Otter Hotel
We really enjoyed our stay! The hotel was absolutely stunning and Good Folk was our favorite place to eat in Banff. The staff was friendly and helpful and we loved waking up to the view of the mountain each morning. The complementary bus pass was really convenient and much appreciated as well.

Rundlestone Lodge
It was our second stay here and we absolutely loved it. Nice and quiet in the room and the pool and hot tub were both well maintained. Our 4 year old had a blast in the pool as it wasn’t too deep and was pretty warm. Will definitely stay here again!

Banff Inn
Room was clean, great location walking distance to everything. Fan in the room and fireplace were noisy and the mattress was a little stiff for our taste! The hotel itself was great and so was the little restaurant downstairs. Would stay again.
