Hotel

Elk + Avenue Hotel

The Elk + Avenue is an trendy, modern hotel right on the main drag in Banff. You'll be within walking distance to some of Banff's most amazing restaurants and shopping, AND you're only a 30-45 minute drive from Lake Louise. We stayed here during one of our wedding research trips and were delighted with it.

Hotel

Brewster's Mountain Lodge

Brewster's Mountain Lodge is also right smack dab in the center of the lively town of Banff. You'll be walking distance from everything that Banff has to offer, while still only being 30-45 minutes from Lake Louise -- the best of both worlds! Bridesmaid Jan Rachel stayed here with her hubby Jason and was enamored with the log-cabin style decor.
