Top Vermilion Lakes Hotel Reviews

Banff Caribou Lodge and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"All great"

Mount Royal Hotel

8/10 Good

"Excellent location!"

Otter Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location"

Banff Aspen Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"The room was small, very clean - we had the one queen bed room. The hot tub was a nice treat at the end of the day and breakfast was delicious. If you have a tour scheduled get to breakfast early it can be quite crowded but you don’t want to miss the delicious food. Even though it was in the busy part of Banff it was very quiet and bed comfortable and room dark for sleeping. We could walk to most restaurants, shops and grocery stores and our tour picked us up in front of the hotel. We did have a rental car and the parking garage was conveniently under the building which was a bonus. Coin laundry available if needed but we did not use it. Would not hesitate to book again if in the area."

Banff Park Lodge

Brewster Mountain Lodge
