Located in the heart of Banff National Park and less than 10 minutes’ walk from Banff town center, YWCA Banff Hotel sits along the peaceful Bow River. In addition to striving to offer the best value for private room accommodations in Banff, YWCA Banff is a social enterprise hotel. This means that by booking a stay with us, guests are investing their vacation dollars into social services that empower local women and their communities for a better future. Rooms, which are basic in nature, do not include televisions, air-conditioning, or mini-fridges. This is part of the design to offering guests such an affordable option for accessing Banff. The property does offer 24-hour reception, guest laundry facilities, free wifi, and limited first come first serviced on-site parking.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.3 for a two-person trip.
