About Us

We pride ourselves on offering a clean, professional, friendly service and believe people pay to actually sleep at a hostel, not party all night. We aim to provide quality, budget accommodation for backpackers.

Located in front of Inverness Castle, Bazpackers is an old Victorian town house built in 1826 and converted in 1996 to form a modern hostel. We are the smallest hostel in Inverness and just 5 minutes from the city centre, close to everything but out of the city centre noise.

We aim to provide quality, budget accommodation for backpackers As well as full self catering facilities we have a wonderful lounge centred about the original stone fireplace and a walled Victorian garden with fantastic views out over the River Ness. As our feedback shows we are not a "party" hostel with loud music and a constant party running in the common room like other places - instead there is a great opportunity to actually talk to people and socialise and also sleep at night when you go to bed.

All non private rooms have new secure lockers and there is a 24 hour staff presence. We offer great flexibility with mostly private quads, twins and double rooms but also offer six bedded dorms at a cheaper rate. We have a small female-only dorm for those female travellers who prefer this option.
