Great place to setup basecamp for the week. You are not in the middle of downtown, and easy to get to hiking trails. Hotel has an indoor pool with a hot tub as well as an outdoor hot tub. Lots of money has been spent to upgrade the tennis courts (with pickleball), new basketball courts. Lots of grills to cook your dinners.... Each unit has a full kitchen. Onsite restaurant is good and you can get downtown on the free shuttle.
The resort is very picturesque with many walking trails. The outdoor jacuzzi is great for enjoying the mountain air and views. The units are wonderful as they are well-equipped and having a fireplace is great in the evening. There is lots of parking. The resort is close to the Banff townsite, but you feel closer to nature than if you were staying at a hotel downtown. The highway is nearby for driving to other areas such as Lake Louise or Lake Minnewanka.
Wonderful property in the heart of the Rocky Mountains. Close enough to Banff to walk, bike or use the shuttle that goes from the resort to downtown. Walking and biking trails outside your door - bike rentals available. Indoor pool and outdoor hottub. Enjoy the restaurant or use the BBQ and kitchen in the unit. Cozy fireplace in the unit.
Banff Rocky Resort is nestled amongst the mountains and is just a short bike ride into downtown core. They offer many amenities to enhance your comfortable stay. Top notch service!
Exchanged timeshare to stay in Banff again (March 5-12)...Kinda like winter spring...we enjoyed skiing in Sunshine and the soak in hot tub after our day's trip. Best accommodation and good food around downtown area.
I just got back from our one week stay from this resort. JULY 13-20 wonderful place to stay...no
complains...we will definitely come back on spring time. Banff is a beautiful place to explore..the Rockies are
wonderful... we drove all the way to jasper and saw a lot of real wildlife animals like black bears, mountain goat,
elks, and lots of gophers everywhere. Very relaxing and refreshing place to stay.
The place is in the heart of Banff and Lake Louise is only an hour away drive...if you want to go further drive all
the way to jasper (about 4 hours drive) and even visit Calgary which is about an hour and a half drive.
Firstly, let me admit to being an Owner of a TS Unit at this Resort so my
comments are regarding the ENTIRE Resort.
Banff is surely a "Commercial Resort".... but as affordable as any I have
visited in North America. The "Business Area" of the Townsite
is 'compact' to about 50 blocks so most visitors could hike/walk thru most
of it within a week. There are 'several' Art Galleries featuring all sorts
of Bronze Castings, Stoneware, Woodworks, Paintings from both 'local'and
World Renown artists.... all for sale. Most shops are 'Open for Business'
from 9:00 am until 11PM.
No shortage of eating and drinking establishments.... nighttime activities
last 'forever'... or longer!
At least two FULL grocery stores (Safeways, IGA,...another.??) and prices
are similar to Calgary. Finally, all the Ski-lifts function during summer
months and you can DINE at at one of those majestic mountain tops. Or
you can Hike the myriad of Park Trails or climb one of the rugged
mountain faces. Take along your camers. Again, we are PROUD to be
owners at BRMR... and have adverts with Redweek.
My week 26 normally includes both Canada
Day on the 1st and July 4th, so we have
gotten a great taste of both Canadian and US
patriotic celebrations...and the fireworks along
the water has been spectacular!
We recently spent a week at the Rocky Mountain.
We were in a 2 bedroom unit. The units are
small, older but very clean and more than
adequate. All units are to be remodelled in the
next 3 years. The size of the unit is a result
of restrictions in Canada's National parks. The
unit is well located and you can easily make day
trips to many major attractions. We have passed
threw Bnaff many times but have never taken the
time to really visit the many Senic things in
the
Park. It is well worth it. ERL
We just returned from a week in Banff..The
resort is quaint but needs upgrades..they are
working on it..But, honestly, we were not moving
in, just hanging our hats for a week. My
suggestion would be ask for a room off of the
street..the street is noisy...The resort is in a
GREAT location and offers everything you need
for a week..the scenery is breathtaking and well
worth the trip..I highly recommend it! We would
return to the Banff Rocky Mountain Resort for
sure..We saw a huge elk in the yard eating the
grass and there was no extra charge for that
neat experience...
This resort has everything you could ask for;
Fireplaces in each room, Tennis courts, Squash
Courts, Big Fitness Facility, Swimming pool and
outdoor Hot tub,
A great place to spend a week in Canada's
premier national park.
Property is dated and requires upgrades. Our
stay was in april 2005 and with the availability
of other resorts in the area we would select a
different resort next time.
We just got back from the Banff Rocky Mountain
Resort, and we enjoyed it quite a bit. The
location is perfect - close to town, but not in
a noisy location.
We don't have kids, but they had kids activities
daily. Pool was nice, there were 2 guided hikes
each day. Bar was fun - has a pool table. We
used the gym every day.
We have stayed at Banff, AB and also at
Ketchem ID, Palm Springs CA, Lake Conroe TX
and a Marriott in Park City UT.
The Banff resort is one of our favorite
resorts. The views are spectacular. Plenty of
activities from skiing, hiking, sight seeing etc.
They have free squash in their state of the art
fitness center. One of the great events, is the
resort offers free tours of various trails in and
around Banff please a free shuttle every hour
to downtown. Well worth the visit.
