Perched beneath Mt Norquay, the modern, pet-friendly Juniper has comfortable rooms, and suites with Jacuzzis and fireplaces, all surrounded by landscaped native-plant gardens. The staff is friendly and welcomes hikers, skiers and cyclists. The glassed-in bistro has a creative menu, awesome views and a big patio. With the Trans-Canada Hwy just below, the hotel gets a bit of traffic noise.
The on-site Juniper Bistro is one of Banff's best restaurants and enjoys spectacular views over the surrounding mountains.
