Stay at the Ptarmigan Inn and enjoy a convenient base in the heart of Banff National Park, just steps from Banff Avenue’s shops, restaurants and lively atmosphere.
The 134 recently renovated rooms combine cosy North American style with unique touches, including vintage artwork and colourful headboard designs. The impressive atrium-style lobby, complete with a dramatic suspended skier sculpture, creates a true mountain resort feel, while superior rooms offer scenic exterior views.
Start the day with breakfast at the onsite Meatball Pizza and Pasta restaurant, then return later for stone-baked pizzas, hearty pastas and relaxed dining. After skiing, unwind in the indoor hot pools, steam room or sauna – the perfect way to recharge after a day in the mountains.

About Banff
Ski your way through three incredible resorts around Banff, with 362 runs spread across 7,748 acres of terrain. Regular free ski buses connect you to Sunshine Village, Lake Louise and Mount Norquay, with scenic journeys lasting around 15 to 45 minutes. Keep your eyes peeled as you travel through the forest – you might spot local wildlife, including moose and bighorn sheep. On the slopes, expect legendary light powder and terrain for all abilities. Beginners can build confidence on gentle, wide-open runs at Sunshine Village, while experienced skiers can explore Lake Louise’s famous back bowls or chase fresh powder at Mount Norquay.
Founded in 1883 after railway workers discovered the area’s natural hot springs, Banff has grown into a lively mountain town while keeping its welcoming local character. Today, its charming main street is packed with shops, cafés and saloon-style bars where you can relax with a drink and catch a game of ice hockey after a day on the mountain. With most accommodation offered on a room-only or bed and breakfast basis, you’ll also have the freedom to explore the town’s fantastic restaurants, from Alberta steak houses to spots serving fresh Pacific seafood.
Surrounded by the spectacular landscapes of Canada’s first national park and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Banff offers unforgettable scenery at every turn. Take a walk through Johnston Canyon to discover icy cliffs, caves and frozen waterfalls, or relax in the famous Banff Upper Hot Springs – the natural springs that helped put the town on the map.
