We enjoyed our stay at Stravaigers. Easily found from Fort Augustus town centre and only a few minutes walk from lots of pubs and cafes. The rooms were clean, functional, with electricity sockets. The walls are a bit thin but nowhere near as bad as many other hostels! Big functional kitchen and lounge area. Warm and dry. Drying room was... More

A group of 4 of us stayed here for 1 night in May 2013 whilst walking the Great Glen Way. This lodge ticked all the boxes for appearances as it looks very new and clean. It would have benefited from better sign posting from the Great Glen Way itself as we had a little trouble finding it. The beds were... More

In the nice village of Fort Augustus there's only one hostel and this is it. It is a hut kinda hostel, cheap (£17) and very near the town center. They have shared bathroom and very small rooms with nothing more than a bunk bed. You can make your own breakfast in the morning at the kitchen. Bunk beds were lousy,... More

We have stayed there for one night and really loved it! We booked a bunk room for 20 pound each. The room had a bund bed in and nothing else, but as we stayed for only a night, that wasn't much of a problem. The facilities were very clean and spacious! The kitchen has everything you need: 2 stoves, a... More

On the second half of August I was on my grand tour in Scotland. One of my stops happened to be Fort Augustus. I stopped at Stravaigers Loge which is hostel in the town. Not to bad. This environment is only for sleeping. Nothing else. They have a big fat cat which is sleeping all day long and going out... More

Long hard slog brought us to the little village of Fort Augustus, the tourist slogan for the village - "best kept secret of the highlands" wasn't far off the truth until it was outdone a little later. Originally camping before spotting this hostel, set 5 minutes from the locks, reasonably priced at £17 a head we quickly opted to bunk... More

We stayed here 02/06/2012 and had rooms 4,5 (twin room £22). The rooms were very clean,nice,warm and looks new. It was very quiet area near to Loch Ness lake in Fort Augustus. In the kitchen was everything you need for cooking and breakfast was simple, but fresh. Reception girl was very polite and nice. You have to ask for towels... More

Stayed here last week for one night while doing the Great Glen Way. Turned up just before they closed up for the day without a booking and was greeted warmly by the proprietors. At this point we were short of money until the following day and they said it would be fine if we could pay the next day. Informed... More

I have never posted a negative review before as I work in hostels myself and I know how one sided these reviews can be and how easily things can get negatively misinterpreted for the sake of someone looking for a freebie, however; There is no way that this hostel comes close to 4 stars. I have stayed in many hostels... More

We were not planning to get a hotel in Ft. Augustus because we were camping along the Great Glen Way. It was starting to rain, so instead of camping at Stravaiger's we decided to get a twin room. No frills, but very clean. Breakfast of cereal, bread and juice available in the shared kitchen. Close to the sights in Ft.... More
