We recently stayed at Banff Caribou Lodge and Spa and were disappointed compared to our previous stay years ago. The rooms felt very outdated, with worn furniture, and the shower head barely worked — more like a faucet pouring over your head. The restaurant/bar was also closed and under renovation, which was not disclosed at the time of booking and was frustrating to find out upon arrival. Unfortunately, I wouldn’t recommend this hotel anymore, especially since there are several other hotels on the same road that are more updated and priced similarly.

Was not made aware the bar was closed for renovations. Which meant the keg restaurant didn't serve any draft beer or cocktails. The food in keg was also not great. Order a brie and they substituted the toppings because they ran out. Was not good return this. For a family with older people and not been able to relax and have drink I. The lobby was not good. If I had been told this I would have book elsewhere. Also cleaners didn't clean out room service dorty dishes and the remaind on the ground outside the door for the 2 days we were there.

The staff were friendly and the accommodations were so charming. Our whole family of five loved our time here and will be back. We had one small issue and we were so impressed with how the staff handled/corrected the situation. Great place to stay if you want to feel like a valued guest. Great place to stay if you want a charming mountain stay. Wonderful job Banff Caribou Lodge! Thanks for an incredible time.
