It was a beautiful and clean hotel and room. Staff were friendly and breakfast was yummy! Staff even allowed us to pack some breakfast so we could bring it on our Sunrise tour of Moraine Lake and Lake Louise. We walked to and from the Banff Center and we felt safe to do so. Would stay here again!

We truly enjoyed our stay at Canalta. The entire staff was friendly and helpful. The free breakfast buffet made our mornings very easy. I had the best cup of hot chocolate there! All spaces are extremely clean and well-maintained. Our room was comfortable and quiet. Canalta is definitely our first choice for a place to stay for future trips to Banff.

Front desk staff should be educated on how to accommodate guests appropriately and correctly based on the unsafe conditions in the rooms and the number of guests.The client was injured in an unsafe room. The most serious problem is that the customer told the front desk staff that there was an unsafe problem in the room, but you ignored him and emphasized that there had never been a problem.

We have stayed here before, but the complimentary breakfast was very disappointing. We have had this type of breakfast at other hotels, but the Canalta Banff was by far the worst. No fruit, powdered eggs were disgusting and oatmeal was so watery. This is not a cheap hotel and to top it off you pay for parking. They could do better.

We got a balcony room and it was a quaint little stay for 3 of us. The balcony was small but the windows that opened were a nice touch. The location is great, parking is cheap in a heated garage though it is tiny. The only thing we would recommend is an overhead light in the room as it was super hard to get ready etc without the curtains up or after sun down. Could also use a fan to circulate air as if the air or heater doesn't need to be on, the room gets stale.
