My stay at the hotel was a mix of great and not-so-great experiences. The location is amazing, close to Banff's main avenue and fantastic restaurants, perfect for a short stay.

The service surpassed my expectations, with friendly and supportive staff. However, the dining options were lacking, leading us to eat offsite each morning.
