Very good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Enjoyed the property for the location and size of the room. Staff were great upon checking and through out. Daily housekeeping only upon request and condition of the hotel requires maintenance and upkeep. While hotel listing says mountain view rooms, this needs to be specifically asked for upon booking and it will only be provided upon availability. As others have said, costs reflect proximity and location.
After a long ride through the rockies the room was perfect and just what we needed to rest up. Very good breakfast that was maintained well with the hotel being full. Lots of fast food options around the hotel. Saw families headed to pool and gym.
Front desk is next door at another hotel. For the price of the room per night definitely not a fan of the setup. Location is good and easy walk into the heart of the activity area of town.
Exceptional services, neat and affordable. All the services are available nearby.

Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort
Great location, clean room. Waited a bit for someone to arrive at the neighboring hotel lobby to get checked in. Room was clean, air conditioning cool but ran continuously so not quiet. I like the noise to sleep, just pointing this out for those who need a very quiet room.
The units where you stay is nice.
Caution, the parking garage is very short only 5'10, so double check your vehicle height, and the parkin garage is pretty tight

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Room was fine but the bathroom was too tiny, no room for toiletries. Teeny sink and cabinet crammed right up against the toilet. You could barely move.
For a last minute one night stay it is ok but wouldn’t want to stay for longer. Very outdated some rooms updated but ours was not except bathroom was good and was nice to have a balcony but for $500/night even in Banff I would expect the roof to not be leaking and for the side door to not be open all day who knows what’s getting in there.
Great location, room was clean and very comfortable. My flight got cancelled so I was a day late and they were very understanding and did not give away my room or charge me for the night I missed.
Had to check in at the hotel next to the Red Carpet Inn, so that took a little extra time. Parking is limited and we had a fairly noisy person above us in the evening. Otherwise, everything was very clean, the room was spacious and overall we were happy with everything.
