This used to be a terrific upscale property; I have stayed there twice or more for over twenty years. It must have changed hands recently. Several amenities, and some basics have been downgraded or eliminated. It has the feeling of excessive cost cutting and aging for the price point versus comparably priced and rated properties. It was best some time ago when still affiliated with Marriott. Not sure who the current owner is, but it has declined substantially in appeal. Will book elsewhere this summer.

Everything was awesome except for in our room it was extremely dusty and some build up in the washroom. The cold faucets leaked on both sinks when ran. Otherwise super convenient location and helpful/ friendly staff.

This property is a bit outdated but very cozy. We were a group of 10 skiers and we enjoyed our daily breakfast and the ease of walking to the restaurants. Transportation to the slopes was also available but we preferred using our SUV for more flexibility.

Perfect location! Close enough that it's easy to walk to town, but far enough from town that I could still easily get in a bus to ski resorts. The bus was full at this stop, so anything closer to town would have been bad because you wouldn't have been able to use public transit. The price was very affordable! Would totally recommend.

We stayed here with our 8-year-old twin sons and they loved it. The pool with its hot tub and sauna is very kid-friendly and we hung out there for hours. The rooms are large, comfortable and very quiet. We were pleasantly surprised to learn we could open the door in our room and step outside onto the roof which had chairs and nice spots to relax. Our favourite Banff hotel.
