Room was very nice. Only issue was the mattress, which had an obvious collapse of one area creating a “hole”. This issue was brought to the hotel’s attention when we checked out. Great location in Banff.

Enjoyed our stay at Mount Royal. About the most centralized location you could ask for in downtown Banff (close to all the restaurants and bars). Parking is free and first come/first serve. We didn’t have any issues finding spots even with 6-7 PM returns some nights. It’s about 45 minutes to Lake Louise (shuttles) FYI. Rooftop with hot tubs could’ve been better. Nice feature - guess we just expected more of a bar/happy hour scene up there. Overall - we thought this was the best bang for our buck in downtown Banff.

The hotel is conveniently located on the main street with easy access to shops, restaurants and transport. The hotel room had a view of one of the mountains surrounding Banff which is was a great backdrop for our stay in the room.

July 9, 2024 after checking-in seeing the route we had to take and then our room along with it’s great views I went back to the front desk made an inquiry. The front desk clerk (Catlin/Catherine) told me that I booked a ‘Heritage’ room on-line and not directly with the hotel. Since my on-line booking was at a discount no changes could be made. “Just to be clear if I had booked directly with this hotel my accommodations would have been different and you could make a change?” She replied: Absolutely! “Good to know I’ll definitely pass this on.” I totally do not recommend doing business with Mount Royal Hotel and any of their affiliates.
