Rooms are classically furnished, offering oodles of character and charm, and those with mountain views are well worth the upgrade. But, stays here are all about the great outdoors and with Banff National Park on your doorstep, you’ll have direct access to some of Canada’s most impressive mountain scenery. Spend sun-soaked summer days hiking, cycling or taking in the nearby town of Banff, while in winter there’s everything from dogsledding to alpine skiing to keep you occupied.
Then, back at base, there are the award-winning delights of the Willow Stream Spa and a truly stunning 18-hole golf course, which winds its way across the valley floor. You’ll also find a superb selection of dining options, from the 1888 Chop House with its menu of sustainable seafood and prime Alberta beef, to the Vermillion Room, where French culinary traditions meet Canadian charm. Elewhere, the Walhaus Restaurant serves up divine schnitzel and indulgent fondue – a particular highlight during winter. Oh, and there’s the excellent Grapes Charcuterie, Bar & Cellar, where guests are invited to pair a selection of cured meats and cheeses with a curated wine list showcasing the best of the old world and new.
