A few blocks down Banff Ave from the most crowded area, so quiet and peaceful. Very close to the IGA if you want to purchase grab & go items for a light lunch. I was able to find free street parking for my rental car.

Banff Inn is conveniently located in the heart of town, making it easy to explore shops and enjoy a wide selection of nearby restaurants. However, the rooms feel a bit dated, and finding street parking can be challenging. Indoor parking is available for an additional $20 per night.

We enjoyed our stay at Banff Inn; it’s clean, cozy and convenient to the restaurants and bus stops as well as the meeting places for our tour. The staff is nice and accommodating. I will definitely recommend this place!!!
In front of the hotel, it’s located at Banff Avenue which is where most everything is. Very walkable to these restaurants and tour stops.
Lake Moraine is breathtaking!! Our tour met at A nearby hotel, just a stone throw away from Banff Inn.
