Calgary International Airport

Flying: Closest Airport to Banff is about 3 hours away in Calgary, Alberta. We suggest taking a shuttle from the airport to Banff, if you do you should not need a pass to enter the National Park.

Calgary to Banff Shuttles

Most of the shuttles will drop you off at the Mount Royal Hotel in Banff which is one of the hotels we recomend staying at as it is a short walk to the wedding and reception. Below is the website we used to book our shuttle from Calgary to Banff: https://www.busbud.com/en/bus-calgary-yyc-airport-banff/i/c3nfv3j-c3jg4h?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=poi-en-canada&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjw1NK4BhAwEiwAVUHPUOVCbrq__j12DtNmJ7mRhPmrUplaJBvpMaKW65suFt1DzQ67jQKfXhoC0-8QAvD_BwE

Hotel

Bow View Lodge

The most affordable hotel in Downtown Banff with a river view! Walk to the wedding and reception if you stay here!

Hotel

Fairmont Banff Springs

A castle in the mountains. One of the last Canadian Grand Railway Hotels, originally built 1886. We suggest scheduling a tour if you choose not to stay here, as it truly is like a history museum.

House Or Rental

Camping in Banff National Park

August in Banff is prime camping weather averaging around 73 degrees during the day! Follow the link to see about booking a sight!

House Or Rental

House / Room Rentals

Another good idea if you want to book something for the whole family! We suggest looking in Banff or Canmore. Canmore is a great town just outside the National Park!

Travel Note

Roam Transit

If you are staying in Banff and want to explore the park Roam Transit is fantastic. Busses leave Downtown Banff many times a day to some of the top locations in the park!
