Bow River Inn

Bow River Inn

10/10 Excellent
"Very nice hotel, not too far from Banff, and great price for some place to crash for a night or two. Staff were very nice and helpful. A great experience overall. Mattress was exceptional for a motel. Breakfast would have been nice, but I knew they didn't have it when I booked it."

8/10 Good
"The host was friendly and the space had everything we needed for the weekend. It was close to grocery stores, restaurants, and in a nice area. Lots of parking available too. The only downside was that the condo was really new and units inside were still being worked on and although the place we stayed was done, it was fairly dusty inside and in the building with all the construction. I’m sure when all the work is finished in the area, that would no longer be a concern!"
