Exceptional staff—very friendly. Beautiful property, although it felt a bit ghostly in the winter because only a few people were staying in three floors of rooms. Didn’t hit my head sitting up in the top bunk. Kitchen was large and clean. Location isn’t central but definitely not as remote as it appeared on the map.

This 4-star VisitScotland accredited youth hostel is located in the west end of Aberdeen with transport links to the city center. There is free car parking to the rear of the building.

Refurbished in 2018,the hostel offers guests comfortable private rooms with attached bathroom as well as spacious shared accommodations with private lockers for those exploring the city on a budget.

Guests can opt for a continental breakfast, served daily in our café, or choose to prepare their own food in our well-equipped self-catering kitchen. The café also serves hot and cold drinks and a selection of confectionery and muffins throughout the day.

Relax in the large, bright, bay-windowed lounge, which has a wood-effect stove and wall-mounted television; or in the quiet room if you’re just looking to chill, or read up about Aberdeen’s must-see locations. Other facilities include free WiFi, laundry and drying facilities and secure bike storage.

The hostel also offers meeting facilities for up to 50 with flexible catering packages available.

Our quieter location is a pleasant 20-minute walk along a tree-lined road to Union Street - or take the number 11 bus for a short journey to the city center.

The hostel is also available for exclusive private rental.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 8.5 for a two-person trip.
