I’ve visited Banff many times for family trips and usually stay at a hotel a little farther from downtown, but I decided to book here this time for convenience. The location is great and the staff were friendly and helpful. The beds were also quite comfortable, which I appreciated. However, I was disappointed with the overall cleanliness of the room. The carpets looked like they hadn’t been properly vacuumed or shampooed in some time, and the bathroom had visible dirt in several corners. When I used the shower, I also noticed a few loose hairs on the walls, which was unpleasant. If convenience and location are your priorities, this hotel does the job. But if you’re particular about cleanliness especially when traveling with kids I would recommend considering other options.

We were here for our 35th wedding anniversary. As soon as the staff found out, they sent us a hand signed card and two bottles of champagne. Very nice! (Warning: We had to change rooms. The initial 'Orbitz/Expedia/Travelocity room was a dumpy broom closet. The new room was great!)

I was pleasantly surprised by how friendly and helpful the staff was whether it was at the front desk to help check me in or the staff in the restaurant. Every single person I spoke to was wonderful. I was served by I think her name was Tilly (sweet Australian red head) at the bar.. I sat and had dinner because the restaurant was too full and she was incredible to watch work and multitask keeping me entertained. I would definitely come back here again. My room was clean and really cute and I absolutely adore the convenience of this hotel. It is right in the middle of all the shops and restaurants it is such a great location. And no noise, which is wonderful. I definitely recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to try it.
