DO NOT STAY HERE
If you are expecting two bedrooms, as the listing states you will instead be faced with ONE bedroom and another bed in the sitting area of the hotel room as soon as you walk in. In addition, said sitting area has no A/C nor any screens on the one narrow window so there is no way to get any air in this room. Probably because of this the room smells moldy. When we asked the front desk (of the neighboring hotel as this hotel does not have a front desk) they tried to remedy the situation but there were no screens that they had that would fit the window so they gave us the fan that was behind the front desk! They tried to help in any way they could but there were things that could not be solved. The condition of the room and what meager furnishing it had, the lack of any dresser or table in the bedroom that had a door, no closets at all anywhere. We did ask for luggage racks so we would not have to place our luggage on the floor and the helpful front desk next door brought them over. The entire hotel room did not feel clean and the bathroom sink was dirty. This hotel needs to be shut down and renovated before operating any longer!!!

2nd stay just as great as the first
We had stayed here previously two years ago and decided to stay here again. This hotel is walking distance to downtown and provides free parking for guests. We also received 2 bus passes to use during our stay. The room was clean, and the bed was very comfortable. Should we decide to be in the Banff area again, we will stay here again.

Pros: - the room appeared clean - walking distance to Banff restaurants, bars, shopping - on-site free parking - very friendly staff - room was serviced daily (basic refresh) Cons: - major wear and tear, outdated - could hear every footstep and toilet flush from the room above us - the window A/C unit was so loud when it was turning off and on all night that I had to sleep with ear plugs - VERY expensive based on the quality of the room and hotel The bottom line: the Red Carpet Inn is the equivalent of a small town motel. But at the end of the day, you are in Banff and all you should be doing in your room is sleeping and showering. Despite the cons, I WOULD stay here again based on the location and the price (again, very expensive, but less expensive than other Banff hotels, and the room was clean and comfortable). If you’re picky or have particularly high standards, you need to pick another hotel but know that you’re going to pay a lot more.
