Historic building, mountain views, excellent restaurants, friendly and professional staff.
CanadaStunning property with friendly and helpful staff.
United States of AmericaVery large 2 bed Queen with pullout couch. Excellent.
CanadaWe 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.
CanadaI 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.
CanadaThe spa was fantastic & worth paying that little bit extra. Room service & in room dining was also fantastic. The location was a little further from town but had a bus service & not too far of a walk since you can enjoy the river right behind.
CanadaLocation is amazing Staff is nice and accommodating and easy to Work with
CanadaIt was just so grand and beautiful. Love the history, location, views, trails. The staff are all amazing. Definitely want to go back when everything is open after covid!
CanadaLuxury resort at its finest. The hotel was grand, we loved the history . The property was huge and adjacent to Bow Falls and a short walk to downtown Banff. We did see strong negative reviews about the Gatehouse rooms but found just the opposite. It is a short walk to the main hotel and we had a beautiful view of the mountains. We also were right near the stairs to take you down to Bow Falls. Lastly, we loved eating lunch at the Stock Food and Drink. Great Experience!
CanadaWhat I love about the Banff Springs & most other Fairmont’s, is that you are treated like royalty. The staff goes above & beyond making you feel like you are the hottest thing on planet earth.
