We had an amazing stay. The room was clean and had everything we needed. I was a little hesitant about staying this far from downtown Banff but having the complimentary bus passes was a huge bonus. It was faster to take the bus for a couple minutes than it is to walk from some closer hotels. Would absolutely stay here again. The hotel having bear spray for guests to use was so convenient as well.
We stayed here (in two adjacent units) on a family trip to Banff -- four adults, four kids ages 11-15. The space was very good for our group overall, if a bit extra-cozy in the living area when we were all together. The counter space in the kitchen ran out quickly, but a lot was done with what was there. Would have liked either some paper towels or more kitchen towels available, and it would be GREAT if you could pay for laundry with a card/phone, vs. coins. Staff was friendly, location was pretty convenient to town, and the hotel included bus passes for our whole group, which was really nice.
Received 1 bottle of wine for our VIP status.
The unit was very comfortable and well equipped
LOVED the lemongrass shampoo, conditioner, body wash etc.

It was nice but the value may not be matching the price point. We had ants downstairs, the bathrooms weren’t overly clean and although they said I was a VIP and got a free bottle of wine, they never delivered. Probably won’t stay here again unfortunately.
The location is far from the center of Banff town, but the hotel offer bus tickets for the guests to travel in the town.
The car can park in front of the building, like townhouses.
Excellent property for family, close to town, quiet, clean, comfortable

The room was spacious and clean. It had a kitchenette too. The staff was helpful and courteous. Bus stop was directly in front of the hotel even though we did not take bus. D.
Beautiful view and a quiet location. It was nice to have a kitchenette. A little bit of room was smelly (for the cooking) but other than that we enjoyed the stay.
