The hotel

There's a definite Western feel to this amiable family lodge in the heart of Banff. A truly authentic Rocky Mountain getaway, with many adventures and activities to enjoy including horseback riding, hiking, skiing and golf. The complimentary breakfast is sure to set you up refuelled and refreshed for another day out exploring, and upon returning back to your homely lodge accommodation, relax in the sauna. Rooms are spacious and comfortable with handcrafted log furniture, large windows, bright fabrics and historic photographs, a serene retreat after a day in the mountains.

Amazing location! Amazing staff! Amazing accommodations! Big thank you to the hotel for creating a beautiful and welcoming place to stay in this quaint town. We loved our suite! It was immaculate and right in the front of the hotel where we sat outside after evenings out at all the nearby, walkable, shops and restaurants. Starbucks is literally around the corner! The paid-parking garage made it easy to come and go in this bustling village with not too many parking spots. The front desk folks were always smiling and ready to make suggestions or offer help. (They literally were always smiling!!) The elevator was appreciated, and made it easy to get luggage up and down. Breakfast is located off the parking garage (really?!?!) but rest-assured, it is delicious, with variety and pastries!! Yum!! Can you tell we loved this hotel? We did!! Thank you for making our 1st time in Banff so memorable and fun!! Read less

The continental breakfast was ok and the staff kept it stocked. The hotel is just off Banff Avenue so access to shops and restaurants was easy to get too. The local roam bus service is very good but if paying by cab you will need the exact fair to hand as Change is not given. Read less

This was a pleasant stay. Room was clean and nice size. A little dark. Lobby was small and hall was narrow. Hard to get down the hall with a luggage cart if housekeeping was in the area. Staff was responsive to needs. Location is great in downtown Banff. Easy to walk to shops and restaurants. Breakfast was included and a decent selection.… Read more
This was a pleasant stay. Room was clean and nice size. A little dark. Lobby was small and hall was narrow. Hard to get down the hall with a luggage cart if housekeeping was in the area. Staff was responsive to needs. Location is great in downtown Banff. Easy to walk to shops and restaurants. Breakfast was included and a decent selection. Staff friendly. Oddly it was in a room off the parking garage. Downside: No AC. Pricey. Parking is not included. The hotel has an underground garage but like most I’ve seen in ski areas, crowded and difficult to park. We opted for guaranteed parking just so we would have a spot somewhere in be garage. Worth the price to have a spot. Read less
