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. 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.

Set in Jasper, Jasper East Hostel - Near Jasper National Park East Gate Entrance features a shared lounge. The hostel offers both free WiFi and free private parking.

All guest rooms at the hostel come with a private bathroom and bed linen. Lovely little hostel. It felt very much like the guesthouses I have stayed in in some parts of Europe. The rooms were clean, comfortable and very nicely equipped. The main gathering areas were comfortable and had everything you need. The staff were very welcoming as well. Lots of parking! Directions given were great as it is out of GPS range and made it super easy to find. I would definitely stay again.
