A beautiful, large room with a lovely river view made for a comfortable stay. The location is ideal for accessing town and nearby trails, with elk often spotted along the river. However, a requested room upgrade was denied despite the hotel being nearly empty. Additionally, while the staff was accommodating, the dining options, especially for barbecues, could have been better.

The final verdict on this
My stay was delightful! The room was cozy with a stunning river view, perfect for morning coffee. Staff were friendly and helpful. The location was quiet yet just a short walk from downtown. While the building shows age, the cleanliness and comfort prevailed. Great value for what you get!

We loved our stay here! The room had a nice view of the river and was clean and comfortable, which made it great for our family with a little kid. The front desk staff were super helpful in planning our day hikes around Banff.
In my kids’ opinion, the pool could have been bigger.

Target audience seeking affordability
Had a decent stay, the view from the balcony was unexpected—truly stunning with a river view right there. The staff were accommodating, they even provided extra towels without me asking!
It was a bit pricey for what it offered, but honestly, I can overlook that considering some perks.
