Canadiana Backpackers Inn in Kunming, Kanada

Had a lovely stay, amazing location, friendly staff, clean facilities... what a hostel should be Dana, from Canada ~ 23rd May 2012

I was very disappointed to find the kitchen in a windowless room in the basement, with very little in the way of usable utensils. The other thing was that it was insanely loud in the afternoon and evening in the common area downstairs, with various people blasting computer music without any consideration for others and none of the staff asked them to keep it down. A party atmosphere in a hostel is not necessarily a bad thing, as long as there is the possibility to escape from it, not here though

Hello Sarah, thanks for your feedback. Thank you for your suggestion about the kitchen, we have addressed the issue and have already bought new pots and pans, knives, forks and other utensils so that next time you’re back in town you are fully equipped! Good point with the noise, it sometimes gets really busy and we do let guests know that there are other people around that may be bothered by it. Sorry you were disturbed by it.

Great Hostel to meet people! Location is great, it is right Downtown in the middle of the action: clubs, restaurants, chinatown, stores to go shopping, etc. The staff was very helpful and always trying hard to keep the area clean!!! lots of bathrooms with showers!! the area looked safe. I never felt unsafe while walking at night to the hostel. I usually stay at hostels. I highly recommend it!

Thank you so much for your recommendation! We’re glad you enjoyed your stay and made new friends in our hostel. Make sure to follow us on Facebook to keep in touch and updated with what’s going on at Canadiana. Hope to host you again soon!

Despite the age difference, we are in our 60s and all the others were university-age, we enjoyed interacting with them in the very cozy common lounge dining room. However I must say the hostel could use more shower facilities, or is it that young people tend to stay in the showers longer? I must also add that sleeping on our second night was very difficult as the partying went on and on and got louder and louder as more alcohol got consumed. Quiet time should be at 2:00 am and should be enforced Mari, from Canada ~ 22nd Apr 2012

The Canadiana Backpackers Inn is my favorite hostel in Toronto. They offer free breakfast, free wifi, free lockers to rent out, and a large living room to meet new people around the world. The rooms are super clean, and the staff are very friendly. The location is also very central downtown. Overall, I would highly recommend this hostel. It is the best in Toronto!

The location is awesome! Right in the middle of King & Queen. First time I had ever stayed in a hostel and it made me want to do it again! Organized events every night and free coffee in the mornings. The staff was nice & friendly as well. I've already decided that if I go back to Toronto, I will probably book this hostel again!! ONE complaint though the rooms were WAY too hot!!! Almost made it hard to sleep at night :( Sallie, from USA ~ 21st Mar 2012
