Buffalo Mountain Lodge, Banff National Park

Commanding incredible vistas from its perch atop Tunnel Mountain, Buffalo Mountain Lodge makes for a delightful ‘home away from home’ in stunning surroundings.

A short drive up Tunnel Mountain Road from downtown Banff brings you to Buffalo Mountain Lodge, set peacefully amid beautiful tall pine trees. Just walking into the property gives you the sensation of being in an authentic, old-style mountain home. It’s an impression that continues in your room, with a cozy stone fireplace, wooden beamed ceilings, rustic furnishings – simple but very comfortable – and those wonderful mountain views. Many of the rooms have their own balcony or patio.

In the main lodge, The Prow is the hotel’s stylish restaurant where you can expect to enjoy mountain-themed tapas, homemade pasta, local brews and inventive cocktails. Meanwhile, the Buffalo Mountain Cafe is the perfect place to grab a coffee or fresh pastry before heading out for the day’s adventure. The outdoor stainless steel hot tub is best enjoyed after an invigorating hike, bike or ski on the nearby trails.
