Fodor's Expert Review Banff Centre
107 Tunnel Mountain Dr., Banff, Alberta, T1L 1H5, Canada
Two properties—the Lloyd Hall Hotel and the Hotel at the Professional Development Centre—with standard rooms and a variety of suites comprise the lodgings at the Banff Centre, which is perched on the side of Tunnel Mountain and has superb dining, arts, and recreational facilities. Guests have full access to a large library, the Walter Phillips Gallery, and the Sally Borden Fitness and Recreation Centre, which has a 25-meter (82-foot) swimming pool, a hot tub, a wading pool, an indoor running track, a climbing gym, a huge fitness center, and a full-size gymnasium where you can play basketball, volleyball, and badminton. Parking and Wi-Fi are free, and excellent on-site restaurants provide room service. Standard hotel rooms, kitchenette suites, and executive suites with fireplaces and jetted tubs are among the room types. Look for deals on the lodgings' website that include show tickets, meals, and accommodations.
