Learning how to book and do transport for Lake Louise and Lake Morraine now you can no longer drive to the latter is complicated, not helped by the confusing Parks Canada website. So I'll start on that subject which may make sense to anyone who has tried to already get their head around it. We stayed here because you can actually walk easily to Lake Louise. You can no longer drive to Lake Morraine, so if you have purchased a shuttle ticket online and you have proof of your Paradise Lodge booking or a room ket, you can get a member of Parks staff at the Lake Louise shoreside parking lot to issue your ticket, then take the shuttle connector to Lake Morraine from Lake Louise and back without going to the park and ride on the other side of town to collect a ticket. When we booked there was only Wilson cabin type accomodation available. This is a cosy and quaint wooden cabin. It has basic kitchenette facilities, cereal bars and packets of instant oats. There is no restaurant or breakfast available however there are some basic supplies available from reception. In the evening, you have a 5-10 drive into town for restaurants, although you could walk in mid summer when evenings are lighter. The cabin is quite small. The whole property of rooms, appartments and cobins is set within a very pleasant wooded environment. Staff were very helpful. We only stayed for one night but it was very pleasant. However it was CAD 668, £380 for the night which is very high for what you get, that's market forces for you.

Loved Paradise Lodge & Bungalows! We stayed in a Fairview Suite in the Lodge. It was perfect! It had a feel of hominess and was very comfortable. The unit was spotless and had all the necessities needed for the bath and kitchen. The views surrounding the property are breathtaking! The property staff were amazing! They were very professional, kind, and helpful. I would recommend this property to anyone. The only notations I would make are about the area. This property is located very close to Lake Louise and Moraine Lake. However, in order to visit Lake Louise, private parking is $36.75 and you are not allowed to drive a private car to Moraine Lake. We visited both lakes while staying in Banff, due to the reduced cost of transportation. We took ROAM for $25 total, for two adults, both ways, both lakes. Also, prepare to bring your own food to the Paradise Lodge. There is not a restaurant on site and the restaurants in Lake Louise Village are few and have limited hours. The kitchen in our unit had everything needed to prepare our meals.

Great location, quaint & efficient units. Having a fully functioning kitchen (we cooked every breakfast and dinner there) was nice since the restaurant options in Lake Louise were very limited.

Great location, quaint & efficient units. Having a fully functioning kitchen (we cooked every breakfast and dinner there) was nice since the restaurant options in Lake Louise were very limited. We stayed in a Fairview suite in the Lodge and had a great glacier view. Being minutes from Lake Louise was helpful for the early morning we wanted to get there and find parking (achieved at 6:45am with plenty of excess spots available!). We would definitely recommend Paradise Lodge & Bungalows.

Our stay at Paradise Lodge and Bungalows was excellent. It was everything we had hoped for! We stayed in the Feuz cabin, which was the only cabin of it's type, conveniently nestled at the back of the site out of the way of the rest of the cabins. This meant our balcony area wasn't overlooked by any other cabins and that the only view was of mountains and nature - perfect and a lovely surprise! The cabin itself was compact but roomy enough for our three day stay with a main living area and separate bathroom. We were able to self cater using the microwave and sink area and microwave dishes, bowls, cutlery were all provided along with a toaster and single cup coffee maker. Perfect for knocking together meals and breakfast to eat on the balcony. Had we wanted to eat out, Lake Louise town is minutes away. For extensive options, Banff is about 45 minutes away. Paradise Lodge and Bungalows is about a mile (20 minute walk) uphill to Lake Louise which means you always have that option should parking at the lake have filled up ans shuttles booked up. We opted for an early 6am start and were able to park after a very short drive from the bungalow. Staff were friendly and welcoming and it was lovely to return the bungalow each day to find coffee and cereal bars restocked, the bed made and washing up even returned to the cupboard. Highly recommended.

Paradise is always welcoming and very hospitable. The accommodations are cozy, clean, and well-kept. The porches are very nice. The beds are very comfortable. The housecleaning team is great. We prefer the lodge rooms but enjoyed the cabin at the back of the property.

Best location when visiting Lake Louise. My husband and I booked our cabin a year in advance, this location sells out fast. It is a 20 minute walk to Lake louise, easy access to meet shuttles at the summer gondola. We stayed in the Wilson one room cabin, it was small and cozy, had all the amenities we needed: keurig coffee maker, kettle, microwave & small refrigerator. The time we spent in the area was quite warm, the cabin had no air conditioning but a fan cooled things off nicely.

