We will be back
The room was spacious, clean and comfortable, great if you like a firm mattress. Very close to a nice pathway by the river, a short distance to historic downtown.

more than you expect
We booked two rooms here to be closer to Banff and didn't expect much. However, we were pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness of the rooms. The mattress was also remarkably comfortable.

We were lucky to be able to do an early checkin at 1:30 pm. That was very nice. Great location next to a park on the Bow River with awesome trails along the river.

It's More Than Meets the Eye
We have stayed here several times and always find it clean and comfortable with room to move around. It's not luxurious but it is very pleasant. We love the little kitchenette and usually eat in the room. This is a motel so you drive right up to the door and conveniently carry your items right in.

Bow River Inn has easy check in and access to room space for mobility challenged guests.
However the walls are thin and noise from other guests can be disturbing.
