I stayed here on my Lands End John o Groats cycling tour. oldbatonabike.wordpress.com The Hostel has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Staff were friendly and helpful. The cycle store is very small for the number of people who cycle on Arran and it would be an improvement if a bigger cycle store with some basic tools could be... More

I have stayed at the youth hostel during all my three visits to this beautiful island over a span of 2 years, and always have the same delightful experience. The first two visits, I was travelling alone and stayed in the dorms. The bunk beds are surprisingly comfortable and if you are armed with ear plugs and eye masks, good... More

Stayed 2 nights in September in twin room. Excellent facilities in room. Good size well-equipped self-catering kitchen. The whole inside has had much money spent on its renovation. Good location and friendly staff. Car is an advantage to get to rest of island.

Stayed in September 2012, its a very clean, smartly renovated place, and ok priced. But for the location, and the building, its rather souless and dreary compared to many hostels. For those using public transport it struggles in terms of value against cheap end B&Bs at the southern end of Arran which have better public transport links.

Had an overnight stay at Lochranza SYHA, it was great and ticked all the boxes - clean, fresh, comfy and affordable. The self-catering kitchen is fabulous! Check-in staff really friendly and helpful, and the cleaning staff in the morning were chatty and keen to give tips on the best places to go to spot seals :-) Had the delight of... More

Just after refurbishment, en-suite bathrooms with showers, extra showers in the corridor for crowded mornings, amazing kitchen with everything you need from small parties to big events. Wifi, lounge (separated from the dining area) with TV to relax, comps.. I would just... More

It was a very spontaneous decision to stay here (cheapest bed and breakfast at the ferry terminal was 100 pounds!) so we opted for the Hostel. Best one I've ever stayed in. Commercial kitchen, cubbieholes for 'stuff', bunk beds comfy. (okay, the blanket was a little narrow, but only because I'm not on the narrow spectrum! I won't hold that... More

Just back from a 4 night stay at Lochranza and enjoyed every minute of it. We had a 4 bed en suite room for the family. OK it's not that cheap (about £75 per night) but the facilities are excellent. Being able to wash filthy gear after a day out walking and dry everything in a great drying room does... More
