Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The stunning valley view was amazing, but the rooms were a bit small and outdated. The service was top-notch with great attention to detail, though some minor annoyances affected my overall stay.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean and very comfortable with spacious bathrooms, although the pillows were a bit too hard for my liking. The service was exceptional, with attentive staff going above and beyond to ensure our comfort. The location was magical, offering a special remote feeling while still being conveniently close to town. The dining options were delicious, but the lack of 'sugar free' syrup was a letdown. Overall, a great experience with fantastic views and value for money.
Staying at the hotel was a bit of a splurge but worth every penny. The rooms are very spacious and clean, providing a really comfortable and enjoyable stay. However, there are no views from the lower levels, and some may find the pricing to be on the higher side for the standard offered.
Staying at this high-end hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, though spacious with a huge patio, are showing some age. The service, despite the initial unpleasant check-in, was friendly and approachable, with thoughtful touches like offering a free bus pass. The location, across from the hot springs and close to the Banff Gondola, was beautiful and convenient. Sadly, the dining experience at the hotel was a huge letdown.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were generally great, but a sudden room change affected my dinner experience due to a broken TV. However, the size was perfect for my family of three. Some areas were dusty, and food choices were limited, especially in the main sitting area. The service was accommodating and pleasant, although the room change was a bit inconvenient. The location was beautiful with excellent access to various activities and stunning scenery. The dining experience had its setbacks, with one disappointing incident due to a lack of adaptors and USB charging ports, but overall, the food was delicious with a good variety. Overall, the hotel offered a mix of positive and negative experiences.
The hotel offers a mix of great views and sub-standard rooms based on the floor you're on. The service is top-notch, enhancing the overall stay with a welcoming and professional approach. The location is beautiful, with some minor inconveniences in Wi-Fi connectivity. The dining options are delicious, albeit a bit pricier than nearby eateries.
The hotel offers spacious rooms with amazing views, though the pricing may be on the higher side. The service is top-notch, despite some minor concerns. The location provides easy access to local attractions, though the cleanliness wasn't perfect. Dining options are delicious but come at a higher cost. Overall, a comfortable stay with great service and stunning mountain views.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were very spacious and well-appointed by the staff, offering comfortable beds and a spacious bathroom. However, the check-in time was a bit of a wait. The hotel was clean and had everything to offer, including a convenient pull-out couch if needed.
The grand view suite was mediocre for the price per night, putting a damper on our stay, as the room was hot despite adjusting the AC settings. The location was not up to what I had expected, but the hotel being nestled among the Canadian Rockies provided a beautiful view. The dining experience was the worse I had for years, with rude personnel overcharging for adaptors, yet the food from the menu was worth the price. Facilities were decent, but I had to struggle with staff to address the lack of amenities in the room.
The hotel had the usual overpriced water and snacks in the rooms, which were underwhelming but not worth complaining about. They felt a little old. The service, overall, was extremely courteous and helpful, although there was a small issue with room charge calculations that took an extra 20 minutes to resolve. The location across from the hot springs and a short walk from the Banff Gondola was lovely, though a few kilometers away from town. The dining options provided crazy variety at very affordable prices.
