    Perfect location near town and Bow River with gorgeous views. Spacious private room with comfortable bed and illusion of greater space. Friendly staff with good attitudes and helpful suggestions. Fantastic value for private room with two double beds

    Not one thing.

    Amazing location and great value for money. Stayed here twice, once in March and once in May. Private rooms were spacious and clean. Convenient kitchen facility. Despite a noisy neighbor, the staff handled the situation well and even upgraded us on our return trip. I highly recommend this hotel.

    A classic old place....Nice location near town..walking to main part of Banff was easy..Seemed to be a Hostel type atmosphere related to younger people on a tighter budget. Not a luxury hotel, no TV, but very good for budget minded outdoor oriented travelers.

    No problem of cancellation of my stay

    Rooms clean but in non-modern condition. No frame on window. Carpet on window not able to move. Too much noise though walls both when people talk or close doors.

    The hotel's location is ideal, with easy access to all the attractions and amenities in the area. Guests can enjoy stunning views of the nearby Bow Falls trail and Garden of Time Cascade. the rooms are tastefully decorated and offer picturesque views, with clean washrooms and fresh linen. the staff is helpful and friendly, providing quick service and courteous assistance.

    The walls are thin, making it easy to disturb other guests and receive noise complaints.

    Staff were friendly and helpful. We ate in the cafe for breakfast and enjoyed the coffee and the mushroom/swiss omlette made with love and served by friendly staff.

    I had a fantastic stay at a budget-friendly place in a great location. The hotel was clean and well-maintained. The TV room and bistro were a plus, especially the delicious and affordable pancake breakfasts. The staff was friendly and provided helpful recommendations for things to do and see. The comfortable beds made for a good night's sleep. I highly recommend this hotel for its price, location, and cute atmosphere.

    exceeded expectations on a romantic trip to Banff, Ywca's 24-hour front desk was a savior when our flight got delayed till 1am. Great location near Bow River Trail, short walk to town. Bonus - staff found and shipped lost items for free!

    clogged toilet overnight

    We had a great stay at this hotel! It's conveniently located just a short walk from downtown, so we were able to explore the city and go out for dinner easily. the room was clean and the beds were comfortable, providing excellent value for the price. We especially appreciated the water heater that was provided, allowing us to enjoy coffee in our room. the staff were extremely nice and accommodating, making our stay even more enjoyable. a fantastic experience. Cons: Everything was fantastic! 😊.
