Bow View Lodge  

Perched alongside the scenic Bow River in Banff, Alberta, this lodge is just two-and-a-half blocks from downtown. Walk to the Banff National Park Information Centre and Lake Louise tourism desk, or drive about 7 minutes to the Upper Hot Springs.

The property offers 58 guestrooms with simple, comfortable amenities: complimentary Wi‑Fi, cable TV, coffee/tea makers, phones, and private bathrooms with toiletries and hair dryers. Rooms have climate control and some practical extras like portable fans and an in-room dining table; a safety box is available for an additional charge. Family-friendly services are available, including babysitting for a surcharge.

Relax on a riverside terrace or sweat it out in the on-site fitness center, sauna and steam room. An indoor pool, jacuzzi and additional fitness facilities are available at a nearby partner property about 200 m away. Onsite you’ll also find a tour desk, picnic area and even a bowling option for extra fun — plus elevator access and parking for guests.

Stay connected with complimentary Wi‑Fi and take advantage of express check-out, dry cleaning and laundry services. A 24-hour front desk and concierge support travel logistics, and free self-parking is available; a roundtrip airport shuttle runs for a surcharge.

Choose between two on-site restaurants and unwind at the bar/lounge after a day on the trails. Buffet breakfasts are offered for a fee on weekdays (7:00–11:00) and weekends (7:00–12:00).
