Set in Drumnadrochit, 25 km from Inverness Castle, Loch Ness Bunk Inn offers accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a terrace and a restaurant. Offering a bar, the property is located within 26 km of Inverness Railway Station. The property is non-smoking and is located 29 km from University of the Highlands and Islands, Inverness.

The units at the hostel come with a seating area. Featuring a private bathroom with a shower, rooms at Loch Ness Bunk Inn also have free WiFi, while some rooms come with a mountain view. The room was like hotel room, with separated WC and shower in the room, which was very practical and comfortable. No hair dryer. Everything was very clean. Big shared kitchine with all you need, just there was no sel at that time, in other shared kitchins were used to be more spicies. But the oil was available. Nice quiet place near the river, behind the city. If you walk GGW, it is on the way. I didn´t use the restaurant so can´t judge it.

Located in Invermoriston, 39 km from Inverness Castle, Loch Ness Lochside Hostel - Over 16s Only provides accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a private beach area and a shared lounge. 40 km from Inverness Railway Station and 43 km from University of the Highlands and Islands, Inverness, the property offers a terrace and a bar. The accommodation features evening entertainment and free WiFi. Very friendly staff, and very friendly atmosphere. The cheapest hostel beds in the Scottish Highlands, as far as I searched online. Beds are quite comfortable, and what I particularly liked about the beds were: 1) each bed has its own USB and power outlet, 2) the bed-frames are physically affixed to the walls and they don't get shaken by other person in the bunk-bed. I particularly loved #2, and it shows whoever designed the hostel knows the common concerns among hostel backpackers. I wish more hostels implement these things.
