We stayed here with our 8-year-old twin sons and they loved it. The pool with its hot tub and sauna is very kid-friendly and we hung out there for hours. The rooms are large, comfortable and very quiet. We were pleasantly surprised to learn we could open the door in our room and step outside onto the roof which had chairs and nice spots to relax. Our favourite Banff hotel.

The highlight was the fireplace in the room. It made it very cosy and warm. The room was very clean and comfortable. The staff was great but the restaurant had no vegan/vegetarian options.
