Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
The first three days we stayed here (booked with Expedia) were great. The room was clean and comfortable. A little hard to light the fire as smoke does fill the room even with flume open but apart from that good. Staff and front desk very helpful. Room servicing average - good day one, virtually no service day two and three. Due to fires in Jasper we requested to stay an extra night. We were offered another room however the cost of the room was extravagant (over half of what we paid for three nights). The room was older, bathroom large but impractical. My husband could barely fit in the shower. Many of the lights in the room did not work. It’s a real shame as we had a good stay up until this point and would now no longer recommend when there are so many other options available. Restaurant served nice food at a reasonable price. Parking is difficult. Not enough for all the rooms.

Wonderful cabin feel and accomadations.
Our room was absolutely beautiful. The beds were very comfortable. The fireplace was beautiful and since it is a wood burning fireplace, we could still smell wood which did bother my allergies. There was a little porch out back which we enjoyed sitting and watching the small animals running. We saw two foxes. The bathroom was huge and very modern. Staff at the reception desk were so nice and friendly and willing to help however they could. I would highly recommend staying here.

This Lodge is very convenient to downtown without the chaos of Banff traffic. Very clean, well kept, comfortable room with a fireplace! Staff was wonderful! Restaurant was very good with a nice wine selection. We were very happy with our stay. The only negative is limited parking. Would like to see each unit have a dedicated parking space as some nights we had difficulty parking if we returned later. Otherwise wonderful! Would definatley stay here again!

Beautiful fixtures; large bedroom; comfortable bed; nice fireplace. Staff helpful when asked, but failed to let us know our room was as ready while we waited in the lobby and didn’t clarify how dining credit works. Worst was the lack of a place to put soap while showering - had to set it on the floor while shampooing and rinsing - gross to pick soap back up where others had their feet.
