Lock in a great price for Samesun Vancouver – rated 8 by recent guests!

to get started.

First Hostel i ever stayed in and had a great time. Something always going on every evening and can book into trips during the day. The staff are efficient with the daily clean and friendly. There are also good sized lockers in the room which could hold all of my more expensive items such as my laptop and digital SLR camera.

Theresa, South Africa

I am a 66 year old solo traveler. I rode my motorcycle over to Vancouver to attend a wedding. The Samesun was a 15 minute walk from the wedding venue. I was able to park my bike in the secured underground parking at the Holiday Inn, about a block away, for $24. Staff were friendly and helpful. This hostel is similar to hostels I stayed in when traveling through Spain. Shared room was clean. Bathrooms and showers were clean and looked recently renovated. I thought security was good, with card entry to stairs, 2nd floor, and room. Also, the front door is card entry after hours. I was able to unload and load my bike by parking temporarily on the sidewalk, near the entrance. I felt safe walking back from the wedding at 11:30 pm.

Dwayne, Canada

Everything was clean, everyone was friendly, the common areas were nice and the bed was comfy

Noralita, Germany

Very cool vibe, lots of fun activites to do with the hostel

Jenna, Canada

the everyday free trip is definitely adding value on the accommodation. Breakfast is good! unless there is occasional not fresh fruits. Everything is great. Overall, I will come back when next time visiting Vancouver.

Thee, China

The location was right downtown. The hostel has different activities every day and it is a great way to meet people! Also the bar is very nice with cheap drinks and food.

Kim, Netherlands

"Muffin" and the location of the hostel, it's very easy to walk around to any streets, main stores and bus stop. The staff were extra helpful. The room (bed) were comfortable, bonus if you get nice roommates. I like the concept of sharing food in free food section, donated some food there for other to eat .

Ulemba, India

Friendly people and staff, good breakfast, great location.

“A less expensive alternative to very high Vancouver hotel prices.”
- • Solo traveler
- • Bed in 6-Bed Dormitory Room
- • Stayed 1 night
눉On Saturday nights, they block off part of Granville street for some sort of entertainment. My room looked out on Granville, and because it was quite warm, the window had to be open. There was a lot of street noise until about 3 am. I would have used earplugs, had I known. I found out the front desk has earplugs available.
눇I am a 66 year old solo traveler. I rode my motorcycle over to Vancouver to attend a wedding. The Samesun was a 15 minute walk from the wedding venue. I was able to park my bike in the secured underground parking at the Holiday Inn, about a block away, for $24. Staff were friendly and helpful.
