We had all the facilities we could have wished for. We had a double room with a double bed and two bunk beds, quite spacious with a large en suite shower room. The manager Marie was so welcoming and friendly, with a wealth of local knowledge,always on hamd to assist. This was our first experience of a hostel stay, and will definitely stay again! The hostel is well sir

This is an absolute gem of a hostel, spacious and beautifully kept. The beds were so comfortable and the whole place was spotlessly clean. The kitchen was fully equiped with everything we could have needed, with plenty of tables chairs and sofas in the common room. Helmsdale is a beautiful location, with fabulous sea views.

Marie is a fabulous hostess! She was waiting for us outside in the back yard. She even helped unload and carry in the luggage. The room had an ensuite. It was very clean, quiet and comfortable. It is right off the road and so easy to find! The kitchen was well equipped.

We booked for an overnight stay on the way to a trip to Orkney. This hostel is a real find! From start to finish the booking process, welcome on arrival, comfort and hospitality was excellent. Marie is a superb host. She kept in touch and she was ready to welcome us when we arrived. She had the fire lit, the kettle on and essentials in the kitchen to make our stay comfortable. I personally think she went above and beyond any expectation! Wonderful welcome. The rooms are big, airy and very comfortable. Everything you need is ready. The place is immaculate and the shower room very well kitted out. Local knowledge was also most helpful (walks, hospitality available in area, shops etc. Truly unexpected as far as comfort and quality was concerned. This is a brilliant place - and THANK YOU Marie, and Mollie the Collie! Highly recommend this place.

Marie was a lovely and friendly host. Everything we needed was supplied by our host. The bedrooms were super clean with fresh bedding and we had the best nights sleep! The private en suite in every room was perfect for more privacy and gave the hostel a luxury feel. Highly recommend staying here and only a 5 mins walk to the shop and restaurants/takeaways. Have to say that Molly the border collie was definitely my favourite part of our trip! We were here for a university fieldtrip and it was such a great place to come home to at the end of the day. If we could give it more stars we would!! Thank you so much Marie.

Everything about Helmsdale Hostel was superb, from booking, to paying, my arrival, stay and departure. Marie is a lovely host and was so helpful with wet camping gear, local information, simple washing, and a delight to be welcomed by. The room was spotless, comfortable, airy and light and the bed as comfortable as I would wish. My only regret was that I had to leave early and was unable to say thank you and goodbye in person. I want to come back to Scotland if only to stay here again......
