Samesun Hostels
Samesun Hostels, an international network born out of a shared love for adventure, has been creating unforgettable experiences across Canada and the USA for over 25 years. With prime locations in Vancouver, Los Angeles, Montreal, Banff, San Diego, and Kelowna, this group of passionate travelers knows a thing or two about making the most of every trip.
A Manifesto with Meaning
The Samesun manifesto isn't just a collection of nice words—it's a philosophy that shapes every hostel in their network. They believe in nurturing a global community, valuing kindness, inclusion, and a deep respect for the planet. Their mission is simple but profound: to inspire small steps that lead to a big impact. After all, it’s these little changes that can make a world of difference.
The Joy of Social Travel
At Samesun, they know that a trip is about more than just the photos you take. It's about the unexpected adventures, the mishaps that turn into memories, and the late-night conversations with new friends that really make a journey unforgettable. Their hostels emphasize social travel because they believe that these connections are what truly enrich the travel experience. So, put down your phone, grab a drink at one of their bars, and start a conversation—you never know where it might lead!
Making the Most of Your Stay
Samesun encourages guests to immerse themselves fully in the cities they visit. With daily activities organized at every hostel, they make it easy to see the world through a traveler's eyes. Their goal? To send you home not just with photos, but with stories and a newfound love for the city you explored.
A Few House Rules
While Samesun is all about making connections, they do have a few rules to keep things running smoothly. Unfortunately, pets and emotional support animals need to stay at home. However, legitimate service animals are welcome as long as they’re on a leash and stay with their owner.
And in case you're wondering about breakfast—it's on the house! Just make sure to bring your credit or debit card, as they’re currently cash-free across all properties.
Final Thoughts
Samesun Hostels aren’t just places to stay; they’re gateways to experiences that could change your life. So, pack your bags, bring your sense of adventure, and get ready to see the world in a whole new way.
