2 hot tubs and helpful staff!

The best part about the Canalta Lodge is the 2 hot tubs, barrel dry sauna and cold plunge! The decor of the hotel is very cute. Front desk staff are very helpful, especially Mannon and Dan! They were so nice to accommodate a late check out and gave us good recommendations for food. The breakfast wasn't great, oatmeal was watery and eggs had no taste, but the sausage links were good and they had a fun pancake making machine.

Enjoyed our stay and their staff!

Stayed 5 nights. Great location (close but not too close to the downtown crowds. Roam bus stop very close). Clean rooms and throughout hotel. All of the staff we encountered were very helpful and friendly. Loved the hot tub, sauna, daily smores. Good restaurants across the street. As mentioned by others, the daily breakfast was a little below most chain hotel breakfasts, but adequate and convenient. Wish the underground parking was free or less $. Otherwise, we loved our stay!

The rooms are a great size with “cabin themed” decor. The outdoor area has a sauna, hot tub and cold plunge pool. There is lots of seating including swings and large tables for groups, as well as 2 outdoor fire pits. can walk into Banff or take the bus. The staff are friendly and helpful. The free s’mores are a fun evening activity! The breakfast is fantastic. I would definitely recommend this property!

We loved this lodge in uptown Banff. It was easy walking distance to downtown but away from the busy areas. Loved the lodge themed spacious room with balcony. Underground secure parking is great.
