The hotel was ok. Great location, but it lacked touches that could have made it go from ok to good. The lighting in the room was terrible. Really dark. Little things such as being provided the extra supplies for the third person in the room when we asked were forgotten or a map of the area which was not available. However the staff were nice and the room was clean.

You can’t beat the location of this hotel! It is close to everything and right across the street from the Roam bus station. You are given free passes for the transit system during your stay. Parking is also so convenient. The rooms are pretty basic but nothing to complain about - comfortable beds and amazing water pressure in the shower! Very friendly staff. Prices in Banff are crazy everywhere. I thought the prices here were reasonable compared to others.
