Canmore Downtown Hostel

Clean, friendly and welcoming. We booked a private room for a 10day stop-gap before our lease started and we were not looking forward to staying at a hostel, but we were very plesantly surprised with how nice it turned out to be. We meet some lovely friends and had a great time, would absolutely stay again.

Great location to walk into town, or get the bus. Rooms were spacious and very clean. There are lockers for suitcases and curtains around each bed. There is a toilet and shower in each room. The underground parking is included. The kitchen has everything I needed. Staff were very friendly and helpful. It seems like people can stay for extended periods and they form friendships. Quiet time is enforced. Definitely would stay again again.

First time staying in a hostel and in a mixed dormitory too! Am very impressed overall with the attached bathroom and shower within each dorm, the curtains for each bunk bed giving you the privacy you needed and the access security to each dorm. The kitchen is big and clean with all the appliances you need. The common area is bright with the windows that gives you the gorgeous views of the Rockies. The location is fantastic with the bus stop in front that goes to/from Banff. You can still hear the sound of train passing through the town but not as loud as some of the accommodations next to the railway track. Would definitely stay here again if I am travelling solo!

Beautiful spot with awesome mountain views. Front desk staff were lovely and helpful. Kitchen was clean and functional. Stayed in the 8 bed shared room with ensuite bathroom. The privacy curtains, bedside power outlet, night light and locker made my stay more comfortable and convenient. Location was perfect. Away from downtown Canmore but was part of a complex with food options. Parking was good with a parking lot right outside the hostel with a carpark should that be full. Only feedback I have is that it would’ve been good for the bathroom sink to be larger as it was difficult to wash your face without water ending up on the floor.

This hostel is probably the nicest & newest facility I’ve ever stayed in. Very impressed with the cleanliness. I stayed in an all female dorm with bathroom & shower. The hostel is in a shopping center & convenient food options & right next to a bus stop. The busses are free around Canmore as well! My only concern was another female in the dorm’s lack of consideration. She took a shower for nearly an hour around 5am when the rest of us were trying to get our day started. Gotta be considerate when staying in a shared living space!

Charming hostel with friendly staff and a clean, peaceful environment. The only downside was some road noise outside. Conveniently located within walking distance of Main Street, with a bus stop to Banff right in front. A great choice for a longer stay.

I stayed here for CAD 73 per night per person, and while it is on the higher side for a hostel, the quality definitely matched the price. Everything was exceptionally clean, and the overall standard of the place attracted guests who respected the space and atmosphere. The dorms were well set up with curtains on all beds for privacy and large lockable cupboards for storage, though you need to bring your own lock. Fresh linen and towels were provided, but guests are expected to make their own beds and return everything to a washing bin at checkout. The kitchen was one of the best I’ve seen in a hostel—fully equipped with multiple sinks, a large fridge, plenty of appliances, and even an air fryer. Bathrooms were unisex but always available, very clean, and had consistently hot showers. The staff were welcoming and friendly, and the common room was spacious with lots of seating, making it easy to relax or socialize. Free parking was available outside, and the Wi-Fi worked without issues. Overall, this hostel was a great experience, and I would absolutely stay here again. The higher nightly rate was well worth it for the comfort and quality provided.

Great hostel. Super clean and everyone was very friendly. Also in a central location where it’s easy to walk to convenient stores, restaurants, etc. would definitely stay here again!
