We spent 5 nights here at the start of our 10 day trip. The staff was amazing. I received a notification from Expedia mid flight saying the card of file for the hotel was declined to please call the hotel. I called as soon as we landed in a panic(we still had a 5 hour drive) and the staff member was super nice and said he would make a note but no need to worry it can be handled when we arrive. A few things to note about the property itself. Parking is not included there is a underground lot you can pay per day to use or free street parking behind the hotel. Also the balcony have very little privacy just a heads up you can see directly down the row of 3 or 4 connecting rooms when sitting out so we didn't utilize ours as much as I had hoped when booking the room. Breakfast was great everyday and included. Good variety and the area was very clean. Cleaning services everyday did a great job. The amenities are perfect especially if you are spending your days hiking. Hot tub, sauna and cold plunge! Plus fire pits and places to sit. Overall we had a fantastic stay and would recommend just be prepared to pay for Parking and have limited to no privacy on your balcony.

This was our first trip to Banff and our first stay at Canalta Lodge. We only had one small issue while we were there and the staff resolved it quickly. We would stay there again. It is a little less than a mile to the other end of downtown so sometimes we walked and when tired we jumped on the bus which was very convenient. Breakfast was good and had a lot of options.

Great property. Outdoor features were really nice and the staff were AWESOME. Walkable to downtown and reasonably priced. Rooms are nothing special, pretty dark (no lights) and can’t open windows for light because there’s no privacy curtains. But otherwise would stay again.

A lot of amenities! Including free breakfast, hot tubs, cold plunge, and sauna. Gym is decent size also. Smores every afternoon. Even though it's the farthest away from downtown, we had a great stay here! Shout out to John at breakfast who worked so hard and the other lady. Sorry don't know her name.
