"This is our second time we've been back. Decent price for a decent hotel. Breakfast you pay $15 but you get a big portion and it was delicious. Amenities are close, there's a bar and a lounge close by. I'd come back again."

Banff Caribou Lodge and Spa

Banff Caribou Lodge and Spa

8/10 Good
"The lodge decor was charming as was the room in a Harry Potter closet fashion. The bed was comfortable and the bath and shower were great. The restaurant was excellent but expensive. The location was okay but it is a 17 minute walk into town so the lodge provides included bus passes. The biggest drawback was the lack of air conditioning. The hotel provided a portable fan and the window opens, but that wasn’t enough to be comfortable in August. The hallway had a/c but the staff said they would have to tear down the hotel to extend the a/c to the guest rooms. Not sure we would stay there again, especially in the summer."
