3-Star Hotels in Banff

The hotel staff were incredibly kind and welcoming, making my stay even more enjoyable. The hot tubs were exactly as pictured—beautiful, spotless, and very relaxing. The housekeeping was exceptionally thorough. Every detail of the room was kept clean and well cared for. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Banff. Above all, the mountain-view balcony was an unforgettable experience. Waking up to such breathtaking scenery made my stay truly special.

Room was in excellent condition as was the bathroom.   Room was very large with a king bed, two large sitting chairs in front of a wood burning fireplace and a separate desk area.  Restaurant had interesting signs and was very good.  The Inn is a little far from Banff center to be able to walk there.

The hotel is a bit far from Banff Centre, but there's a bus stop right outside, and the hotel provides free bus tickets. We stayed in a room with a view and could see the snow-capped mountains from the balcony. The front desk staff were very friendly and helpful. However, I was disappointed with the housekeeping service; we stayed for two nights, and on the second day, our room wasn't cleaned, and toiletries and bar items weren't replenished. The air conditioning was also very noisy, and even though maintenance came to adjust it, there was no improvement.

The front desk staff were cheerful, professional, and incredibly kind. From the moment I walked into the hotel, I felt welcomed by the warm and friendly atmosphere. The kindness and hospitality of the staff were the best I experienced in Banff. My room was very clean, and I especially appreciated the hair dryer—it was the cleanest and easiest to use of any hotel I stayed at during my trip. Depending on your room, you can also enjoy beautiful mountain views. The hotel also has a great restaurant on the first floor serving delicious food, and its convenient location makes shopping easy. Overall, I felt this hotel was a wonderful place to stay and made my trip to Banff even more enjoyable.

I stayed on the 2nd floor, and the view was absolutely beautiful with excellent facilities. The only thing to note is that you have to check-in at a different hotel.

Hotel is a bit far from town but it provides free town shuttle. We booked the balcony room hoping to get a better view. We have rooms with big trees in front. When asked if we can change rooms, he won’t change since it’s not booked direct. The balcony room has little heat as the heater is smaller and the room is colder.

It was alright. The front desk staff were very friendly and helpful, which was a big plus. There was a good variety of tea bags and beverages, and the location was great. However, the hygiene could use some improvement.

The hotel feels a bit dated, but the room was spacious, neat, and tidy. The towels weren't sparkling white but were acceptable. My favorite part was the bathroom amenities—the shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and lotion were amazing! The only downside was the pool hours (9 AM - 9 PM); we got back past 10 PM and couldn't use it. It would be perfect if they could extend the pool hours.

We had a wonderful stay at Bow View Lodge. The location is excellent, with the river just behind the property, providing a beautiful and peaceful spot to relax and enjoy the scenery. We also appreciated the front desk team calling ahead to reconfirm our reservation dates, which was a thoughtful touch and gave us peace of mind before arrival. While the rooms are a bit dated, they were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. Overall, a great value for the location and a pleasant place to stay while enjoying the beautiful Banff!

The room was clean and tidy, 39 square meters, with a kitchen, dining area, and fireplace for heating – exceeding my expectations. There was indoor parking, a water sports center, sauna, and swimming pool. The environment was beautiful. The hotel provides Roam bus tickets to Banff town, allowing unlimited free rides on town buses, which is very convenient.
