The Best Places to Stay in Banff National Park | Condé Nast Traveler

"Renewal is at the heart of this 59-room boutique hotel, which is locally owned and family operated. Once the High Country Inn, it was reborn in spring 2025 with a luxe, modern makeover. Hours can slip away at the Nora Pool complex, where saltwater soaks and steam sessions pair with a full-service bar pouring Palomas and Negronis on tap. Grab a snack from the pool menu, or save your appetite for spaghetti and elk meatballs at the on-site, all-day Italian restaurant, The Fat Ox. Then retreat to your room or suite to cuddle up on fuzzy chairs and plush couches. Decor is sophisticated with neutral tones and an enticing mix of unique textures and shapes. In other words, sensory perfection." - Alexandra Toto
