Fairmont Lake Louise is absolutely incredible. It's probably the best weekend trip you can do (and even better for a week!).

As others have said Fairmont is great. If you have time, consider driving up to Jasper for a couple days too.

It's incredible! I would have loved to stay at the fairmont properties but they were just too expensive so I visited both for meals. I stayed at the Moose Lodge in Banff town which was a nice compromise. I believe there's a Delta property which is now owned by Marriott. I went just after Canadian Thanksgiving which was a bit late in the season as certain hikes had been shut down due to snow.

Anyone have hiking recommendations for Banff?

The fairmont and do the brunch take a hike and buy ammonites

Spent a week there last year; one of the best vacations in a long time (and being in consulting for 10+ years in the US and Europe, I have been to a LOT of places); we stayed in Canmore just outside the park; very convenient and away from the chaos but close enough; go to Lake Louise, Lake Moraine, Athabasca Glacier and of course spend time hiking. Have fun!

Thanks everyone! Also thinking about Labor Day weekend @Mck1

Agree w D3; we had afternoon tea there - one of the best days of the trip!

Labor Day would be a great time of year for a trip

Take the Banff gondola. You can do a hike up there too.
