The staff was incredibly friendly and granted us access to our room even before the usual check-in time. Despite arriving 3 hours early, they allowed us to use the parking lot before the check-in process.

It was a shame that one of the hot tub was broken and had construction around the top section and spoilt the experience as that the roof top was why we choose the hotel, will check with the hotel first and then book the fox

Nice hotel, great lobby and perfect area in Banff. 2 hot tubs, both very small, max capacity 4 and 1 was closed for repair. (Looked long term). Ski lockers were useful and free. Don’t lose the key, $50 if you do. Friends had the junior sweet, great space. Regular double room was pretty small for more than 2 people. Put the door hanger out if you want your room cleaned, otherwise no service. Overall, we’d stay here again.
