Banff Park Lodge

8/10 Good
"I liked how the hotel was walking distance to the heart of town. Nicely remodeled rooms and they were under construction for the lobby. Also had a really reasonably priced daily breakfast buffet. I highly recommend the Baked Alaska for dinner. One of the best I’ve had in years."
