Tobermory Youth Hostel
About About this youth hostel
In the centre of town, right on the main street, Tobermory Youth Hostel is one of the many brightly painted buildings on the seafront overlooking the town's picture postcard harbour, busy with boats coming in and out all day.
Surrounded by shops, restaurants and art galleries, the youth hostel is an ideal location for families, seafood enthusiasts, marine wildlife watchers and a great base for exploring other areas of the island, by car, bike or on foot.
Tobermory Youth Hostel offers a range of shared accommodation and private rooms and is great for smaller groups, families and individual travellers looking to discover the beautiful Isle of Mull. In addition to its seafront location (many rooms have sea views) the youth hostel has a small enclosed garden at the back with a picnic table - ideal for morning coffee or lunch.
Facilities include a laundry and drying room, cycle shelter, free WiFi, well-equipped self-catering kitchen and lounge with toys, books, television and DVD player.

My stay at this hostel was exceptional, in large part due to Matthew and Carolina. They were helpful, patient, upbeat, kind, and ever so many other positives. I hope Syha recognizes them for their professionalism ...and just how wonderful they are!A Calgarian Abroad

Our rooms were big, and the kitchen and common room with toys are a good place to take a break with little children. With the destillery, the lighthouse walk, and the aquarium, Tobermory harbour offered things to see and do for us for several days.Martin

See if you can be in a front facing bedroom, so you get the beautiful views. The back bedrooms look into the cliff face. Although they may be quieter.Mary

Probably the cleanest hostel in which I have stayed. Excellent kitchen and dining area. Common room and single room in which I stayed were basic but more than adequate. Very accessible for buses, food shops etc. Best things were the kind and helpful staff and the brilliant view of the harbour. The waves are practically lapping at the door! Would definitely stay again.DUTCHIEBOAT

This hostel offers everything needed for a cycling and multi activity holiday – space to store the bike and a drying room to dry the clothes after a long day outdoors. The facilities are perfect the relax and regenerate for the next days activity. This hostel is a perfect base for some excellent cycling around the north west part of the Isle of Mull, either road cycling or a little bit of off road cycling in the nearby forrest.dl1ylb

Nice hostel in Tobermory. Room was spacious, and clean. Also bathroom was very clean. Only disadvantage was that bathroom was on ground floor; room was on second floor. Bikes could be parked in a shed in the garden. The hostel manager was very friendly and helpful.Bart
