Banff Rocky Mountain Resort
The chalet rooms are bit stuffy and smells of firewood inside from the usage of wood burning fireplace. The ambience is nothing spectacular as its away from the main Banff strip. But its cosy, and decent rooms with working kitchens. Can get noisy if residing on the main floor due to wood deck floors ...
