The first thing most customers do when researching Banff is head straight to TripAdvisor, but what we know this does is confuse the good, the bad and the ugly and most people end up remembering the ugly.
Banff is a town where UGLY has no place at all. This small Alberta town is known for pristine waters, unmatched landscapes and the softest powder snow. What isn’t well know is that there are so many properties to choose from so where do you start?
The Stuba platform of course. It trawls multiple review sites as well as pulls information from Social Media to give you and the customers the most accurate reviews.
Here are a few of the top selling properties.
FAIRMONT CHATEAU LAKE LOUISE

As you drive up to the property, the grandeur of the chateau is unbelievable. From the moment you step into the foyer, the staff are ready and waiting to help you in every way. It’s like they know who you are already and your bags are whisked away while reception takes a copy of your passport and share the activities of the day.
Winter at the Chateau is spectacular as you can ice skate on the lake, go on hikes to see frozen waterfalls, snowboarding, snowshoeing and horse-drawn sleigh rides. If you are lucky enough to stay around Christmas time the massive tree in the foyer and historic decorations give you the typical Christmas wonderland feeling.
This 552 room resort is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is at the forefront of sustainable and responsible tourism.
