The Hotel
People travel from around the world to witness the breathtaking scenery of Banff National Park. Located right in the heart of it all, you’ll find Brewster Mountain Lodge, a welcoming boutique hotel on the corner of Caribou and Bear Street in downtown Banff. The Brewster Family proudly honours over a century of western Canadian tradition by providing their guests with comfortable accommodations surrounded by the splendor of the Canadian Rockies.
Owners Alison Brewster, Bryan Niehaus, and their daughters Morgan and Joleen are fifth and sixth generation Banff National Park residents. The family is committed to making visitors feel at home, providing the Banff experience through a local’s lens and are delighted to share their home with you.
Walk into the lobby of the hotel, with its Rundle rock fireplace, iron forged arrow chandelier, walls adorned with Navajo rugs and be greeted by staff members that are friendly, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic about making your stay unforgettable.
The 68 rooms and 9 suites offer a welcoming retreat after a day of engaging mountain adventure. No two rooms are the same, providing a unique and authentic stay, for our guests to experience. Inside your room you will find handcrafted pine log furnishings, historic photos from the Brewster Family archives, and beautiful Pendleton blankets.
The property features heated underground parking, complementary WiFi, a dry cedar sauna and fitness area, as well as a small conference room, mezzanine, and outdoor courtyard great for small gatherings. Additionally, the hotel has a restaurant and several local retail shops, many accessible from within the lobby.
“Hands down the best stay I've ever had. I booked the king bed loft room. From the website photos I knew it would be a cool room, but it actually exceeded my expectations. I nearly cried when I walked in!”

Brewster Mountain Lodge is Banff’s only hotel property on Banff’s new Bear Street, a pedestrian-friendly street in the heart of downtown. Our guests get the benefit of convenience being in the center of an incredible food, craft beer, and art gallery scene, so they’re able to focus on the experience.
Brewster Mountain Lodge is located on the Treaty 7 region of Southern Alberta. In spirit of respect, reciprocity and truth, we honour and acknowledge the land in Banff National Park that we reside on. Comprised of the Stoney Nakoda Nations of Wesley, Chiniki, and Bearspaw; three Nations of the Blackfoot Confederacy: the Pikani, Kainai, and Siksika; and the Tsuu T'ina of the Dene people. Treaty 7 territory is also shared with the Métis Nation of Alberta, Region III. Before the signing of Treaty 7, and prior to the establishment of provincial boundaries, this region was also used by the Ktunaxa and the Maskwacis people. We acknowledge the past, present, and future generations of these Nations who help us steward this land, as well as honour and celebrate this place.
We adore the land we stand on and we are proudly committed to our current sustainability practices while actively welcoming new avenues for sustainability and environmentally conscious operations. We actively participate in practices such as recycling and upcycling to reduce our facility’s waste. We also make an effort to take our commitments a step further by reducing our overall single-use plastic by providing environmentally-friendly soap in every room and refinishing our custom log furniture instead of replacing, for example. While there is always room to grow in the realm of sustainability, we recognize our privilege to exist in this awe-inspiring place and we are committed to reducing our environmental impact.
Brewster Mountain Lodge is rooted in over 100 years of history. If you’d like to learn more about the family and hotel’s heritage, click below.
