Very rundown. Very stained furniture. Didnt even want to sit on it. Wallpaper peeling off the walls. Room service didn't come. We had to go ask for more toilet paper because when we arrived there was about 1/4 off a roll. The draw to stay here was the cavern type hot tub, but it was closed for maintenace when we arrived. Nobody notified us prior or we would have not stayed here at all. Amenties are very outdated and not very clean or well maintained. For the price they charged, I would not return.

Loved the hotel and the hot pool was amazing. There are no robes in the room however, and you must walk outside to get to the hot pools, so make sure to bring something to throw on and slippers/slide/sandles for walking back and forth. We did not realice this and were running in bathingsuits and cowboy boots and uggs as it was the only shoes we packed for our one night stay.

Friendly staff at check-in, liked the suite with its private entrance. it was private and quiet, appreciated the kitchenette in the room. The large hot tub jacuzzi pool with the cave theme at this hotel is nice, creates a unique atmosphere. Ample parking between the underground parking and local streets in the area. Appreciated that the hotel gave out free public transit passes for the days we were there. Could hop on a bus for downtown and not worry about having to find or pay for parking. The only slight negative is that like many hotels who usher through thousands of people, some slight TLC is needed as some items are starting to show wear and tear. Showers in hot tub change rooms need some upgrading (new tile) and in our room the walls had a few nicks, wall paper was separating away from wall, a floor tile in our bathroom was chipped and broken and should be replaced as it could potentially cut someones barefeet. Nothing major, but for the price for a night, these small cosmetic things should be fixed and upgraded over time. However, overall, liked the hotel and would stay again.

A must try hotel for Banff.

Overall, I absolutely love this hotel. I’ve been a loyal customer for years now. While some aspects of the hotel show their age, the service is top-notch, and it provides everything you need for a quick vacation or a ski trip. One thing that would be great is to offer mini-fridges in all the rooms. I’ve stayed in almost every type of room, and the basic rooms could definitely benefit from an upgrade. I’ll definitely be staying here again and for many years to come.

We enjoyed dinner at Chilis, which is attached. The pool was unique. However, the room was extremely small. I would not recommend 4 people in a regular hotel room.
