Town of Banff

Accommodation

Banff, like a lot of resort towns, is a tricky place to find affordable and nice accommodation.  However, good planning, knowing the system, and having local contacts can help dramatically.  There are places to stay short-term that are affordable, employers who provide staff accommodations, and great private finds. 

Welcome to the Banff Accommodation Game! 

Don’t give up. You will find a place that’s perfect and affordable for you.
