We had a wonderful stay at **Mount Royal Hotel** in Banff.
Great hotel in a very convenient location close to the heart of the city centre.
They call it the Castle of the Rockies for a reason. The Gold floor was absolutely worth it with excellent views.

Most Beautiful Views, Friendly Staff, great food and rooms!
My husband and I spent part of our honeymoon at Fairmont. Hands down the best experience we have ever had on vacation. The service was impeccable!
Our Stay at the Fairmont Banff Springs was nothing short of amazing.
The customer service everywhere was amazing. The hotel is VERY child friendly. Even the server at the Italian restaurant brought us a wet cloth to wipe our son off with. So kind.

I stayed at the Banff Inn on July 30th and had an absolutely wonderful experience. The hotel itself is fantastic—clean, comfortable, and in a great location.
The loft suite my friends and I rented was just right for 3 adults who wanted to stay together but have separate beds. It was cozy but had everything we needed.
Solid four out of five and overall we really enjoyed our stay here.
Checked in the hotel and Ranish was the supervisor. He was super accommodating and very nice. Had to book a room for work and it was a seamless transition even last minute.
We would definitely recommend the Banff Caribou Lodge & Suites. The rooms very comfortable, clean and we had a good night's sleep. They gave us free bus passes during our stay.
I was happy with our stay! We had a suite with 3 beds and it worked out well. The rooms aren’t fancy but are good for the price and location.
Service was good. Front desk staff were friendly and efficient. Our room was very clean. I did have an issue with our sink not draining properly so they probably need to snake their drains more.
The front desk staff were all friendly and helpful. The bus passes and discounts at their sister property were great perks. The location is walkable to town.
Bit odd that check in is at the hotel next door and on arrival their machine declined my credit card, which was the only time either before or after our stay that there was an issue with this card.
Spent three nights here. Didn't see any staff. Check-in is done next door. No onside restaurant or bar next door. Red Carpet is simply rooms.
It’s one of Banff lodges, which all have good locations. Only 10min walk to the visitor center. Old but clean, no more impression.
But the parking and check-in process are all very confusing.
A phenomenal experience all around this weekend staying at the Rundlestone in Banff.
Clean, spacious, and scenic.
Everything about this stay was perfect. Our room was huge and very clean, providing plenty of space to relax and for our baby to crawl around.
I recently stayed at the Rundlestone Lodge and overall had a comfortable experience. The room was a good size and well laid out, with a king bed, TV, desk, and a pullout sofa.
The Douglas Fir is great for a family stay. We were travelling with 4 children under 9 and 5 adults. We had great space. The kitchens are well stocked to make basic meals. The beds were comfortable.
The chalets are really cool and cozy. Great to see some wildlife and go for walks and hikes out the door. The water slides and outdoor hot tub are awesome.
I recently stayed at the Douglas Fir Chalet, and really enjoyed my experience overall.
