Find 3-Star Hotels in Banff

The double room was tiny, with no space for luggage, but then again, you wouldn't want to just stay cooped up indoors when visiting Banff. There's free, semi-covered parking, which is great for keeping out of the rain. The complimentary breakfast wasn't extensive but definitely filling enough. If you're staying for several days, there's a good chance your key card might stop working mid-stay. The hotel encourages guests to opt out of housekeeping, citing environmental protection, but the old perk of getting a coffee shop voucher for doing so is no longer available.

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 room was very clean and wonderfully warm when I visited in winter, with the heating on 24/7. It's right in the heart of Banff town center, making shopping and dining incredibly convenient. There's a parking lot next door, which is also where some airport shuttle pick-up/drop-off points are located. I was dropped off right at the hotel parking lot by my airport shuttle and picked up from the same spot for my return flight, which was super convenient.

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.

Very friendly & obliging staff at check in & also when checking out. Room was very clean although small with too much furniture we felt. As overseas travellers with 2 large cases we had to move some of the furniture to be able to open them. There were 2 large easy chairs plus a desk chair. Also the tv which was very large was on top of a cupboard completely blocking the mirror on the wall. The hotel is in a fairly good position about 20 minutes to the centre of town.

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.

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.
