Charltons Banff

8/10 Good

"I do not like when any hotel charges me for amenities like the pool or hot tub. And also for parking. I do not have an option. There is no other place to park and there is no way to opt out of the pool and hot tub.. Just include these amenities into the price total rather than when I’m booking at the front desk."

Tunnel Mountain Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay at Tunnel Mountain Resort! The place was clean and comfortable, and the peaceful surroundings made it perfect for a relaxing getaway. The location is convenient for exploring Banff, and we really enjoyed our time here. Would definitely recommend!"

"Clean room with kitchen amenities. Could easily make a sandwich or have toast if wanted to skip paying for breakfast/lunch. 10 minute walk into Banff centre so away from the busy part but with great restaurants within a 1 or 2 minute walk of the hotel. Great access to all areas Parking was easy and bus stop right outside the hotel"
