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. If you're looking for more space why not upgrade to a 2-Floor Loft Suite — perfect for longer stays.

This hotel does not try to be something it is not and is a very good 3 star lodge. Rooms are spacious, comfortable and equipped with everything you'd expect. Location is very good and close to everything in town. But above all the desk staff were excellent and really helpful. The only reason I gave it 4 not 5 stars was because I found the breakfast limited . I don't drink milk so cereals were not on and I don't like sweet pastries etc in the morning. I would have liked a bigger selection of fruit-berries perhaps as well as appled and quarters of orange. That said I would not hesitate to recommend this hotel Read less

Very central hotel to all amenities,staff very friendly and booked the gondola for us. The room we got was at the back which was not good for a light sleeper like me as the bin lorries came very early in the morning, although my wife slept through it all.

The room and decor throughout had a rustic feel which we liked and the rooms well cleaned! Breakfast was continental not your usual fare but nonetheless served a purpose although there are loads of restaurants nearby if you want better. We would return again but I would definitely look a room change! Read less

Our experience here was very good. We did not like the first room where the bed was in a loft and the front desk was able to get us into a garden room. It worked out great for us and we highly recommend the interior garden room. Breakfast is not good and we skipped it. There are lots of restaurants in the area so we ate at one of them. Overall,… Read more

Spacious rooms, comfortable beds and plenty of pillows. Pine furniture and stairs add to the charm. Breakfast room provided a good variety of foods and beverages but crossing the underground parking to reach it was very peculiar. Well placed for the town centre.
