Top Banff Centre District Hotel Reviews

Everwild Canmore Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Clean"

Banff Caribou Lodge and Spa

8/10 Good

"This is a beautiful hotel! However, the room locks need to be updated. I had to visit the front desk seven times for a new key. Also, visitors should know there is no air-conditioning. We were inconvenienced by the smoky air from regional wildfires entering our room at night with the window screens. The staff and hot pool are excellent, and we will consider returning."

Banff Park Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"We loved staying here! They upgraded our room and provided a complimentary bottle of wine for our anniversary. They also provided us parking before check in. Staff was excellent, room was very clean, and great amenities available. The rooms are newly renovated and currently working on their public areas. The construction didn't affect our stay at all. Would highly recommend staying here!"

Pocaterra Inn and Waterslide

8/10 Good

"Staff was great. Room was clean and pleasant. Was not happy that there was not enough parking to accomodate the guests and we had to park on the street. Waited for some food items, eg. eggs and the yogurt and fruit was basically gone and did not get replaced in the 29 minutes we were there. Also would have appreciated to go cups by the coffee maker."
