    Really good room, spacious (two bedrooms) and clean. The only thing we'd have liked is some crockery and cutlery, bearing in mind there was microwave and worktop. But otherwise, a great room for families.

    Everything was good overall. Just a couple minor things : our room could’ve had used some towel hooks, perhaps on the back of the bathroom door?, as there was no place to hang towels after showering. Also, we felt that our room could’ve used more lighting . It felt a bit dark, especially upon entering the room.

    Communication via booking.com was poor. I emailed many times and no response from hotel. They also took a deposit twice which meant my bank put a hold on card as this was unexpected. I think sauna was broken- didn't use in the 6 days as it didn't heat up.

    Bedroom was beautiful- really clean and comfy. Coffee machine was excellent and bathroom great. Cleaning staff was lovely and polite- always offering to provide more towells/ coffee etc. Steam room was great! Hot tub was also good just not powerfull. Lots of places to eat near by and easy to catch bus to resorts and airport. Italian restaurant downstairs but we didn't there. Would definitely stay again - ticks all the boxes for a great stay!

    I was in a junior suite which had a fridge and coffee machine, but no glasses, plates or cutlery. Being coeliac I need selective food. I was not able to even pour myself a drink or have some in-room dinning - the restaurant at tge inn is not attached to the inn so all they could give was a couple of paper cups and some plastic cutlery- which they did kindly do.

    The room I stayed in was very roomy, clean and comfortable.

    Spa dressing rooms were at the back of the spa, not the front, so you had to walk through the spa to get there

    Rooms were comfortable and clean, staff were friendly Spa was a nice touch, and they allowed us to shower there after check-out to freshen up before our flight

    Microwave is missing in the room. We bought one at Canadian Tire near the Calgary airport and dropped it at the re-use centre at the end of our stay.

    We stayed 6 nights for a ski vacation. Had a large corner room with table and chairs. Newly renovated bathroom. Staff at front desk are amazing. We knew that parking was $20 per night for the locked underground garage which is convenient when you don't want to look for street parking every day. Ski bus stop is next door. If you don't have a car, you can lock your skis in the garage. Walking to downtown takes you 15 minutes.

    Had to request a room change within hours of checking in as room (117) was very close to kitchens and restaurant and the constant noise from both locations was unacceptable 2nd room (215) was quieter but electrics tripped so TV, coffee maker and fridge stopped working, was sorted out pretty quickly though.

    Nice clean rooms, comfortable beds, Fridge and coffee making facilities provided in room Beautiful location and scenery.

    Ground floor and corner room meant it was a little noisy from outside or reception area at times, but it never lasted long and no issue later in the evening. Shower temperature a little temperamental at times. Hotel is a little far from the town compared to other properties, feels especially far in colder weather, but is still walkable and bus stop is close by

    Spacious room, very comfortable temperature despite being -25°C outside. Staff were nice, had all I needed for my 3 day trip. I liked that there was an empty fridge in the room to put items in.

    The photos online indicated that the bathroom was in the entry foyer; however, our bathroom was attached to the small bedroom, which meant that everyone had to walk through that sleeping area to use the bathroom. The kitchenette area in the photos had a microwave and long countertop. Instead, we had a very small counter with barely enough room for a coffeemaker and refrigerator. It would have been nice to have a microwave. I recommend uploading more photos to show the additional family room configurations.

    Front desk staff were very helpful and friendly. I particularly would like to compliment Elmer who went out of his way to help us with the hotel parking and park passes to drive to Lake Louise and Banff Sunshine. While the location was not in the downtown, it was a short walk to many restaurants plus it was next to the shuttle stop. The 3 separate beds in the family room were really comfy and perfect for our group size. The room was very clean, well-appointed and updated. The hotel pizza place also was convenient and useful when the weather was bitter cold. It was a great stay and i'd recommend Banff Inn!

    Parking was a little hard to find on the street. My suv was a bit too tall for their underground parking which was a bit disappointing. Also disappointed there wasn’t any type of breakfast to be offered in the hotel.

    Great location. The bus stop was very close which made it super easy to hop on to run downtown and back again. Room was comfy. Rain shower head was amazing. Hot tub was good.
