Hidden Ridge Resort

8/10 Good

"The resort is in a beautiful setting with fantastic mountain views, and the complimentary bus passes into Banff were a great bonus. The room was comfortable enough, although it was quite tired and could do with some updating. We stayed towards the end of peak season, so the price was understandably high, and while we enjoyed the location and setting, I felt it was a little expensive for what we got."

Banff Aspen Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Loved our room. 2 tv's, large living area, 2 sinks, Room had everything you could ask for, lots of little details."

Continental Hotel

8/10 Good

"AFFORDABLE option if you just need a quiet place to rest, though its age shows. • The Rooms: The building is older, and the AC does not work well, so cooling can be weak. • The Pool: There is an indoor pool, but it is completely unattended with no lifeguard or staff on duty. OVERALL: A good, polished choice for budget travelers who just need a simple place to sleep, but don't expect modern updates."

Banff Caribou Lodge and Spa
