Surrounded by towering pines and panoramic mountain views, the lodge is a refined sanctuary for weekend adventurers, destination weddings, and transformative corporate retreats.

Each of the lodge’s 108 thoughtfully appointed guest rooms is a tribute to the spirit of the Canadian Rockies. Authentic fieldstone wood-burning fireplaces, plush feather duvets, and private baths create a warm, inviting atmosphere that evokes rustic elegance. Guests can enjoy modern comforts including LCD televisions with Blu-ray players, telephones, coffee makers, alarm clocks, irons and ironing boards, and hair dryers. Select rooms also feature private balconies or patios—perfect for taking in the fresh mountain air and starlit skies.

Buffalo Mountain Lodge is proud to offer ADA-approved accessible accommodations in its Buffalo Suites, ensuring a welcoming and inclusive experience for all visitors. For those traveling with furry friends, a limited number of pet-friendly rooms are also available.

After a day spent hiking, cycling, or skiing in Banff National Park, guests can unwind in the lodge’s outdoor stainless steel hot tub—an idyllic setting to relax and reconnect amidst nature’s quiet grandeur.

At the heart of the lodge is The Prow, a culinary destination that redefines Rocky Mountain Cuisine. More than just a restaurant, The Prow is a celebration of bold regional flavors and contemporary culinary creativity. From signature bison dishes to innovative seasonal plates crafted with care, every meal is an invitation to savor the essence of the Rockies.

Whether you're seeking adventure, celebration, or rest, Buffalo Mountain Lodge is where authentic mountain charm meets elevated comfort—just above Banff, and far beyond the ordinary.
