Brewster Mountain Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Loved our stay at Brewster Mountain Lodge. Very convenient, close to shops, restaurants and attractions. Very clean, spacious room. Only let down was no air conditioning. Fans were ok."

Hotel Canoe and Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Booked last minute. Very clean and very helpful staff. The hotel has been recently renovated so everything was clean and new. The quality coffee and tea provided as well as blankets for sitting on the balacony and robes to head to the hot pools were much appreciated. Hot pool are on the upper levels and are quite large. There is a seating area with gas firepit as well. We went early in the morning and had it to ourselves for over an hour. Very peaceful!"

Banff Caribou Lodge and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Spent a fantastic 5 days here and can’t wait to return. Room was clean and spacious with all basic amenities provided. Particularly loved the Rocky soap, shampoo etc which we were able to purchase at the store in town. Conveniently located Roam bus stop located a few meters away and for the two organised tours we took the pick up was right out front. Easy stroll into town but bus passes are also provided by reception for Roam transit which was great. We enjoyed using the hot tub/pool daily aswell as the small gym which is the only thing we felt could be improved on as there is just one bike, one treadmill and some weights. We ate at the Keg restaurant at the hotel twice aswell as having drinks at the bar. All the staff we encountered were friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend this property."
