We decided to plan a trip around the Christmas activities in and around Banff. Cute lodge, bus stop right in front, good parking and beautiful lobby. Downside was most of the stay one of the elevators was broken and many times we had to take the stairs from 3rd level. It wasn't fun, when we had a tired little one. Also my kids were very disappointed, as I mainly booked this hotel for the pool, once we got there, we realized it was a hot pool. kids did not like it. They lasted 10 mins. Room is very small and very basic. Still once the christmas lights were all lit up, it was beautiful.

Great hotel!
Hotel was lovely! Very clean and comfortable. Indoor hot pool is really nice! Underground parking is helpful during the cold months. Not too far from downtown Banff. Front desk staff weren't very friendly but sufficient for check-in and out.

Rooms are a little oddly shaped, it adds to the charm. Some of the room amenities were on the low side, but otherwise site was clean.

Laundry bins in the hallway the whole time we were there. Got sick eating at the hot restraint. Upgraded for a better view, but as told cascade mountain view... could only see homes across the street. Same old scam.

This property was a nice stay, the hot tub was very nice and the room was nice, clean and quaint. The only thing we were not happy with was the food at the Keg, over prices and not very tasty.
