I've stayed here twice now - the last time in July 2012 on my way to Berneray. I've got to admit, it's not the best place I've ever stayed. The bunk beds are unstable and there's no power sockets in some rooms. On the plus side, there were friendly staff and free tea and coffee. The internet's chargeable round here,... More

Uig youth hostel We(4 boys) had the pleasure of staying in Uig Youth hostel for a period of three days from 25-27 Aug 2012. The location of this hostel is very good with a very good view of the bay, but then Scotland and particularly Isle of Skye is full of breath taking views. Chris and Sara ( I hope... More

The hostel is clean and spacious. We used the private room and it was comfortable. However, an annoying feature was the flooded floor in the wash room and out of order shower. Clearly, it had been in this state for a while and could have easily been sorted by a plumber. I suspect that this is a sympton of SYHA's... More

Fabulous hostel perched on a hill overlooking the ferry terminal. Spacious, well equipped and lovely staff.The guy on reception really tried hard to make our stay as comfortable as possible. Not much going on in Uig, but take the single track road across Skye from here and enjoy spectacular scenery.

For anyone exploring the north of Skye, this hostel is a great option. The location is at the top of a small hill with an amazing view. The new staff duo (as of just two weeks ago) are very welcoming, friendly, helpful, informative and best of all wanting to make sure you as a guest are comfortable. Everything is clean!!,... More

This was one of my first experiences at staying in a hostel and I got to say the Uig hostel was one of the best views of Scotland I've ever seen. It stands on top of a hill overlooking the sea and Uig pier. The staff were very friendly and knowledgable on the local area including where some nice walks... More

We stayed in three hostels on Skye and found this one to be a so-so place (instead, we would recommend Glenbrittle YH). The hostel as such is clean and has the usual facilities: dorms, kitchen, common room, wash and dry room. The oldish guy at the reception was doing his job all right but appeared a little socially challenged. We... More

We were traveling from Skye to Harris so stayed here as it is 2 minute drive to the ferry. It is a very steep hill to get up to the hostel to start. We weren't aware that we weren't aloud in until after 5pm and arrived at 4.40 pm. We thought it was a bit strange but just waited patiently... More

Good starting point if you want to see the North of the Isle of Skye. The road that leads to the hostel could use a bit of work but overall it's a nice and cozy hostel. Pretty quiet although you'll find yourself surrounded by sheep if you go out for a quick walk.

They split the sexes so I couldn't stay with my friends I had to sleep in a dorm with strangers. There was only one shower and two toilets for all the girls and only two showers for all the men. They close the hostel to all guests between 10.30-5pm which seems a bit unfair if it were terrible weather. The... More
