    spacious room
    noise levels

    The overall experience was quite pleasant, but we were

    disappointed by the noise levels from nearby guests. The upgraded room was spacious and comfortable, and the staff was attentive, which we appreciated. However, the thin walls made it difficult to get a good night's sleep.

    private quarters
    balcony view
    unused fireplace

    decent but needs improvement

    The private quarters offered a good level of privacy which is crucial for families. The balcony allowed us to enjoy some fresh air and the scenery, making our stay more pleasant.

    The fireplace, while a nice feature, was not utilized during our stay.

    slow wifi
    crowded hot tub

    I spent three nights in a cozy Queen Room with Two Queen Beds at Buffalo Mountain Lodge. The fireplace made the cold evenings warm and inviting. The room had a pleasant vibe, with comfy beds and a quaint patio to enjoy. The location offered beautiful mountain views, just a short bus ride from downtown. I appreciated having free internet access. However, the WiFi could definitely improve, as it was slow at times. The hot tub was crowded in the evenings, making it less relaxing. Overall, the stay was enjoyable despite a few hiccups.

    Amazing Stay with Cozy Amenities

    We had a fantastic time here! The Premier King Room was spacious and inviting, complete with a warm fireplace that made our evenings cozy. Being away from the hustle of downtown was a plus, and the beautiful views of the mountains added to our experience. The staff were incredibly helpful, providing great local tips and ensuring we had everything we needed. However, the Wi-Fi could use some improvement for better connectivity during our stay.

    crowded areas

    I adored the rustic charm with cozy fireplaces and stunning mountain views, creating a peaceful atmosphere to relax and unwind. The accessibility for seniors was evident, making it easy to navigate the lodge and surrounding areas comfortably.

    Improved dining service times would enhance the experience.

    cozy fireplace
    unique dishes

    would like to stay there on the next trip

    The queen room had two comfy queen beds, a cozy fireplace, and a nice balcony. The hot tub and gym were great, and the restaurant offered unique dishes like caribou. It felt peaceful, being away from the busy parts of Banff but still close enough to enjoy the town. Staff were helpful, making the visit better.

    wood burning fireplace
    outdoor jacuzzi

    Cozy, Cozy, Cozy

    My Queen Room was a cozy haven with a good wood burning fireplace that instantly warmed up our chilly nights. The outdoor jacuzzi was an absolute delight after a day of adventures, just the right way to relax under the stars. Plus, the beautiful surrounding pine trees created a magical winter wonderland vibe that’s hard to beat!

    would recommend ❤️😊

    charming furnishings
    inconsistent wi-fi

    Coziness and Challenge

    The lodge had a charming vibe with inviting furnishings and a clean cabin. The hot tub was a delightful end to our active days exploring the great outdoors.

    While the cabin was cozy, it felt slightly cramped for four people. Additionally, the Wi-Fi connection was inconsistent at times, making it difficult to stay connected.
