Mountain-view restaurants serve up Canadian cuisine while you gaze at those postcard-worthy vistas. Hotels range from luxury lodges to boutique mountain retreats, all within easy reach of Banff's natural wonders.

Downtown District

Banff's Downtown District showcases the Canadian Rockies' rugged beauty with every step. Bow River's crystal waters flow beside the Legacy Trail, while art lovers can explore Whyte Museum and Canada House Gallery. Outdoor shops and the historic Banff Park Museum keep mountain adventurers busy between hikes, and Central Park offers a perfect spot to soak up those jaw-dropping mountain views. When hunger strikes, the downtown area delivers everything from hearty pubs to fancy mountain cuisine featuring local game and trout. Most accommodations blend rustic charm with modern comforts, though they'll cost you more during peak seasons. The best part? You can ditch the car – downtown's wide sidewalks make exploring on foot a total breeze.
