Located 2.9 km from the Cave and Basin National Historic Site, Otter Hotel Banff offers air-conditioned rooms around a 25-minute walk from the Banff Pedestrian Bridge. This 4-star hotel also provides guests with a safety deposit box.

Location

Banff Rotary Park is located only 350 metres from the hotel, and such natural sites as the Cascade of Time Garden is 2.2 km away. The nearby places of worship include The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (650 metres) and Banff Park Church (0.7 km).

You can choose from one of the 146 air-conditioned rooms with free wireless internet and a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, and self-catering amenities like tea/coffee making equipment. Bathrooms, fitted with a separate toilet and a shower, also provide guests with a hair dryer and bathrobes. Enjoy views of the mountain, while staying at the Otter Banff.

Eat & Drink

Dinner is served in the onsite restaurant Folk. You can visit a restaurant situated close by and taste Japanese cuisine.

Leisure & Business

Guests can work out in a fitness studio.

“The air-conditioned rooms, each with a private balcony, make this 4-star hotel a smart choice in Banff. I particularly like that it's walkable to town, but far enough removed for peace. With mountain views, an on-site restaurant, and those rooftop hot pools, expect an experience geared to both comfort and adventure.”
