Away from the ordinary Banff hotels, Buffalo Mountain Lodge lies on the gentle slopes of Tunnel Mountain, which native people called "sleeping buffalo". The Rocky Mountains have long been an area of great significance to our native peoples. The valleys were places of ceremony and celebration; the lakes and mineral springs offered rejuvenation for mind, body and spirit.

Banff is renowned the world over for its spectacular scenery, soothing hot springs and pure mountain air. It was here, in 1885, that the Canadian Government created Canada's first National Park.

The Main Lodge complements its natural setting with square timber, post and beam construction, and high open ceilings. Decor pays tribute to old-world craftsmanship, from custom made cherry, pine and bent-willow furnishings to copper and glass light fixtures. Simple, elegant design is a hallmark of the resort, and symbolizes the lifestyle at the Lodge.

Features

  • Our main lodge features a charming lounge with a huge fieldstone fireplace
  • Our outdoor hot tub is the ideal place to relax after a day on the slopes or hiking
  • Our fitness room and dry sauna are available for our guests to enjoy during their stay
  • Buffalo Mountain Lodge offers several dining options - enjoy the authentic Rocky Mountain Cuisine at Sleeping Buffalo Restaurant. To indulge in house made charcuterie, flat bread pizzas and specialty pastas, visit Cilantro. Call the front desk for hours of operation

Location

In a quieter area of Banff, the lodge is located on Tunnel Mountain Drive just a 3 minute drive or a 15 minute walk to the downtown area (1.5 hour drive from the Calgary International Airport).

Take the first exit into Banff, make a left off the exit. Take the first road to the left, which runs beside "Banff Rocky Mountain Resort" (Tunnel Mountain Drive). You will see a sign that also says to "Tunnel Mountain Campgrounds". Follow the road for about 10 minutes passing the campgrounds and we are the second hotel on the left.
