Top Banff Hotel Reviews

Banff Park Lodge

Banff Park Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"Very large double rooms; comfy bed and well-supplied and very clean bathroom. We wanted to, but due to lack of time, couldn’t use the hot pool. The personnel were all very welcoming and professional. Both the check in and check out were extremely smooth. Special mention to the kind gentleman at the door who helped us with the bags and local transportation and the concierge desk. There’s construction going on at the property, but with least inconvenience to the guests. Thank you."
