It was good they gave us free Roam bus tickets to roam around Banff and the room had a lovely leafy aspect towards the forest. However the room was quite dated and cleaning of the room could have been much better. We tried to use the oven one night but it was locked and we needed a maintenance person to unlock it!

Really enjoyed our stay unfortunately the pool was closed but the water slides were amazing! The main floor of the room was also very cold the draft from the fire place and door made it freezing at night we did ask for more blankets but still was chilly!

Never A Bad Time To Be In Banff!

Great place if you have young children, or just want an inexpensive place to stay. Property is certainly showing its age but was comfortable and clean. Water park and indoor play structure help keep the littles entertained on days with poor weather.

We loved the fireplace in our room, and cosy cabin feeling. Comfortable bed. A little outdated but a good size for 2 people to live comfortably while on a ski trip. Kitchen very handy. Only thing we couldn’t find was a lighter for fireplace.

The place has a cosy atmosphere, it feels like home. It has everything we need. The only issue we had was the key card was faulty. I have to go back and forth to the front desk to reactivate the key cards, which was not really much of a problem

We have visited and love many hotels in and around Banff, this is the first one that feels disappointing. Hallways and stairwells are a dark and winding maze, easy to get lost. Water leaks from the ceiling in the hallways. Old heating system has first level rooms very cold, upper level rooms hot. Hotel room doors run on old card key locks that failed. The big waterslides and hot tubs are nice, but the main pool was closed.

Very good value accommodation for Banff

Stayed in one of the cabin apartments. Main bed and pull-down murphy bed were both comfortable, room was clean, especially the bathroom. We were on the main (ground) floor, there would be potential for noise from the room above if you had thoughtless neighbours. Free wood for the open fire is a nice touch. Very good range of TV channels available. Kitchen appliances are dated but everything you need is there. The free buss pass if you want it is a very good idea and the stop is right outside. Check-in staff were very helpful, friendly and efficient.

Great hospitality! Great people! A bit outdated but well maintained with cozy vibe. They had everything what we needed, outdoor indoor hot-tub, fireplace in the room, roam bus tickets, underground parking and the best view! There was some issue with shower water but they quickly tried to check and made everything right. Our family enjoyed our stay so much!
