Banff wonder

Top notch service thru out. Only thing we would have wanted more of was light in our room.
Scott, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Would stay again!

We had a great stay. The room was clean and there was plenty of room for us. The hallways and lobby could use some updating but it didn't take away from my overall opinion of the place

Awesome stay
ty, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

We stayed at the hotel for one night. The location was fantastic, in the middle of downtown, very convenient to go everywhere. However, the room was not sound proof at all. We were in level 1, and can hear all the discussion from the lobby since 6am in the morning. I won’t recommend to stay especially with little kids or anyone who has trouble sleeping.

Everything was great it would have been nice to know we had an interior room in the booking and the lighting around the sink was absolutely not enough so dim I had to do my makeup outside
