Beautiful views and friendly staff! It was a little confusing on how to get inside after hours but we managed! Having showers/bathrooms close to our room was great as well.

Can there be a more beautifully situated hostel anywhere in the UK? A lovely spot. Very well equipped kitchen, spacious lounge and dining room and comfortable beds perfect for a kip after a hill day. Staff are super friendly and helpful. One of the loveliest hostels I've stayed in

Auberge de jeunesse Ratagan
Nous avons eu une chambre pour 4 pour notre famille. 4 lits simples . Le toilette et lavabo était sur notre palier, la douche un étage au-dessous; nous n’avons jamais eu à attendre pour les utiliser.
Literie confortable, prises usb.
Accès internet dans le salon et les pièces au-dessus (c’était notre cas).
Accès à la cuisine, très bien équipée, ce qui permet de se faire un repas chaud tranquillement.
Présence d’une laverie et salle de séchage, non utilisés.
Nous avons été très bien accueillis par Suzanne qui s’est intéressée à notre voyage et nous a fourni un plan pour notre journée du lendemain.

We had visited with family and friends aged 13 to 65. The overall experience was great. The common facilities were clean and well maintained. The most fascinating part was the scenic beauty around the hostel. Enjoyed the sunrise over the lake with a cup of tea in front of the hostel. The location is also very convenient for visiting the Highlands.
