Lovely hotel about a 10 minute walk into the shopping/restaurant area. Facilities were great and room lovely. Breakfast was a little expensive for what it is (buffet) but no other complaints - would definitely recommend.

I loved my stay! The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly, the location is perfect, and the underground parking garage was very convenient. The dining options are great too - I was able to get breakfast downstairs every morning before going out on hikes and dinner was also very good. The concierge set up a shuttle for Lake Louise and Moraine Lake on short notice which eliminated a ton of potential stress. I definitely plan on coming back to Banff and staying again!

It was ok. Booked a room worh a fireplace that was not provided. Was rated a 4 star hotel but ive stayed in significantly nicer 3 star hotels outside the banff area. Beds were comfortable and staff at reception was nice. Not worth the amount you pay in my opinion.
