Episode Description:
In this episode of Hostel Road Trip, we visit HI Vancouver, one of the most unique Hostelling International properties in Canada. We speak with the team at HI Jericho Beach, the oldest HI hostel in Canada, located right on the beach in Vancouver.
We dive deep into what makes this hostel stand out — from its deep commitment to Indigenous education and land acknowledgment, to the strong sense of community they’ve built among travelers. We also compare the two HI Vancouver locations: Jericho Beach vs Downtown, so you can decide which one is the better fit for your trip.
Whether you're a solo traveler, backpacker, or just looking for an authentic and community-focused hostel in Vancouver, this episode breaks down the vibe, values, and practical differences between both locations.
In this episode, we discuss:
- The history of HI Jericho Beach and why it’s the oldest HI in Canada
- Their meaningful work around Indigenous education and reconciliation
- How they build real community among guests
- Jericho Beach vs Downtown: Which HI Vancouver location should you choose?
- Who each location is best suited for
If you're planning a trip to Vancouver and want more than just a bed, this episode will help you find the right hostel experience.
