An older property , did not have a River view. Comfortable beds . Booked a 2 bedroom Front desk staff excellent, assisted us with the bus schedule. Prompt maintenance assistance when the microwave and coffee maker blew a circuit breaker. Lovely area to walk to Bow River. Would stay here again, but would like the River view. Used the pool and restaurant in the sister property across the parking lot , very nice facility .

This property shows its age, pool, workout facility, and restaurant are not on site, you have to access the sister hotel across the parking lot I thought this hotel was a bit pricy for what is on site, but it has excellent views of the Bow River, and excellent staff on site. I even got to hear the wolves howling at night!

This property is adequate for a good nights sleep. In general the building, including the lobby and rooms, are dated, and worn, but clean. It is very quiet, the rooms facing the Bow river have a lovely view, the mattresses were comfortable. The location is great. Banff Avenue is only two blocks away, and the Bow river trails are just outside the door.
