Review from Sylvie C.

I found a bit difficult to find value for money in hotels and restaurants in my trip along the icefield parkway but my stay, and my dinner and my breakfast and the hike to the waterfalls near the lodge were by far the highlight of my week in Alberta.
I never ever spend that much money on a hotel, not that often on a restaurant either but this was money well spent. After a divine meal, which they kindly and gracefully allowed us to have though we were a bit too late (to try to arrive before say 7.30pm), we had a lovely chat with the waiter who advised us of the great little hike you can do for 1h1/2 to Bow lake waterfalls and back, among other things. Then we stayed in the lounge area and had a good laugh and great conversations with 5 or 6 other people staying for the night. The historic lodge atmosphere with its pool and all the hunting trophies hung on the wall and the old furniture and detailed maps of the region, all that just creates a sensational atmosphere.
Do not come there for a super comfortable stay though. It is quite quiet but that's as far as your neighbours are quiet, and the showers are camping quality :-D and the lamps are ancient and make noise hehe but it's part of the charms of this place. and it is at the doorsteps of Bow lake which is phenomenal. -

Located in between Banff and Jasper, this lodge gets less traffic than other high profile places in the area, which can feel like amusement parks with the throngs of people. It is comfortable and rustic, and not as fancy as somewhere like the Banff Springs. It used to be much more affordable, but the prices have gone up a lot recently. The setting is beautiful, on the edge of Bow lake with a nice hike around the lake and the opportunity to hike to the glacier on the other side. Given the huge price hike, I would only stay here now for a special occasion, but its still much less than other top lodges around.
Specialties
Num-Ti-Jah Lodge overlooks one of the most dramatic scenes in the Canadian Rockies. Out of Bow Lake the mountains rise steep and rugged. The blue ice of Crowfoot Glacier hangs suspended over the turquoise water. To the west, the craggy peaks of the Great Divide tower over Bow Glacier. We are an intimate lodge known for its good food and relaxing atmosphere.
History
Established in 1922
Founded by Jimmy Simpson, Num-Ti-Jah Lodge is a true gem along the Icefields Parkway. Its breathtaking views and friendly staff make it a great location to unwind and relax. The artist in residence program has provided the lodge with a unique collection of art showcasing the area's beauty.

I first found Bow Lake and Num-Ti-Jah Lodge on a camping trip in 2008. The beauty of the area and character of the lodge completely captivated me. I fell in love with the place and have been privileged to call it home ever since.
