Best Lodging Near Banff National Park - Canada

We stayed here last night and the whole experience was amazing. We were supposed to stay 2 nights but Air Canada changed our flights home… we appreciate the understanding of inconvenience this caused you. The breakfast was delicious. The extra details, snacks, wine availability shows what great hosts you are. Our room and cute little balcony overlooking the mountains was lovely too! Highly recommend staying here …. And tonight there’s an opening for 1 night because we had to go home early !!

Leanne B, Tripadvisor Review, July 2022

“Albert and Esther were unreal hosts. They are friendly, charming, and have a heart to care about others. The lodging was incredible, the rooms were quaint, the breakfast was second to none, the recommendations were the best, the access to bikes and hiking poles and a piano weee phenomenal, the hospitality was unreal, and they made us feel like family. Can’t give this place enough stars… I would give them double whatever the highest amount if I could…. I want to be like a Albert and Esther when I grow up!!”
