect & decency by others would make all the difference, but that’s the age we live in.

Clean, comfortable stay

Overall, the hostel was nice. The staff seemed to pay extra attention to cleanliness. We had a twin room which had a sink, a night table, and several hooks to hang items. There was no soap or toiletries. There was no other table to place things. Bags went on the floor. The space was small, but adequate for two of us. There were private and gang showers and toilets. We didn't use the kitchen space, but it looked clean and was adequately supplied. Get there early or there will be no place to park.

Great yha to stay

It was great. So much better than expected. Beware only three people can cook at a time as there is only three cookers. That said the kitchen is a very good size and generally well equipped. Good sized dinning room. Overall the centre is well equipped, serviced and friendly helpfull staff. Add to boot about a ten minute walk to the town for supplies etc.

Eigenlijk vonden we dit een geweldige jeugdherberg. Alles wat je hier zag ws zo schoon en netjes opgeruimd. Heel bijzonder. Avimore is een heel leuke plaats, met veel eetgelegenheden. Achter de jeugdherberg vind je een mooi bergachtig gebied, Graigelachie.

No communication that facilities all shut!

No facilities on offer and nothing mentioned when booking! What is a youth hostel without any common area or cooking facilities! Port communication ruined our break.

We stayed in a 3-person room that had an en-suite bathroom with shower. It was great to be able to make our own meals and have access to a washing machine. It's within a quick walk of the centre of Aviemore, and right next to a great place for walks, Craigellachie National Nature Reserve.
