Half the staff was good, the other was belittling to my elder mother. Property is not exactly walking distance for the main restaurants. The high price is literally absorb for this property. I understand it is Banff of this property is not worth $600+ a night.

We had a great stay overall! The hotel is in a very convenient location—everything was walkable, from breakfast and dinner spots to local shops and even a convenience store. It felt completely safe walking around, even in the evenings, and the area had some fantastic coffee options just steps away. The hotel is also pet-friendly, which was a huge bonus for us. Our furry companion was just as welcomed as we were. The staff was absolutely incredible—genuinely kind, helpful, and always checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. They truly made the experience better. The room itself was spacious and clean, with plenty of towels provided and a good setup. We stayed on the second floor and loved the little patio area outside where we could sit and enjoy the sunset. The air-conditioning worked well, which was a must for comfort. That said, there were a couple of comfort issues. The beds were a bit hard, and after a few nights, it did start to affect our sleep. The biggest surprise, though, was the pillowcases—they felt oddly paper-like. As we moved during the night, the sound and texture were distracting, and I really wish I had brought my own pillow for that reason. It’s a small detail, but one that had a noticeable impact on sleep quality. All in all, I would still recommend this hotel, especially for its location, pet-friendliness, and amazing staff. Just maybe bring your own pillow if you're a light sleeper!

A stomach turning experience

I did not enjoy my stay. The first morning I went downstairs to get coffee. The cream wasn’t coming out, so I opened the lid and found a big black bug or fly. The coffee was horrible, and it looked like it had been sitting there for a while.. We were not told about the buttons in the room requesting cleaning or privacy. This hotel is way overpriced.

I was originally giving a ground floor room. As a solo female traveler, a ground floor room with a patio door facing the parking lot it is not safe. The shower was not properly cleaned as it had hair on the shower walls.

Our room had sheets that had holes in them , a spider in the shower and a beetle on the bed. There was construction right outside our room so blinds had to be drawn the entire day for privacy as men were driving right by on machines that looked into our ground level room . The toilet ran water all night and the thermostat continually blinked a bright flashing light all night , lighting up the room. The bed was uncomfortable. There was also a dog in the room next to us that barked most of the evening . The staff were very friendly , the location was good, but I don’t feel this was worth the money we paid for it overall .

The hotel is meh, not worth the price

Hotel pictures were misleading to the scale of size of hotel and pool. It wasn’t as nice as it looked online.
