We booked an Air BnB in Canmore as Banff was already booked up for locations big enough for what we needed. Banff is more lively than Canmore depending on what you are looking to do. Canmore is only about 20 mins outside of Banff and a little closer to Calgary Airport.

While the northern lights are active all year, the best time to see them in Banff is from September to early April. September is a great month for viewing the northern lights because there's enough darkness at night to see them. If they are visible is between 10PM and 3AM. Some good places to view the northern lights near Banff include Lake Minnewanka and Vermilion Lakes.
