But what truly sets the Fox Hotel & Suites apart? It’s not just the location or the views—it’s what lies below.
The Underground Cave Pool: An Experience Like No Other
The Fox Hotel & Suites takes clear inspiration from Banff’s Cave and Basin hot springs, and it’s evident in the design of its infamous underground cave pool. Sink into warm, mineral-rich waters, surrounded by rock walls and a cascading waterfall, and you’ll feel transported to a secluded grotto—more of a hidden retreat than a typical hotel amenity.
Tucked beneath the hotel, the pool is encircled by natural rock formations that mirror the region’s iconic hot springs. Soft orange and yellow lighting enhances the cave-like ambiance, while a skylight above lets in natural light during the day, brightening the space and making it feel more open. At night, the pool’s gentle glow, combined with the stars visible through the skylight, creates a calm, almost meditative atmosphere.
The grotto also includes a sauna and showers, ideal for unwinding before or after your soak. Towels are provided, so you can relax without worrying about packing extras.

If you want to get around Banff without the hassle, the hotel offers a complimentary shuttle service to help you navigate the area. With thoughtful touches and a staff that makes you feel like a local, the Fox Hotel & Suites does the little things right.
