Worked well for my first week in whitefish until I was able to find a place. Being central to downtown is very helpful as well. The two sisters are amazing and run an awesome hostel. Thanks again.

Nice little hostel!
Really loved how cosy this hostel was - great location for getting into Whitefish by foot. Stayed here whilst exploring Glacier, staff were lovely and accommodating to both my late arrival and using the facilities after checking out and waiting for my train! Would definitely stay here again!

Whitefish hotels are expensive as a rule. I don't normally like to share my space, but these hosts made me feel at home, and I got along with the other guests quite well. The physical plant was an older house that they converted to a Hostel. There was plenty of bathrooms and showers for all of us, and he hosts had homemade banana bread ready for our breakfast. I'd stay here again if and when I return to Whitefish

Great hostel - quiet, clean, and friendly.
Extremely friendly and knowledgable staff, clean rooms, relaxing - no party atmosphere like some hostels. Very laid-back. Beds are comfy and facilities are more than adequate. Close to downtown and the Amtrak depot.

Comfy hostel!
I had a great stay at the Whitefish Hostel! A couple blocks from everything in town and a short 10 minute walk to the lake. The beds were super comfortable with the softest sheets ever for a great nights sleep. The owners are super friendly and make a killer banana bread!

Greatest hostel stay ever!
My stay was everything I had expected and hoped for and more! Only 3 years old super clean with comfortable memory foam beds and comfy comforters. Commons areas out back and front are so nice. Sister owners are very friendly and informative of the area. They run an organic cafe here and I left for hiking in Glacier nearly everyday with a delicious juice or smoothie in hand to enjoy on the drive. Started the morning off with coffee and banana bread! Meeting and hiking with other guests was an unexpected and delightful bonus which you don't get with a traditional hotel stay. My 8 day stay passed far to quickly! I will find a way to return to this welcoming place and the many adventures the area offers.

My train arrived early morning. I dropped my luggage and left for sightseeing throughout the day (ensure you called first after you placed the booking). When I arrived, concierge was still sleeping on the living room or cafe floor, but that's not a problem for me. When I checked-out, also in early morning, concierge was also still sleeping, but bread and tea was ready for the guests' breakfast. Location is within 10-15 minutes walking distance to Amtrak station. It may sound like a joke, traveling to the wild west without a car, but yes, I didn't rent a car and arrived/departed by train. So the hostel location is important for me. Didn't really like the room floor plan. Had to enter the big room (priority for the male guests, I think) to enter the small room (priority for the female guests?). Not enough electricity points to share among the 4 roommates; we live in gadget era these days. Rooms are in the 2nd floor, no elevator but not a big issue for me. Showers/toilet are in the 1st floor, shared between male/female guests. I do like the idea of this kind of small business. This is the only budget hostel in the small city. If you're looking for a luxurious and spacious space, may want to stay somewhere else.
