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.

Excellent stay

Great service from the start. Beautiful room, well kept and clean. I called in the evening to see if there was a microwave available and the front desk delivered one to my room. The staff are always super friendly. I love staying here and will definitely stay again.

6/10 Good

Hotel is a beautiful spot. Bath tubs, shower heads etc are a little old and dirty at this point, covered in hard water and could use a deep scrub.

Great location and cozy room

It was an amazing stay at the buffalo mountain lodge. The fire place gave a cozy and relaxing atmosphere. It was excellent service overall. A family of deer welcomed us after we checked in. Staying at this lodge made our Banff trip more special. The bus stop is right across the road, which makes it easier to get around. Also we could walk to the town through the neighbourhoods nearby. My husband and I will definitely book this lodge again when we come back to Banff.
