Conveniently located about 25 minutes' walk from the Bow Falls Viewpoint, the 3-star smoke-free Banff Aspen Lodge hotel features 2 outdoor hot tubs. Boasting the location just a few steps from Banff Avenue, the comfortable hotel offers a view over mountain and a steam room, an outdoor hot tub, a Jacuzzi, and a sauna.

Location

The hotel is nestled right in the centre of Banff, 150 metres from the St. Paul's Presbyterian Church. The perfect Aspen Lodge is located among a café and hot springs, while the Banff Visitor Centre is only 11 minutes' walk away.

The property also lies near hot springs and a mountain, and the Cascade of Time Garden is merely 1.1 km away. No matter the religion, travellers prefer to visit the Catholic church "Saint Mary's Parish Banff", a popular place of worship located just moments from this Banff hotel.

You can catch the bus at Free Banff Gondola Shuttle bus stop, within 5 minutes' walk of the Aspen Lodge.

Rooms

The rooms comprise a balcony and a terrace complete with an air conditioner, as well as a flat-screen TV with satellite channels and wireless internet. Also, there is an individual safe, coffee and tea makers provided. Bathroom amenities include a walk-in shower and a separate toilet, along with comforts such as hair dryers and bathrobes.

Eat & Drink

The restaurant Ticino Swiss-Italian Restaurant is right near Banff Aspen Lodge hotel.

Leisure & Business

You will find a hot tub in the pool area. With a golf course, guests can stay fit at this accommodation.

“This lodge strikes a rare balance in Banff: it's both welcoming to dogs and stylishly put together. I especially appreciate the courtyard oasis; an outdoor fireplace really extends the season. Its location provides a bit of breathing room from the downtown crowds, and the locally-sourced café is a genuine treat.”

Acceptable Stay with Disappointing Room Issues

I stayed in a room where the noise from the piping was constant. This was annoying. I noticed the carpet needed a deep clean, because my socks got dirty quickly.
