Brewster Mountain Lodge - Banff

3-star boutique lodge on Banff's pedestrian-friendly Bear Street

Location & History

Brewster Mountain Lodge sits on Bear Street, Banff's pedestrian-friendly district, putting guests steps from restaurants, shops, and the Whyte Museum of the Canadian Rockies (700 ft away). The hotel's interior is defined by log furnishings, western décor, and historic photographs that trace the Brewster family's century-long presence in the Canadian Rockies. An outdoor courtyard with gathering spaces and a lobby with complimentary infused water and afternoon snacks encourage guests to connect between explorations.

Accommodations & Rooms

Each of the hotel's rooms is individually designed and includes a flat-screen cable TV, a kettle, and a coffee machine. The deluxe and Brewster suites add full jetted tubs and separate showers. A number of rooms offer balconies that overlook Bear Street or the surrounding peaks, and all private bathrooms come with a shower, bath, and free toiletries.

Amenities & Services

Guests have access to a dry cedar sauna, a fitness area, and a 24-hour front desk with concierge and currency exchange. The property provides heated underground parking (reserved spots at $25 per night, unreserved at $18), a ski storage room, and a tour desk. A barber/beauty shop, vending machines, and pet-friendly accommodations (with pet basket) are also on site.

Dining & Breakfast

The hotel serves a complimentary buffet-style continental breakfast each morning in the Breakfast Nook, located off the underground parking garage. The breakfast includes hot items such as eggs, sausages, and peameal bacon, plus cereals, pastries, yogurt, and fresh fruit. No on-site restaurant is available, but dozens of dining options-including the Bear Street Tavern and Block Kitchen & Bar-are within a two-minute walk.

Outdoor & Activities

The Brewster Mountain Lodge Banff is a short walk from the Banff Park Museum (1000 ft) and the Vermilion Lakes hiking area (0.5 miles). The tour desk can arrange ski passes, shuttles, and guided excursions into Banff National Park.
