Top hotels in Downtown District
Moose Hotel And Suites
Hot tub and sauna were amazing. Good location in town close to everything except the train lines which ran a lot. We are light sleepers so this was a shock to our system. Bed was too firm but this is a personal preference. Great shower area and overall great customer service.

Banff Park Lodge
Nice clean, renovated room. Location is main reason to stay here. Can’t think of a more central spot that’s close to the river and everything that you need.

Peaks Hotel & Suites
Close to town but quiet. The room was well set up! Love the benches with drawers underneath. That’s soooo smart. I loved that they had a sound machine in the room. The unit could have had a microwave. That is my only complaint.
