    The privacy curtains in the spacious eight-person room made me feel comfortable. I appreciated having a private shower and sink. The courtyard was a lovely space to relax in. I recommend this International hostel.

    Convenient location, close to downtown. Dorm-style rooms resembling a campus. Well-organized with continental breakfast and the option to cook for yourself. Clean room and bathroom. Comfortable beds with individual lights and USB power points. Friendly and helpful staff.

    I recently stayed at this 4-star hotel and had a fantastic experience. The location was awesome, with a free shuttle right next door to the skiing resorts, making it super convenient for outdoor activities. It was also within walking distance to downtown Banff and the grocery store, which was really convenient. The staff here were super nice and friendly, and they gave me some great advice for traveling in the area. The service was top-notch, with housekeeping always keeping the rooms clean and tidy. Plus, the hotel had great amenities like a terrace, dining table, and garden furniture, which made for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

    I highly recommend this hotel to everyone. The rooms were spacious and the beds were comfortable with privacy curtains for added privacy.

    Price and location

    It is usual hostel, not too clean, lack of privacy, thats OK, But some people seem to be workers living there for the season. They sit out in the courtyard, very loud and disrespectful, keeping everybody else awake.

    Great value for money, excellent location near downtown Banff and with basic amenities such as in-room fridge, private shower and large bathroom. The staff is friendly and attentive. Breakfast includes some sweets like brownies.

    No Wi-Fi in the rooms.

    The hostel had very friendly staff that was there to offer help whenever. They were very patient and did not mind being asked a lot of questions. It was my first time in Banff so I literally asked every question i could about the town and they were willing and also able to answer all of my questions. I felt very at home and warm staying at this hostel. Another good thing about staying at the hostel is that you get to dorm with other people so it was nice to meet others from all around the world. This is not the place to be if you want to live in luxury but it is the place to be for those travelling alone wanting to meet new people and have a lot of gun.

    Great value for money in the near downtown area with friendly staff and basic amenities. The in-room fridge was a convenient addition along with the large bathroom and comfy beds. The breakfast was delicious with brownies, adding a sweet touch to the meal.

    The sink area in the room was a bit noisy at night.
