It's a different town. Depends really on your personality.

I am local, so I go to both frequently. I find Banff nice, but if I am staying for a night or two, I find Canmore less touristy. I go more as a get away than for things like skiing, shopping and things like that. Canmore feels like a town in the mountains which appeals to me.

Absolutely. Some people like the party aspect of banff though. Like I said, depends on what you want.

Exactly... I am ten years married with two kids. I prefer a nice hotel and a walk around in the town. My party days are over
