Jasper National Park Auberges de Jeunesse

"… offre un peu de tout à ses visiteurs et est particulièrement accueillante et rafraichissante. Le centre ville (qui se compose de deux petites rues) permet de s’imprégner de l’atmosphère de cette petite ville ainsi que de son hospitalité et de son style particuliers. La vie nocturne consiste en une soirée agréable et relaxante dans le patio de l’auberge, avec les montagnes et le soleil couchant en toile de fond. Une fois le soleil couché, profitez du feu de camp tout en partageant des histoires, des blagues et vos aventures du jour...  more »

"Quiet, beautiful scenery, chilled, friendly, perfect - I had my 21st birthday here in june 2005 and have never stayed in a better hostel -- i have visited many over the years. I can't remember the owners name but she was very welcoming as were her dogs which kept any curious bears away. It was back to basics with enough to keep you comfortable. Good social areas and not a place to have a wild rave but a good party. Amazing! When i go back to Canada i'm gonna be sure to stop by. Thanks for the memories." … "We both feel that our...  more »

"HI-Beauty Creek Hostel earns above-average marks for a wilderness hostel. Although there are many beds to a dorm room, they have rigged up an outdoor shower (try to get in early before hot water runs out). Propane powers everything -- there's no electricity. The hostel is well-kept, so don't be surprised to find the crew sprucing up the place during the day. The best feature, however, is the all-you-can-eat pancake breakfast -- they're homemade with fruit and chocolate chips in the batter if you want -- for a small price. They'll even give...  more »

"Great Canadian Wilderness Experience! - Anyone staying here has to remember what it is -- a wilderness hostel with no running water, so it's really basic. The place was kept hygienic, but being a wilderness hostel had an old and worn feel to it. In other words there may be some cobwebs, but no bedbugs or anything else infectious. The mattresses were the rubber kind with four or six beds per dorm. The hostel itself is arranged as a group of several buildings, with a couple of dorm cabins and a common kitchen cabin. There are outhouses and no...  more »
