Reviews and Ratings
The location is convenient for reaching downtown but may feel small for larger groups. The dining experience was good for breakfast, but the dinner option was disappointing at the high price point.
The hotel has a great location within walking distance of downtown Banff and easy access to shops and restaurants. The rooms, although a bit tired-looking, were decently sized. The service was acceptable, but not overly friendly, with some room for improvement. The dining experience was satisfactory with a variety of options. Overall, it's a decent place to stay for the price.
The hotel is in a convenient location with easy walking distance into the city center. The rooms are smaller than expected, but they include a small kitchen. The service was overall friendly, with some staff members standing out, like Chris K. However, the noise from the AC unit outside was a minor disturbance. The dining options were underwhelming with limited hot items available. The facilities are good, providing essential amenities for a comfortable stay.
The hotel had a few drawbacks like dated and small rooms compared to a previous stay in Jasper for a lower cost, but the staff were incredibly helpful and attentive. The location was convenient, with minor noise disturbances, and the dining options, although limited, offered some tasty choices.
Our stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, while smaller than expected, were functional for our family. The onsite restaurant was a generous size, but the bed was uncomfortably firm. The staff from Australia was fantastic in accommodating our room change request early, making the check-in process smooth.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were nicely decorated with a wilderness motif, but on the small side. The service was good overall, although there were missed opportunities for a more welcoming interaction. The location was convenient, close to shops and restaurants, with a good breakfast included. The dining options were decent, with some room for improvement. The facilities met my needs during the stay.
The hotel had a very poor set up with musty-smelling, outdated rooms, uncomfortable beds, small pillows, dark lighting, and dirty carpet and chairs. The bedrooms in the basement were dark and musty, accessed by a flight of stairs down on a 90-degree turn. On the flip side, the location was convenient, making walking to the downtown strip easy and manageable, although the layout could be more spacious. The dining experience was complimentary and adequate, but guests might need to contend for waffle makers. Despite these drawbacks, the service seemed somewhat nice, although I was advised to buy from the gas station down the street. The price was basic for the charged services, including bacon.
My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The rooms were nice and clean, and the staff was friendly. However, the lack of air conditioning made the room extremely warm, and the noise from outside was disruptive. The room felt a bit small for two people.
The hotel's rooms, although clean and nice, were a little smaller than expected and lacked proper air circulation, forcing me to keep the door open for relief. I enjoyed the cleanliness and proximity to Chili's restaurant, even though it made balcony time somewhat awkward.
The hotel offers well-equipped rooms but can feel cramped for longer stays and lacks air conditioning. The service is generally excellent but can be inconsistent in certain areas. The location is convenient, with easy access to dining options, although the basement setting is less favorable. The dining experience is satisfactory but could use some enhancements.
I absolutely loved staying here! The room layout, with the bedroom downstairs, was perfect for my family. My daughter adored it! However, the early morning noise from the cleaning crew was a bit of an annoyance. The location is fantastic, especially after a day of hikes or skiing, and being walking distance to downtown Banff is a huge bonus.
My stay at the hotel was below standard. The room on the 4th floor was very tatty, with ripped wallpaper, and despite the air conditioning, it was uncomfortably hot. The price I paid was not reflective of the quality, and it was a big disappointment.
