Great stay with my wife and 2 kids (4 &9) in Jan 2026. Parking was SO convenient since it was so cold. Hot tub was great, restaurant on site was very good as well, buffet or menu for breakfast. Right outside the busy part of Banff, so it was quiet. Convenient coin laundry and lockers for ski/snow stuff.

Checking in and out was nice and easy! We also really enjoyed using the hot pool and sauna. Our room was on the same floor as the hot pool, so there was a chlorine smell which would have been harder to deal with if we had stayed for longer than two nights. Other than that we enjoyed our stay.

We upgraded and we loved the loft with jacuzzi. They had a cute xmas tree and decor on the fireplace which made it cozy. Like having multiple windows and stunning views. Our teens were in a double room with balcony and their room was great too. The public hot tub was cute and spacious. An outdoor tub would be even better. Location and roam bus were great. Staff was nice.
