The room's cleanliness and comfort were impressive, complemented by a warm fireplace. The staff provided outstanding service. The breakfast at the restaurant was exceptionally delicious.

A nice stay in Banff
Clean, comfortable and spacious room—we had a junior suite. Nice amenities and loved the gas fireplace. The pool and hot tub area were nice, though not very large. In general the decor is showing its age, but is well maintained.

Loved the fireplace and the size of the room. Several comfortable places to sit, along with a big desk, dresser, frig, and many extras--a safe, iron, separate kitchen area, just so much. Loved the large walk-in shower. Luxurious drapes. The only thing I didn't care for were the thick pillows, as they give me neck aches. The cost of breakfast was exorbitant. We ate elsewhere. The lobby was lovely with the wood fire going. Staff were very polite and helpful. I would recommend this place.

6/10 Good

On the 2nd night of a 4 day stay the A/C broke and I had to move to another room which was an inconvenience of packing and unpacking. At the end of the stay I asked for a discount for that one night and instead was offered 2 free drinks even though I was alone and leaving with no way of using the drinks. A discount would have been more appropriate.
