Comfortable beds and clean rooms. Wonderful restaurant in the lobby, The Keg. Great location, with a bus stop close by. Easily walkable to town from this hotel. The balcony rooms do not offer much of a view, but well worth it when you want to be out in the brisk cool air.

Smokey smell on 3rd floor even 1st thing in the morning was noticable. I was fine, but anyone with allergies or bad sinuses might have issues. Nicely done bathroom withy heat toiletries (I had to stop at Banff Soap Store to p/u the location & soap provided in the rooms - WONDERFUL!). Tired furniture in lobby needs a face lift (sanded and restained woodwork?). Wonderful hotel with great bones. Larger room than I've seen elsewhere - nice to have heater, fan, fridge, free parking and bus pass availability for downtown sipping. Definitely will return

Liked the location and the hot pools. Service at The Keg was good for dinner. However, our room was a bit rundown, a few broken items and hair remaining in bathroom of ceiling and in bathtub. Out of the 4 times over 3 days that we called the front desk for things we required, only once did it ever arrive. Luggage carts are difficult to find when needed, both upon arrival and departure we would search the different floors of the hotel and the parks to find a luggage cart. Not once did we have housekeeping check in to see if we required fresh towels, coffee or glassware and instead we went in search of these things ourselves. It wasn’t a horrible experience, but it certainly wasn’t a great one either.

The hotel rooms have no A/C and to open a window wasn’t an option because of traffic and train outside. My room wasn’t ready at check in time and was given a response that they had several rooms to clean from the weekend.
