Stayed here for 10 days and had a wonderful time ; the staff are very friendly and helpful. The hot pool is fantastic after a day on the ski slopes. The KEG restaurant provides great food at sensible prices. The hotel however needs to control late night noise at the weekends. More

We go to Banff for skiing about 6-8 weekends a year so have stayed in most hotels. The Caribou is my favorite because the rooms are immaculate, generously sized, beautifully decorated in earth tones with scenic pictures (not tacky pictures) and wrought iron beds and accents. The beds are super comfy with high quality sheets and duvets. This is the... More

We're glad you enjoyed your time at the Caribou Lodge and thank you for your comments. The artwork in our Parkade is painted by a local artist named Monica Ferrari and fits with the historic theme you'll find in our hotel and Keg Restaurant. We are currently adding 40 new historic images to our corridors inside the hotel - look... More

Really liked this place, it’s not in the centre of Banff so it’s a drive to get into town (or get the free bus) but it’s a very pleasant place to stay. Rooms are clean, well appointed and spacious and the hotel as a really pleasant ambience to it that seemed to be missing from other properties in the area.... More

I stayed with my family for 3 nights between Christmas and new years. The Hotel has been recently renovated, the bathrooms looked really nice and clean, they still need to change the carpets on the hallways that looked really old. The hotel is conveniently located within a walking distance form the town center, we walked to the stores, there is... More

Thank you for the review and feedback. I am happy to report that our hallway carpets are now replaced on the first and second with a beautiful wool carpet and our third and fourth floors will be complete by the first week of February. We hope you make it back to stay with us again soon. More

We stayed one night between Christmas 2011 & New Year and wished it could have been longer. The staff were very friendly & helpful & the room very comfortable. It easily accommodated our party of 4. The location, while on the edge of town, was only a 10 minute walk into the town centre. We would return and recommend this... More

My boyfriend and I stayed here for 2 nights in January 2012. We booked through a third party and the room was excellent for how little we paid...it is Banff after all. The lobby is beautiful with a wood burning fireplace that permeates the entire hotel. Having the Keg Steakhouse attached to the hotel is an added bonus, and they... More

My husband who is in a wheelchair and I stayed in room 304. We had read through hotel discriptions prior to booking at a hotel as we needed a room that was wheelchair accessible. The description at this hotel sounded perfected. The room was too small for my husband to move about on his own, that is after we struggled... More

Building a wheelchair accessible room should be an easy task; regulations are available and interest groups are always willing to help. If we have misjudged the accessibility of our new rooms, it will be from feedback such as yours that we can improve our rooms for the better. I have already ordered door stoppers to ensure future guests will not... More

The room is superb , more than enough room for two people and with two bathrooms, the room has every thing you need for a great stay. If... More
