Top Banff Hotel Reviews

Rundlestone Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"직원이 매우 친절하고 현대식 건물이 아닌것처럼 보이는것과 달리 시설이 매우 깨끗하고 잘 관리되어 있습니다. 숙소는 밴프의 외곽에 위치해 있지만 다운타운까지는 걸어서 10-15분이면 도착 가능하며 가벼운 러닝으로는 30분 5키로미터 정도를 달린다면 동네 전체를 돌아보는것도 가능합니다."

Banff Park Lodge

8/10 Good

"I liked how the hotel was walking distance to the heart of town. Nicely remodeled rooms and they were under construction for the lobby. Also had a really reasonably priced daily breakfast buffet. I highly recommend the Baked Alaska for dinner. One of the best I’ve had in years."

8/10 Good

"Lovely big clean room with really comfortable beds. Great location within Banff and easy parking. Staff were all great. Only slight complaints was the water pressure in the shower was quite poor and the buffet table in the breakfast room is very small, so was quite chaotic first thing in the morning with lots of people trying to reach over each other."
