Halloween activities really good! Location is on Tunnel Mountain, there's a bus to the town or the walk is about 15 minutes. Really peaceful location with fantastic views of the rockies!

located outside of Banff downtown, you get a free busticket, but you have ask for it rooms were small, very dusty no privacy in bathrooms, but in general clean, showers were really bad big kitchen, but uncomfortable many things in the hostel were out of order internet (like in all hi-hostels)ist too expensive staff was friendly no hairdryer

Great atmosphere, the bar is one of the best in Banff. Activities and packages available are really fun and helpful eg the job seekers package. Everyone keeps coming back even after they've moved out. Could have more secure lockers in the rooms.

it wasnt not made clear that the hostel was at the top of the hill away from main town. i was in the first room and this was the worse place to be as each time someone paced through to the kitchen, bathroom, or their room the door clammed. very annoying and tiring. the staff were average, didnt go any above and beyond when asking questions or entering. the guy with long hair was nice and poilte.
