First look at Sunshine Village’s new Mountain Lodge

August 1, 2008

The architects designing Sunshine Village’s brand new Sunshine Mountain Lodge, set in the heart of Alberta’s Banff National Park, have released a like-like rendering of what the completed hotel will look like.

The new four-star accomodation, set to open this December, will meet world class environmental standards including:

  • Reuse of materials, where possible;
  • Passive solar through high efficiency windows to maximize heat gain;
  • A 44-per-cent reduction in water use;
  • A 20-per-cent reduction in energy consumption;
  • No increase in footprint over the structure it replaces;
  • Site remediation and planting of natural vegetation.
