Not bad, a 5 - 10 minute walk from shops and bars. But was going through needed refurbishment when I was there, so a little old and untidy. Looks to improve however. More

This hostel is 2 different buildings, the Lodge, and the Chalet. I stayed in the Chalet which was brilliant, free pancake batter on a morning, free use of the kitchen which was really good, a small laundry room, en suite bathroom in the dorm, lots of windows which made for an airy room, but the biggest plus was the huge...

I stayed in the SameSun in July and it was fine. Banff was pretty busy, but I found a decent room (not in the newer part, but the oldder part). The people I was sharing with were fine, they weren't noisy, didn't pinch anything and we only met up when we were coming back or going out. Which is why... More

Stayed at Samesun middle of July for a couple of nights. the hostels location rivals that of other more expensive hotels!! (its on the main drag on Banff Avenue) Yes the room was an 8 bed dorm, however it had lots of windows to let in air and light, plenty of plug sockets for everyones gadgets, and a bathroom in... More

This place was awesome. Some of the nicest rooms I've come across! Spacious, clean and ensuite so you have a bit more privacy than in most hostels. The bar downstairs was fun and an easy place to make friends. A group of swiss guys were nice enough to invite me to join their team for scattegories night! More

They have a lot of claims which doesn't live up to the money it costed ($70 for two people per night): Parking: only about 10 spots in total for about 100 people. 3 or 4 of those spots are always "reserved", meaning the guests have no access. Pancake Breakfast: a bowl of pancake batter for you to make it yourself.... More

A great hostel! Everything was good. Free breakfast, cool bar to meet people, rooms spacious. I Had a room away from the bar, otherwise people said the music was loud on some nights. But was a great place in a great location and would highly recommend it to everyone of all ages More

overall, great experience, and i can recommend it. staff were always friendly and helpful (even late at night), friendly atmosphere and other travelers were cool. top location too. only minor gripes: wireless needs some serious work, pub crawl was good but descended into a shemozzle half way through.

Stayed here over Christmas with my younger sister in an 8 bed mixed dorm. The room would have been really crowded if there was ever more than 6 people staying in it and there wasn't enough lighting. The room had it's own gas fire place, tv and bathroom with a large bath. It was about a 5-10min walk to the... More
