The staff were extremely helpful and hardworking, always keeping the showers, toilets, and kitchen clean. The location was central, with easy access to the train station and nearby attractions. The lounge area was cozy and offered complimentary drinks and snacks, which was a nice touch.
The beds were not very comfortable and the bathrooms were small and a bit run-down. Additionally, there was limited seating in the bedrooms and the layout was not very practical.

For the price, Pitlochry Backpackers was great value! The room was cozy and warm, and the location was perfect for exploring the area. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our stay.
The breakfast option could use some improvement, perhaps by offering more variety in the food choices.

The staff member on reception was incredibly helpful and made our stay even better. We loved the central location of the hostel, making it easy to explore the area. The sitting room was a great place to relax, with a comfortable atmosphere and even a pool table. We also appreciated the clean and spacious rooms, providing plenty of space for us. The price of the hostel was a fantastic value compared to other options in town.
While the beds were acceptable, we did find that the en suite could use some updating. Additionally, the floors had some character/squeaks, so we had to wear earplugs to minimize the noise.

The staff at the hotel were very friendly and helpful, creating a welcoming and cheerful atmosphere. The rooms were spacious and clean, providing a comfortable stay. Additionally, the central location of the hotel made it convenient for exploring the town and its attractions.
The lack of additional facilities in the rooms, such as a boiler or coffee maker, was a downside. Additionally, the shared rooms could benefit from some extra storage options, like hooks or shelves, to avoid clutter and make guests' lives easier.

The location of this place was great, right in the heart of town. We were able to stroll to all the nearby pubs and cafes, which was a big plus. the free tea and coffee provided was also a nice touch, giving us a convenient pick-me-up in the mornings. And we found the car park located behind the hotel to be a real convenience.
There were a few downsides to our stay. the water pressure in both the sink and the shower was quite weak, making it difficult to properly rinse off.

Central location, friendly staff, and a cozy common living room make Pitlochry Backpackers a great choice for budget travelers. I loved the comfortable beds and the ensuite bathroom in my twin room. The hostel is well-maintained and offers laundry service. The location is perfect, right in the middle of everything and a short walk from the train station. Despite a few minor inconveniences, it was amazing value for money. I recommend this hostel for a fantastic stay in Pitlochry.
