The hotel lobby at the Banff Aspen Lodge is the heartbeat of the property. It’s not just where you check-in and check-out. It’s where you can come relax by the fire, meet new people, and grab your morning coffee. The common space encourages people to mingle and meet new people, exchange stories, and form new friendships. This is what modern travel is all about, and the Banff Aspen Lodge lobby is a fresh new way to meet fellow travelers discovering their own wanderlust.

Here you’ll find a beautiful azure blue pool, steaming hot tub, and cozy fireplace, all tucked into the center of the property in an outdoor courtyard. It’s another great opportunity to meet fellow travelers and soak in the day or simply let your stresses of the day melt away.

Quite, comfortable guest rooms with essential travel conveniences is what today’s travelers want. And that’s exactly what you’ll find when you step into your guest room at the Aspen Banff Lodge.

It’s the details that make the difference. Instantly connect to complimentary high speed WiFi. Find plug-ins and charging ports right at the bedside. And wake up in the morning to a fresh-brewed cup of Nespresso coffee. When you want to relax, turn on the flatscreen tv, or head to your own private patio or balcony to enjoy the scenic views. 

Fuel Your Day 

The Banff Aspen Lodge offers a complimentary buffet breakfast for all guests, which includes coffee or tea, juice, and a feast of hot and cold breakfast items ranging from bacon and eggs to muffins, cheeses, and cereal.
