What's it like at HI Banff Alpine Centre?!

I spent a week at the Alpine Centre - what's there?

I had a great week out by the rockies staying in Banff at the HI Alpine Centre - I thought it was only right to show you a little bit of what is there, what the people are like and what you can get up to....

Cool - I'm immortalized forever! Caught in your video singing "500 Miles" with the crowd... I think that the Storm Cellar is the best hostel pub I've ever been to, whenever there is an event night the audience always becomes part of the show, whether on stage or not. Others try, these guys succeed. Well done, HI-Banff!

My fiance and I love this place! We don't even bother looking for a hotel or motel when we stay in Banff! The private cabins are actually more comfortable than the Rimrock (honestly) and make a fantastic getaway.

Kali - I couldn't agree more! Have you tried the HI-Lake Louise Alpine Centre? Great people, with a chilled vibe....Hey so your getting married, congrats! I tied the knot at the HI-Banff, what a great weekend, cheaper than the RImrock too...with a family intimacy that you can't get anywhere else
