Unbelievable sights of the mountains nestled in the valley!! Winter wonderland in the middle of this quiet small town. Staff were gracious and funny. The bar and pub kitchen onsight was a cool place to mingle with other travelers, all while having other food options across the street. I definitely will come here again.

I had a lovely stay. Everyone was so friendly and nice! Bed was comfortable, bathroom and trash were cleaned daily. I like the little curtain for privacy.

The staff here are amazing—friendly, helpful, and welcoming. The room is a bit tight for the number of beds, but it’s manageable. Adding privacy curtains to the bunk beds would make a big difference, especially given the limited space. The facilities are decent and kept clean. It’s conveniently located near the bus station. The location is great—away from the hustle and chaos of the town center and closer to the mountains, just the way I like it. Overall, it’s a great value for money and a solid spot to meet other backpackers and solo travelers.

The bed was comfortable, the bathroom was clean, and the kitchen was well equipped. Drinking water (non-tap water) and morning coffee were complementary.

All hostels in Canmore

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

Very clean, great location, amazing views of the mountains from the chill area and the rooms. The kitchen facilities were very good, and I liked the bed curtains for privacy and the fact the bunk beds are secured to the wall so they don’t rattle when the person above is getting into bed.

Best hostel I’ve stayed in. Rooms were very clean as were bathrooms. The beds also have curtains which is a great thing in hostels gives you much more privacy. Staff were very helpful with any questions and they have lots of flyers for information of what to do in the area.

The hostel is very well designed and well managed. One of the best. My only discomfort was the air becoming stuffy in the dormitory. Due to someone closing the only window during the night. A minimum amount of default ventilation should be guaranteed in dormitories containing several occupants.

Absolutely fantastic place! I loved everything from the welcoming staff to the great rooms, the people, the kitchen! It became like a home to me and it was just perfect. Was without a doubt the best hostel I’ve ever stayed in and I’ve travelled for 9 years all over the world. Loved the curtains of the room so much.
