Abt 11:30 last night saw 4 kitchen staff outside dumping a pot of something, moved closer it was cooking oil, this is it 24 hrs later just left on the road with footsteps spreading it

I love this province. I'm not going back to Ontario - you can't make me 😭😭😭

Was skeptical about the room rate… but I’ve never stayed in such a nice hotel! The staff and facilities were amazing for a family of 4 (kids 5 & 8).

I recognize it’s mid October and not the “busy season,” so we got in on a lower room rate than other times of the year… but it was so worth it (with US exchange rate).

Highly recommend this hotel and Banff in October… weather was chilly, but sunny. We packed warm clothes and didn’t have any crowds around town, on trails or at Lake Louise. The hotel provided plenty of included activities (scavenger hunts, games, family bingo, outdoor heated pools, wildlife tours, and more!). We will be back!

Just wondering if anyone has stayed in HI Banff alpine centre before for staff accommodation whilst working for sunshine? What’s the room situation like and will it be shared bathrooms and kitchens etc? Unsure on what to expect

HI all. I’ve asked a few questions regarding my trip coming up from Christmas Day through 12/30 and gotten lots of great input. I’m sure a lot of these questions get repetitive and annoying but I searched and didn’t see a thread like this in the past few months and things can change so fast in the restaurant world.

I’m a career foodservice guy so when I travel picking the right places to eat is very important to me. We like all cuisines so fire away. Just from some research I’ve done here’s a short list of places on my radar:

Waldhaus

GRAPES

Beer Street Tavern

Block Kitchen and Bar

Anejo 

The Eddie l

Toolouslous

Ramen Arashi

Rinse bar

Banff Ave Brewing

Three Bears Brewing

Thoughts on these? What am I missing?

I am going to Banff from American Black Friday to December 1st over the weekend to mostly snowboard. Seems like a decent storm is rolling in this weekend in Banff National Park. Do you all think there will be decent snow coverage by the time or my trip? I’m an intermediate snowboarder so the double black stuff at Banff & lake Louise I’m not really worried about. Anything else I should do while I’m there?
