Overall really nice experience. Nice location. Friendly staff. Room service was good. Located right in Banff with lots of dining options at a walking distance. Parking was a bit inconvenient as we had to walk across the street to the parking lot of another hotel that shares the parking space, and there was no direct elevator access from the garage to Bow View Lodge (had to walk suitcases across to our hotel) as well pool amenities are shared and located in the hotel adjacent to Bow View Lodge. But it was a good experience overall, the hotel was clean, rooms are nice and cosy and the view from the balcony was nice.
