Love the breakfast in the morning, easy to socialize at the bar downstairs and get some affordable food and drinks. Service was excellent and very close to everything you need. Would definitely stay here again. Only thing is that the bunk beds are creaky so it’s hard to be quiet when you get into bed in the evening and the noise might be an issue for some.
Banff central location!
Parking in Banff a bit challenging
Breakfast (hot) a nice start before hiking
Good daily eats for purchase each day.
Super Staff
Very nice receptionist. Clean common area.
I was charged a deposit when I booked. Ended up paying full price even after Orbitz explained I paid deposit two months ago.
Staff was really nice and I don't blame them about the mix up.
Breakfast is toast, boiled egg, pancakes, pineapple rings and cucumber slices. It was nice to start my day with a little something in my tummy.
