Quiet on Tunnel Mountain

Booked a Premier category and were upgraded from queen beds to king - thank you management. Celebrating an anniversary, our stay was short but special. Thank you for the macarons and note. Excellent service at the lodge, room was comfortable, clean and loved the L'Occitane amenities. Breakfast was delicious - french toast amazing!!
Don W, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Main house was beautiful and the staff were so helpful great—best part of the stay. The rooms are a bit old/not luxurious but bathroom was clean and sizeable. Loved having the kitchenette. And they also allowed us to request a mini fridge which was awesome! Less than 10 min drive or bus ride to downtown.

Weekend bday getaway

It was my bday weekend with my partner. I really enjoyed the whole place. Our room has rustic romantic ambience, the hot pool is perfect after a day exploring downtown Banff. The best of all is the wood burning fire place - while feeling the breeze of coldness! It was a perfect romantic celebration of my bday.
