Banff Caribou Lodge & Spa


Banff Caribou Lodge
The Banff Caribou Lodge seems to have successfuly captured the essence of the mountain lodge in its design, from the small windows poking out from its turquoise pitched roof to the large hand-hewn log accents that feature prominently throughout. The bright lobby with its imposing fieldstone fireplace is stylish and contemporary and yet retains a certain rustic charm.

This friendly hotel features 189 guest rooms, categorized as Standard or Superior, with the former having an inward-looking courtyard view and the latter rooms having an exterior view, some with balconies. In addition, there are six deluxe loft suites that sleep up to four people, featuring a sitting area with wood-burning fire and a pull-out sofa, and a separate sleeping area with king-size bed. All rooms are comfortably appointed, with maple wood furnishings and extremely comfortable Mountain Feather Beds.

The Banff Caribou Lodge is situated on Banff Avenue, about 10-minutes' walking distance from the centre of downtown Banff. For guest convenience, the hotel provides passes that offer free use of local public transport around town, and a free shuttle bus in the evenings.

The health and fitness facilities at the Banff Caribou Lodge include an exercise room, steam room and 35-person jetted hot pool. Those with a desire to be pampered should try the Red Earth Spa, the full service on-site spa that has six treatment rooms offering manicures, facials, pedicures, massage therapy and Vichy hydrotherapy.

The Banff Caribou Lodge also houses the second Banff location of The Keg Bar & Steakhouse, a popular casual steakhouse with separate lounge area, which is also open for buffet breakfast.

  • Cable TV
  • Guest passes for free local transportation
  • Coin laundry
  • Exercise room
  • Jetted hot pool
  • In-room high speed internet access (daily charge)

For skiers and snowboarders, the shuttle buses to the Big 3 ski areas (Mount Norquay, Sunshine Village and Lake Louise) stop right outside the hotel.
