We loved everything about our stay. The mountain view room was amazing. Pour over in room coffee each morning on our deck to start the day and hot tub lounge area to end our days. Location is perfect.We liked being out of the main craziness of downtown. Used the free bus pass multiple times to go into town when we wanted(it’s only a 5 min ride). The Sudden Sally restaurant next door is perfect for a good meal or grab n go sandwiches for hiking. The good folk restaurant is also amazing just a bit fancier. The staff are very friendly. I have no complaints about this hotel. We would definitely stay there again!

This is a nice hotel, but felt overpriced for what it was. The service was fine and the rooms were large and clean, just dated.

The hotel is super cute….everything modern looking and the rooms have everything you need. Reason I wouldn’t return is because the mattresses need to be replaced. Big time. Not comfortable. Pillows were good but the mattress provided a rough night of sleep.

The property is located directly on Banff ave and is walking distance to shops and restaurants. We also received a bus pass for the duration of our stay- which made for easy access when we didn’t want to walk. We were a bit surprised that we couldn’t use the bar at the hotel until after 4pm, and that coffee wasn’t available until after 6:30am. We were staying in Banff to hike and were often leaving at 5:30 or 6 am.
