We traveled with another couple, and had a two-bedroom unit, shared bathroom, which was very convenient. Furnishings were nice, and the main bedroom was large. However, the shower was very noisy. The courtyard was nice, but noisy in the room when people used it in the early morning. Noisy driveway by the room, and noisy teenagers late at night. Quieter location off the main road, though.

“Bumper's, a great deal.”

Bumpers Inn

2/2 found this review helpful

Stayed at Bumpers on August 8 and 9. It was our first time at Bumpers, but won't be the last. Very clean, comfortable beds, very reasonable rates (in Banff, with some of the high prices, Bumper's is a real good deal), friendly and helpful front desk, easy to find, and close proximity to downtown. Also, a BIG plus for how quiet it was. The Inn was full both nights, but not once did we hear noisy neighbors! Bumper's was built to keep out outside noises, and it works! If you want a great place to stay, at a very good price, look no further than Bumpers!

The location is convenient and the price is about the lowest we could
find for Banff after June 1. The guy at the front desk was very personable and helpful. Our room was clean, and the windows look out on a pleasant, northwesty courtyard with tall trees. We were on the second floor, and because there was no fan and no cross ventilation, our room became very warm and stuffy in spite of the very cool weather outdoors (50 degrees F at night and not much higher in the daytime). I would hate to have to stay in a second floor room in warm weather. The blanket had several cigarette burns on it, but the sheets seemed clean. Extra pillows are in the drawers. The worst aspect was the noise from the courtyard. When people on the bottom floors go out their doors, they enter onto the courtyard, and when they talk, everyone in all the other rooms can hear them. One guy had a very loud conversation at 3 a.m. on a cell phone while sitting in the open door to his room, and we heard every laugh, exclamation, and comment. It woke us up and kept us from going back to sleep.
There was no fan in the room to cover up the noise. Big drawback.

1/1 found this review helpful

Stayed there on May 21, 07, pd $85 + GST. Hard to find a place to stay below $100 except hostels. Very clean, very quiet (no-noise-&-no-check-in after 11 pm policy). Nice forestry area right by the parking lot, nice patio. No internet service.

Very bare hotel, mattress too soft, sloppy coffee machine. First hotel if you enter through the Banff Ave. from HWY 1. Good pick if you wanna stay away from the crowd like us. Will stay here again if going to Banff - for the quietness, away from the crowd, and affordable rate. Lastly, staff was very helpful.
