An excellent hotel. Elmer really makes this place shine!!! Ever helpful and always cordial, he truly makes you feel like you’ve just come home. Banff Inn would not be what it is without him! Another note is location. Not far from the city center, but far enough to where it’s relatively quiet, it’s a nice balance.

Clean room and comfortable beds. Front desk staff were very accommodating when we asked to check in early. Although the room is spacious, there is only one small bathroom, so for 5 of us it was a bit of a squeeze, but perfect for one night.

Beautiful views. The room was nice, clean. However, there was no microwave in the room. Property was walking distance to shops, restaurants and easy access by transit! Restaurant on site but only open for dinner. We had to leave the restaurant for breakfast and lunch.
