Our take
I would choose Buffalo Mountain Lodge for its calm, rustic setting and its position close to Banff. A wood fireplace in every room is the detail that stays with you, and the hot tub, sauna, gym and fireplace lounge give you plenty to do without leaving the property. Downtown is a short walk away. Guests rate it 8.9 across more than seventeen hundred reviews, a strong score for a four-star lodge. If you prefer a modern city hotel with an active lobby, this is probably not your style.
- ✓Take advantage of the wood fireplace in your room for a truly cozy evening experience.
- ✓Walk into downtown Banff to explore the shops and restaurants, it's a pleasant stroll.
- ✓After a day on the slopes or trails, make sure to relax in the hot tub and sauna.

Why guests love itBuffalo Mountain Lodge is a four-star lodge on the slopes of Tunnel Mountain, a short walk from downtown Banff. Every room has a wood fireplace and a private bathroom, which makes winter evenings with children simple and warm. The hot tub and sauna help after a day outside, there is a gym, and a lounge with its own fireplace gives the family somewhere to sit. I would recommend it to families who like a calm mountain base.
