Good stay. Room was warm due to late heat in Banff but we were able to cool the room by opening the balcony door. I was disappointed in the $22 buffet as the food was good but not very warm.

Enjoyable Stay

The check in check out process was very easy. We had now complaints about our stay other than that there was only decaf coffee in our room when we first woke up on day one. The hot pool was a nice feature.

For starters, all hotels in Banff are horribly overpriced. Caribou: My room only had a small window in the corner and was so dark you had to open the door to the hallway just to find the light switches. Bathroom was also dark and not well lit. Toilet ran constantly and shower head was past its prime. Room was 75-100 ft from the spa and the essence of chlorine was always present. These things are minor and forgivable at a ‘normal’ hotel price but not when you’re paying double to triple the rate.

The toilet did not flush properly. It was slow to flush, noisy and kept running. I called front desk to get this fixed but I don’t think it happened. We stayed 3 nights- my friend fixed it by adjusting the chain after the 2nd day because it was annoying. It was an easy fix but I didn’t think I should deal with this on vacation. Otherwise it was pretty nice and clean. The property is abit old - hallway carpet / walls are stained. The pool/ hot tub is smaller than picture. The Keg restaurant is good- would be nice if had option for small morning breakfast such as muffins and coffee.

Rooms great and property very clean. Check in and out was easy. The only dining option in the hotel was The Keg which I have frequented in Ontario for decades and normally love. In this case I was disappointed. While my teriyaki sirloin was very good, my husband's prime rib was most unappealing and looked rather like it had been boiled (or sous vide'd) as it was quite grey. On our last morning at approximately 8:45, we went for the buffet breakfast. Every item was cold. Having said that our previous breakfasts ordered from the menu had been excellent. Bottom line: I would most definitely stay again but would explore more dining options.
