Banff Rocky Mountain Resort

Banff Rocky Mountain Resort

8/10 Good
"We had a very nice stay. The room was comfortable with plenty of space. We made use of the kitchenette. We didn’t use the BBQ grill, tennis, pickleball courts or playground but nice amenities. Not far from the main part of town, and very convenient for exploring the park. There’s a shuttle to downtown but we didn’t try it."
