Excellent stay! Rooms were comfortable, clean and cozy. They even upgraded us. I traveled with my 4 year old and it was super kid friendly. Steps from the ski shuttle out front and 2 blocks from all the action in Banff center. Highly recommend.

We like how clean the the room was and it was very comfortable. We did not like how dirty the pools were. The pools were also not very hot. Also some of the showers shampoos and conditioner caddies did not function. At the time we stayed, there was a youth hockey team there and the hallways were their playground. The hotel was confusing to get around at first but after a day was ok. It was unclear if the room came with breakfast so we ate elsewhere.

The jets did not work in the hot tub we were in. It was dirty with sand on the bottom and on the seats. Parking is first come first served so if there is no parking available in the underground lot you have to park blocks away on the third or fourth floor for free parking.
