Perfect for families, ideal for friends and romantic for couples; Douglas Fir Resort and Chalets is a non smoking resort located on peaceful Tunnel Mountain only 4 minutes above beautiful downtown Banff in the Canadian Rockies. Our distinctive alpine resort provides an ideal home base to explore the surrounding natural beauty. We offer a wide range of accommodations including studios, lofts, one bedroom condos, one bedroom loft condos, rustic chalets and large specialty suites. All units are fully air-conditioned with well equipped kitchens and most have wood-burning fireplaces. Families love our two giant indoor waterslides, swimming pool, and kiddy pool. A new multi level indoor playzone provides mountains of fun for young children. Adults can relax in our saunas, whirlpools and steam room. Everyone can enjoy our fitness room, outdoor tennis and basketball, the outdoor playground and barbecue stations.

fun room
The fun center for the children closed early for us. We returned to the hotel just after eight and it was closed or closing at 8:30. When we left the first day and returned the curtains were open and lights were on. The room was awesome and the beds were great.

During a 10 day road trip with 3 kids this is where the kids wished we spent the whole vacation. Indoor pool open until 10:00pm and the waterslide pools open until 9:00 pm. The murphy bed was very comfortable so the kids got the loft and we got the murphy bed to relax and watch TV after they were in bed. We could do touristy things (gondola was a hit, get discount through the resort!) and still keep our promise of going swimming in the evening! Nice to have kitchen available since the meal prices in the resort town were insane! Did our laundry while at the pool one evening, grabbed a bottle of wine at the little store and put the kids to bed exhasted! Drive to downtown Banff in 5 minutes and see what you need to see. I did not think it was that important to be within walking distance to downtown, especially with younger kids. There were only so many hours of shopping they could take! There is a cow store downtown that has the best ice cream and cute cow themed things. Hope this helps! I know I toiled over the decision of where to stay, but the kids made a point to tell me "this is the best place on earth!" (ages 9, 4 and 2)
Great Choice!
We had heard about the Douglas Fir through a friend for their huge playground for kids - it was awesome! My two little boys (both under 7) begged to go every morning! And what a delight - mom can just sit there and relax - it was wonderful. The rooms were very spacious and clean and it was great to have a full kitchen - with a small family it was nice to be able to grab some food at the local shop and cook at home sometimes. Great place for families on a bit of a budget!
I have stayed at the DFR many times, both when I was a youth with my parents, with my then-boyfriend and my now-fiancee. We have been pleased both times we stayed and plan to marry in Banff and stay at the DFR while there. Staff was caring, clean and friendly.
Booked because of the indoor playground which was impressive but the hotel should have spent their money on better cleaning training and some customer service seminars. Room was disgusting, staff seemed not to care. We left and check in across the street at Tunnel Mountain where they seemed to appreciate our business. Stay Away From DFR
Great Value!!