Great pillows Very clean Kitchen microwave cooker etc Tea coffee Staff very friendly Quiet No noise allowed after 11 2 TVs Great new shower and bath in standard studio We had no 36 Great side room More windows This place is self catering so has no restaurant Buy supplies before you arrive

I would recommend staying here as it is close to Lake Louise. They have trails that you walk along close to the rode, it takes around 20 minutes to get to the lake. We purchased a ticket for the bus to take us to both Lakes..but if you walk to Lake Louise you can jump on the bus anytime after showing them your staying at the Paradise Lodge and Bunglalows and your ticket. They also will let you park your car after checking out if you are going to the lake. The rooms are very nice and clean an had everything we needed. They had a patio table outside our door but was chilly to sit outside for us. All the staff were very friendly!!!

This quiet oasis had all we needed for our two nights in Lake Louise: super friendly front desk and housekeeping staff who made special gestures to make us feel welcome and booked our lake shuttle for us. Adorable Wilson cabin was very clean with a comfortable bed, beautiful hardwood throughout, our own parking spot, and well designed trails to explore the immaculate grounds and mountain views nearby. Check in and check out were a breeze. Thank you for a perfect stay at the end of our Canadian vacation.

We love this place. Exceeded expectations. Rented a cabin for three nights, ver well decorated and updated with amenities. The people here are so friendly. And very close to many trail heads so you don’t need to move your car which is huge! Also quiet. We walked through the Château...

We love this place. Exceeded expectations. Rented a cabin for three nights, ver well decorated and updated with amenities. The people here are so friendly. And very close to many trail heads so you don’t need to move your car which is huge! Also quiet. We walked through the Château which was overwhelming with people and honestly would rather stay in our cabin anyway. So glad we found this place. Cannot say enough positive about it

We stayed here for 5 nights in a Mountain View room. The cleanliness of the facility is amazing. The beds are so comfortable and housekeeping was outstanding. The staff is very friendly and helpful also. I wish their standards of cleanliness were found everywhere! The only drawback was that our...

We stayed here for 5 nights in a Mountain View room. The cleanliness of the facility is amazing. The beds are so comfortable and housekeeping was outstanding. The staff is very friendly and helpful also. I wish their standards of cleanliness were found everywhere! The only drawback was that our room faced the road so it could get noisy but cool enough to close the windows and not hear anything at all at night. Also you can walk a trail to Lake Louise very easily. It is a great place to stay.

Entire Banff, Lake Louise and Jasper area is overpriced and price gouging during prime summer is common so this property is quite expensive for what you get for your money. We stayed at this property for two nights. One night in a cabin and another in a regular lodge like...

Entire Banff, Lake Louise and Jasper area is overpriced and price gouging during prime summer is common so this property is quite expensive for what you get for your money. We stayed at this property for two nights. One night in a cabin and another in a regular lodge like room. Rooms were clean and the area fairly quiet. The mattresses badly need an update. The lodge is within walking distance to Lake Louise. In about 20 minutes you can get there. We were originally looking at the Fairmont Lake Louise and since our plans were last minute that was sold out. My suggestion is save your money and stay here instead. Fairmont and lake Louise while pretty are extremely overrated and commercialized. We also booked the Fairview limo to Lake Moraine. This was my favorite lake so book and go.

After leaving Banff and visiting a couple of local lakes (Peyto and Bow), it was close enough to check-in so we drove back to Lake Louise. It was very busy and we queued from the bottom of the hill by the service area and crawled to the accommodation. We booked the Wilson Cabin over a year ago and this was more than adequate for our needs. We were allocated number 7, Mt Whyte. There is no air conditioning in this lodge but we were aware of this before booking and although the weather was pleasant, the lodge didn’t get overly hot as there are plenty of trees on the grounds providing shade. A desk fan had been provided (we also had our own USB fans too). Each lodge has its own parking spot. There is a coffee machine, microwave, fridge and a sink in this lodge. Tea, coffee, packets of porridge (oatmeal) and two cereal bars are provided and refreshed daily. There is a small table and chairs. There is also a safe which was handy to lock away valuables when you are not in the lodge. There is a lovely fire too for the winter months (obviously we didn’t use this when we were there in early July). There was plenty of space and storage provided for our 3 night stay. Our lodge was located pretty much in the centre of the grounds. The BBQ was located to the rear of the lodge and was used the first night we were there. The view from the back of the lodge looks towards other lodges and Whitehorn Mountain. The front looks towards the reception building. After check-in, we walked to Lake Louise (takes around 20 minutes, firstly on walking on the side of the road, then after crossing over, on a footpath set back from the road). All accommodation in the Lake Louise area is expensive, this one a little more. But given its location to Lake Louise and the fact that you can walk, the benefits far outweigh the drawbacks of paying either $21 to park (no cost reduction for a short visit) or for the cost / time element of the shuttle (although this will take you to Moraine Lake too as you are not allowed to drive there). Also, recently I was made aware that they closed the Lake Louise area due to overcrowding, so being a “resident” has its benefits.

My god these are the coolest people and such a cozy cool little location convenient to Lake Louise. But the service and the cool vibes of the people who host you hear are everything. Ask for cabin 21 the small little one on the back slope it's wild and private...
