Top Southern Alberta Hotel Reviews

Canmore Rocky Mountain Inn

10/10 Excellent

"At check in, very friendly and invited us to wine and cheese at 7pm. We received a call in our room about 10 to 7pm to remind us of the event and personally invited us down again! Very nice touch! There was a great turn out for the event and very pleasant hospitality! Rooms clean and updated, small for 4 adults. Sack breakfast for sale if needed."

Best Western Plus Port O'Call Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This property is excellent for a family with kids. The pool for the kids was amazing and my kids enjoyed it so much. Recommended as well as this area is very convenient and near in the airport too."

Banff Caribou Lodge and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Overall we enjoyed our stay. Staff were helpful."

The Glenmore Inn & Convention Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice hotel with friendly staff. Room was very clean. Would definitely stay there again"

Hidden Ridge Resort

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms were very clean, and the staff was helpful and very friendly! Enjoying the mountains from the hot tub was amazing; the fall colours were so pretty, and the mountain view was breathtaking! It was so convenient to hop on the bus a short distance away and be shuttled to the main streets of Banff without the hassle of driving my car. We were also lucky enough to see some Elk camp behind our place that we could watch from our balcony. I can't wait to come back again someday."

Fairmont Banff Springs

8/10 Good

"If I was just rating staff here, this place would be 6 stars out of 5!!! Unreal service! The only reason I’m letting it slip to a 4 star rating is mostly for the overall need for cosmetic maintenance around the buildings. Cracked sink, chipped baseboards, little things really. But for the price point, they should be looked at for sure. Amenities were 10/10, food was incredible, and the staff absolutely spoil you! Shout out to Vicente in the Rundle bar! We’ll be back for sure!!! ❤️"

Divya Sutra Plaza and Conference Centre Calgary Airport

8/10 Good

"Room was clean and staff was cooperative and helpful! Had a great stay!"

Moose Hotel And Suites

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel has the perfect location. Easy to walk to restaurants and attractions. They have hot tubs which are wonderful after a full day of sightseeing. The staff is very welcoming and friendly."

Banff Aspen Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic location. Great filling breakfast. Lovely outdoor tub and free parking!"
