As someone who has spent a significant amount of time in Banff, Alberta, I know that Banff travel deals are not always the easiest to come across. The same goes if you are planning to find deals at Lake Louise hotels. Typically you will find Banff packages and Banff deals in the off season which is fall, October and November, and spring, April and May. Below are a few of my opinions and comments to get you the best Banff deals possible.
There are three ski resorts in the area that attract travelers from all over the world to experience famous Banff holiday, Norquay, Sunshine Village and Lake Louise. Each offers a completely different travel experience that should be enjoyed by everyone. Personally, my favorite ski resort is Sunshine Village because it has the best views and biggest variety of trails for all levels of skiing and snowboarding.
Every year I get calls from that last minute traveler who is looking to find the best travel deal or last minute Banff packages. Unfortunately it does not always work like that. If you want to get the best deal even it is critical to always book in advance. The best holiday is booked at least three months in advance to take advantage cheap accommodation in the Banff park area. My favorite Banff hotel is the Rimrock Hotel because it offers amazing accommodation specials year round. It is comparably as nice as the Fairmont Banff Springs and is two thirds the price. It is also located across the street from the natural hot springs. Who wouldn’t enjoy a vacation in a natural hot spring in the middle of winter. You can even rent your own bathing suit there if you forget yours. This experience will for sure complete the ideal travel xperience. As long as you have your ski rentals, lift tickets and transportation then you have a wide variety of places to choose from. The main Banff park hotels on the main drag are Mount Royal, Banff Aspen Lodge, Brewsters and then further up is the Fox Hotel, Delta, Banff Caribou Lodge and Spa and the Ptarmigan Inn. When you get about a fifteen minute walk outside downtown you can find great spots at great prices for Banff accommodations like Inns of Banff, Tunnel Mountain and Hidden Ridge.
