Banff Park Lodge

Banff Park Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"We stayed in Room 325 and facing to Cascade Mountain directly in front of us. It was awesome to see how the Cascade Mountain look as the weather changes frequently. The room was facing the Lynx street but they have sound proof windows so you can't hear any noise. The room was spacious and lots of countertop space. The separate bar area with a small sink, fridge, kettle, coffee maker, microwave was all in one area and out of the sight from the bedroom. The hotel locates between two major grocery stores and the main street, Banff Ave. is just one block away. We enjoyed our stay here very much. Thank you!"
