Excellent rustic experience. We received a complimentary upgrade to a bungalow and it was such a pleasant surprise. This property is nearly 90 years old and super well maintained and comfortable. We had a wood burning fireplace in the living room which was separate from the bedroom. Overall, it was charming and we would definitely go back. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The location next to the Johnston Canyon made it easy to hike the canyon and explore other places. The only tradeoff for staying here is lack of access to grocery stores or restaurants. The shop onsite is pricey and the restaurant closes early.

Vish's review
I picked Johnston Canyon because it is midway between Banff and Lake Louise, and less expensive than either of those two options. This was a hiking trip, and most all my hiking trips were in the Lake Louise OR Banff areas. Johnston Canyon itself offers great hiking and other outdoor opportunities. Comfort-wise, the place is great. The cabin/bungalow was spacious, the room was comfortable, the staff super-friendly and helpful. Absolutely the only down side of staying in a place like Johston Canyon is (potentially) related to meals. The lodge does have a restaurant (which I liked) that has breakfast, lunch and dinner, but some may find the options limited. And if you do not find enough meal options, the nearest other eating establishment is not convenient. For my part, I had all my dinners at this restaurant.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a kind review Kelly-Ann.We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed our lovely location at the Johnston Canyon trailhead.We understand that our prices may not be the most budget friendly but unfortunately, costs are strongly influenced by our location within Banff National Park, perhaps the premier Summer tourism location in Canada.You will find that our prices are lower than our competitors of similar style lodgings. The exclusivity of our location is also a factor in our pricing. Most of our cabins have been standing since the 1930's and is also part of the appeal of booking a stay with us.We hope this information helps explain pricing concerns and hope to welcome you back in the near future.Best,

The cabins were awesome but very dated with door locks not always working limited parking sharing one space for two cabins. Only one place to eat but exceptional food had the lunchtime menu as new staff but was good selection. Staff exceptional. Can’t justify the price at £880 for two nights so overpriced wouldn’t stay here again even though it is a wonderful area can just as easily stay in Banff and drive up
Reactie van Front desk team op 4 sep 2023
Hi Carole, thank you for taking the time to review your recent stay with us. We are glad you liked our location and our exceptional staff! As for the cabins, they are all historic structures dating back to the mid 1920's and each one comes with their own parking spot. Pricing is greatly influenced by our exclusive location within Banff National Park but away from the hustle and bustle of downtown Banff. The cabin style that you booked (containing a full kitchen, living room with fireplace, bathtub). The Royal/Large Bungalow is our most expensive cabin offered. If you are looking for similar styles of accommodation with the same amenities, you will find that our prices are very competitive. Thank you again,
