I stayed only one night because I had to catch a flight, but I wish I could stay longer. It was nice. The location is convenient. The staff are very helpful. The bunk bed is a bit small, but has everything I need. I like the fact that shower and toilet is in the same room and inside the bedroom.

I was on a solo trip and chose Samesun for its convenience; it’s just a 10-minute walk to the Banff Downtown. The room was clean, and the staff were enthusiastic and friendly. Samesun is a great choice for solo travelers.

ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!!

This was my first time staying in a hostel and honestly, it was a much better experience than I expected. The hostel is pretty decent, has a free breakfast, a good bar, and plenty of food spots nearby. Public transit is also super convenient, just a few meters outside the hostel. Overall, if you’re traveling on a budget, I’d definitely recommend this place. A few things to keep in mind: * Bring earplugs because some people snore and they obviously can’t help it * Carry a padlock for the locker if you plan to store valuables like your laptop or camera while going out * Bring comfortable slippers for using the washroom/shared areas and avoid walking barefoot * Carry your own essentials like moisturizer, sunscreen, toothpaste, etc. Overall, a solid budget-friendly stay.

Nice hostel place in downtown

Breakfast was fresh

Easy walk to shuttles to skibig3. Really friendly staff and other travelers to chat with. Good vibes at the bar.

Nota 10

Clean room with shower in it

I had a very pleasant stay at Samesun Banff Backpackers Hostel, and it truly exceeded my expectations. One of the best parts of my stay was the opportunity to meet so many fellow travellers from around the world—it created such a friendly and lively atmosphere. The rooms were very nice, comfortable, and impressively clean. I especially loved the cozy fireplace and the stunning mountain views, which made the hostel feel extra special after a long day of exploring Banff. One of the most iconic highlights of the hostel has to be the Beaver Bar. The vibe was amazing, with great music and fantastic drinks available all night. It was incredible to see people partying, socializing, and genuinely having the time of their lives. A special mention to the hosts—they were extremely kind, welcoming, and very accommodating with all kinds of requests, which made the stay even more comfortable and stress-free. Overall, Samesun Banff is the perfect place to stay if you’re looking for comfort, great views, and an unforgettable social experience. I’d happily stay here again!

Good and reasonable place to stay close to Banff ave and IGA supermarket. Also closeby near Squirell St close to Catholic Church. Its clean. Also room is clean and smell good. My only issue theres not enough space to hang out. They have common area but it easily filled up with young and bosterous people that likes to drink. Kitchen is nice and well equpped but with few sitting area it get filled quickly. Overall its a good place to stay esp if you are in a budget.

This was a great little hostel, very cozy. I don't typically stay in hostels but hotels in the area were way to expensive so I gave this a go. No regrets. I stayed in the all female room and we had our own on-suite bathroom and shower which was great (though it could use a bit more frequent cleaning, it wasn't bad though). Just a thing to note, if you value privacy, the curtains on the bunks don't cover everything, theres one end of the bed that they don't cover. Not a big deal if everyone else around you has their curtains closed, but yeah just a thing to note for people. Didn't find people too talkative, so if you wanted a social hostel, this might not be it, but for my purposes I was happy with it and would stay again.

Great location. The property itself is pretty tired, the shower had orange mold around the bottom edge and floor. There was no lid on the bathroom bin (it had broken and not been replaced) which was unpleasant with 6 females in the room! The kitchen is too small to even make a hot drink in if a few other people are using the space too.

Didn't sleep at all but the property, location, staff, amenities all fine.

ダウンタウンには歩いてすぐに行けます。 他のゲストは皆親切で、マナーが良かったです。 ほとんどは問題ありませんでしたが、滞在中一つだけ残念なことがありました。 2泊しましたが、初日に宿へ帰ると私の荷物がありませんでした。 フロントに尋ねたら荷物は全てベッドから回収されていました。 その後は別の部屋に案内されましたが、すぐにルームキーをもらうことが出来ず、何時間か待つことになりました。 私はどうすれば良かったのでしょうか？

I'm really sad to be leaving....it was truly a magical stay here for me....the staff is kind and caring and the facility itself is really great....I already miss being there...

Staff are nice and location is great to go around.

Nothing too bad. The room is quite big. However the bunk bed is not steady enough. You can feel bed shaking and the sound when people moving on the top bed. Bathroom is clean and the toilet paper supplies enough.

Very helpful staff

I loved the vibe of the place . Place was kept clean . Only complaint would be the AC , felt it was on a high temperature setting and dint cool the room much . It felt stuffy and hot. We kept the windows open all the time.
