Staff Accommodation

Wondering what staff accommodation is really like?

A lot of people living and working in Banff live in staff accommodation. Staff accom is generally much cheaper than having your own apartment or sharing a house. Typical rent is about $210/month, which includes everything but food.

Most staff accommodation facilities in Banff are dorm-style buildings. You will probably share one room with 2 or 3 people. You will most likely share bathrooms which are accessible to everyone on your floor, and a common living room with a TV. There are usually no cooking facilities and instead a common staff cafeteria where you can get well-priced food. There is not a lot of privacy but it is great for meeting people and saving money.

Some local employers offer special deals on staff accommodation as incentives to work for them.
