The room was very clean and really appreciated the staff for keeping it tidy for us. The bed and pillows very comfortable : )

Philip Canada

Everyone and everything was perfect. We enjoyed services at the spa and only ate at the restaurants at the resort.

Bruce Canada

Clean, comfortable, lots offered on the property including restaurants and activities

Cara United States of America

The view was amazing, the room well appointed - coffee/ tea/ fridge, slippers and robes provided

Holt Canada

The breakfast was excellent. The staff were wonderful. Tania (level 5 gold front desk) went above and beyond.

Kevin Canada

Historic building, mountain views, excellent restaurants, friendly and professional staff.

Kim Canada

Stunning property with friendly and helpful staff.

Maryann United States of America

Very large 2 bed Queen with pullout couch. Excellent.

Florin Canada

We stayed two nights and everything was exceptional from the dining experiences, scenery, the care for the property and all the history behind it. Staff were so helpful and it was easy to rent bikes and go into town if we needed. Pool areas and spa were fantastic and totally worth the price. Rooms were fairly pricey for the size that we got, however some of the cost probably goes to up keeping an old building and they do it beautifully so I’m happy to support it. I would say it’s perfect for anniversaries or a honeymoon getaway, as they truly treat you like royalty.

Angel Canada

I like its history, above anything else. I enjoyed the Ghost Bride and other "haunted" stories the bartender told, but they kept my wife up all night. Don't get into the topic if you can't handle it.

  • What is the best room in the hotel with the best Mountain View and a Lakeview if there is one

    Any of our Mountain View rooms offer guaranteed spectacular mountain views! As we are located near the town of Banff, there is no lake nearby and therefore no lake views. The Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise offers beautiful views of Lake Louise and is only 45 minutes away from our resort.

  • Would like at least a Queen bed in a room with a scenic view. Are you allowed to drive through Banff presently? I was told in the Summer they had closed the road and you had to get on a bus to go from place to place. Breakfast? At the restaurant in the hotel or you have to leave the premises?

    Thank you for your question, for a room with a view you would have to book anything that would be in out Mountain View rooms. Banff Ave is open, and closed for the summer. The Vermillion Room is our restaurant that serves breakfast.
