Boasting Rocky Mountain views, HI-Banff Alpine Centre offers a café and a bar. Free WiFi and self catering kitchens are available for guests to use. Banff town centre is 4 minutes' drive away.

HI Banff provides each guest a free bus pass for the local transport system. Discounted ski packages, bike rental vouchers, and Summer rafting tickets are available. This is a spacious and comfortable campsite. The common areas are great for relaxing—you can play board games, read, or even work in small rooms equipped with desks. There’s also a bar in the basement where you can play pool and enjoy a beer. Occasionally, the hostel organizes activities, giving visitors the chance to connect, have fun, and meet new friends. The hygiene is impressive. Despite people constantly coming and going, the facilities—including the bathrooms, kitchen, and laundry—were always clean whenever I used them. The hostel is located away from downtown, allowing you to enjoy the natural beauty of Banff in peace. My roommates were very polite and made an effort to keep quiet, even when returning late at night. I was lucky to have such considerate and respectful roommates. Overall, I enjoyed the trip in Hi Banff~
