Stay in the Icefield Parkway at the Glacier View Inn
The Glacier View Inn occupies the third floor in the Icefield Centre along the Icefield Parkway, just north of the Banff National Park/Jasper National Park boundry. Book a walking tour or glacier exploration excursion downstairs and then head up to a room with a view!
The centre is a chalet-style stone building and a model of environmentally sensitive design.
The inn has 32 rooms total. Rooms vary in size and price. Larger rooms are available for families that need some space, while more traditional-sized rooms are perfectly cozy for couples on romantic vacations. Lofts and corner rooms are also available!
Amenities include satellite television, telephones, and spectacular views of the Canadian Rockies or the area glaciers!
Choose between deluxe, mountain or glacier view rooms (the mountain view rooms are a bit cheaper) and look for discounts during the low season (late April to mid-June, mid-September to mid-October).

Hello Claire, We suggest contacting the Glacier View Inn directly for your accommodation request – https://banffnationalpark.com/banff-accommodations/hotels/the-glacier-view-inn/
Trying to get rates is like pulling teeth…..sent email and called,…..seriously???? We want to stay First weekend June…..how do you expect people travelling to plan if you cannot get back to them?
Just called in to book a room in this hotel, reception gave a rate for 219$ for 3 adult and he gave me discount for that third adult with is 20$, towards the end of reservation they want to charge 245$. This is absolutely cheating. I ended up canceling this reservation cause of this imprporitate reservation management
