The Fairmont
The Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge is in a class by itself. With more than 400 rooms, suites and cabins that together feel like a small alpine village nestled against dramatic Rocky Mountain peaks, the Fairmont is one of the most popular hotels in all of Canada. The hotel has several restaurants on premise, as well as a spa and health club and offers packages that include lift tickets to many of the area's ski destinations during the winter season.

HI-Hostel
A bit of a step down from the Fairmont, but luxurious in its own way, the HI hostel in Jasper is located on the side of Whistler's Mountain and is surrounded by the natural beauty of Jasper Natural Park. The hostel has both private and shared dorm accommodations and is one of the best deals in town for budget travelers. The hostel itself has a common kitchen, an outdoor campfire pit and a library that features many books on the surrounding area. A trailhead that winds up the peak of Whistler's Mountain is also just outside of the hostel's front door.
