$500 bucks for 1 night is ridiculous! A room thats 200 square foot. No microwave. I get it, its NYE. But gosh almighty yall certainly know how to take advantage of patrons. Actually ALL hotels within Banff and Canmore prices are insane. I should have brought my RV. Lol. No free breakfast at all. Will not be staying again. Oh the underground parking is a perk. Ensure vehicle is 7 foot or less.

Good location and we were happy to have free underground parking. But the breakfast room is not in the same building, which was a bit inconvenient. The bedding quality could also be improved.

Hotel is bare bones basic. Room was clean with adequate space and comfortable beds. Staff was kind and helpful. Parking is free in heated garage. But there are no amenities or washer/dryer in this building. Had to walk across snowy parking lot to use pool, steam room, hot tubs, and laundry facilities. I wish I had known that upon booking because it was very inconvenient. Main building had a restaurant, but again nothing in this building. Overall, decent for the cost.
