”It’s tough finding meeting spaces for a smaller group in the Calgary area other than windowless, dark hotel rooms surrounded by a parking lot. Hosting the meeting at The Banff Centre meant a great room as well as a great location for an evening run up Tunnel Mountain.”

”PCL has been coming to the Banff Centre since 1991 and we plan to continue to do so. This is a superb meeting venue for organizations who have serious work to accomplish and who prefer professional conference support. In my 35 years in the business of planning and organizing meetings and learning events, I have yet to experience a better location or better services.”

“The Banff Centre is a wonderfully scenic environment to hold an annual retreat. It is far enough away from the hustle and bustle of the town centre to enjoy the surroundings, yet close enough to walk to town should you so desire. The new Vistas Dining Room offers a majestic view of the mountains, and has a wonderful selection of meals. It is truly a mountain retreat!”

“The Banff Centre provides a unique and flexible environment for any size or scope of conference. It is close enough to downtown to take advantage of the attractions while being far enough away to get the true experience of being in the wilderness of the Canadian Rockies with all its wildlife and ruggedness.”
