Lock in a great price for Elk + Avenue Hotel – rated 8.6 by recent guests!

to get started.

Friendly staff, ski gear storage, close to the town center, very close to the Ski Big 3's free shuttle stop (like, for a walk of 15 seconds)

Richard, United States of America

We spent 5days and 4 nights in Banff National park, and we stayed in 3 different hotels (we wanted to try different hotels, so we could choose the best one at next time we visit here). Elk was actually the worst one! It didn’t meet our expectation at all! Especially, we stayed at Fairmont Lake Louise one night before Elk, we regretted that we choosed to try Elk.

Cy, Canada

Location!! It was the perfect spot in downtown Banff that was close to everything. Other hotels are further away from the shopping area, but this hotel was perfect to walk to everything. You could also tell money had been spent on the bathroom renovation. I also found it helpful that a coffee shop and tour guide was attached to the lobby. It helped for grabbing that quick bite/coffee before a hike and any questions you needed answering.

Great location, comfy beds, hot shower with good water pressure.

“I would stay again just have to pay attention to the smaller things.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group of friends
- • Family Room
- • Stayed 3 nights
Upon checking the cleanliness of the room we found that it was not vacuumed very well, especially along the base of the beds, as well as some other areas around the room. I also pulled back the mattress to check for bed bugs (there was none) and found that that wasn't cleaned thoroughly either, we found hair on both beds, and if i wasn't so tired I would have requested another room. Room was also in need of some renovations, you can see water damage, you can see where the wall is separating or expanding, and it was very cold and drafty by the windows. I was also a little surprised to find that you deduct a fee for incidentals...you have my credit card, I'm not sure why that would need to be taken off as well and I believe that is the first hotel where i have had to pay this.
Beds were comfortable, room was an excellent size, I loved that it had an "apartment" feel to it. Location was perfect, it was far enough away from the centre but close enough to walk to everything.

My father booked my reservation online, provide the filled out forms and proof of documents needed to confirm booking. I was assured numerous times by the booking agent everything was processed and that check in would be a breeze. It was a bit upsetting that when we did arrive after a 5 hour drive only to be told nothing was processed, only a file was created. Front desk reception staff were very helpful tho,assisted me right away which I really appreciated. The only other minor complaint was there was no bottle water or refreshments in our fridge for purchase in our room but overall the staff was incredibly friendly,location was A+ and our room was in immaculate condition. Will recommend and hopefully visit again.

Pillows were a bit high, maybe a choice of a high and low pillow to give guests options.
Location was perfect, just on the edge of the main strip. Not too noisy at night and close enough to walk to the main strip. Secure parking downstairs free of charge. Rooms were modern and clean. Sheets were clean and Bed was quite comfortable. Nespresso coffee machine in the room, which by Australian standards is much better coffee than most stores. Room was nice and spacious, enough to lay out two suitcases with room to move around in.
