I was pleased with the layout of the large bedroom-like room, but it felt cramped and small. The staff were helpful, but some were unprofessional. The location was super convenient, just outside the main bustle of the town. The dining experience was a letdown with limited options beyond cold oatmeal packets. The hotel had a good mix of pros and cons overall.

The hotel room was really spacious compared to other places I've stayed in, clean, and though a bit pricey, it might be the norm for Banff. The separate bathroom and toilet, along with the entry area, were a great feature.
