Cosy room in an updated older hotel, excellent price. Nice mountain vibe. Very friendly, attentive staff. Best shower in Banff - terrific pressure and lots of hot water. Good restaurant on site. Hot pool temperature was just right after a day of skiing. Would return.

Room needed vacuuming. Floor lamp didn’t work and white lampshade had yellow stains and a dead bug on it. Found a comb on floor alongside bedframe while I was looking for my earbud that fell down. Along with a couple of black pebbles or something black and hard.
