View from the spa deck.

Holy wow. What an absolutely gorgeous place! The views here are stunning. We came in late June, so the weather was perfect and it was a great escape from the 100 degree temperatures in the south. The hotel is an older hotel, but the views are worth it. Also, it's within walking distance to the gondola which I highly recommend. They also have shuttle service into town. The staff is incredible helpful. I also recommend using their shuttle to visit Moraine Lake and Lake Louise. It was a great experience. We had Archie as our driver and he was so fun! I'd definitely stay here again.

we stayed here during our first ever trip to Canada particularly coming to Banff the service was so quick the concierge is wonderful they recommend so many wonderful activities for you to do and basically help you to book stuff and set it up the front desk is nice and they always have answers to all your questions there's a pool in the spa on the third floor and that was really nice especially after a day of hiking it's just nice to soak for a while. The rooms were super clean and super nice views the beds were comfortable everything smelled really nice and we felt pampered for the price we paid. there is also bellmans and a valet and buses that will come to pick you up to take you to the town. it felt really nice to be able to just relax remotely rather than be in the hotels in town with all the hustle and bustle.

Very nice old world hotel with amazing views of Mt. Rundle and chauffeur amenities, the guest Roam transit pass, concierge services, a cafe, three restaurants on the premises: the Primrose, the Larkspur, and Eden! The massage at the spa was phenomenal, especially after a long day of travel!! Situated at the top of the town of Banff and between Mt. Rundle and Sulphur Mountain, this property offers phenomenal vistas, as well as, a myriad of activities from e-biking, hiking, to excursions to Icefields Parkway, Johnston Canyon, the Via Ferrata, Lake Louise, Moraine Lake, and Takkakaw Falls, Emerald Lake, and Marble Canyon, or Sunshine Banff trails!! It's an older hotel under constant renovation but it does provide the old-world charm of Europe! The staff on hand are exceptionally friendly and well mannered... the fare offered at the cafe and at the Larkspur outstanding!! I came here on conference and absolutely recommend this place!!

Flawless view.

Beautiful hotel. My room was on the 4th floor, fantastic Mountain View. I appreciate them letting me check in two hours early. The front desk checked in on me for everything to make sure my stay was wonderful, food was good and if I needed anything. It was oddly overly friendly but why would I complain about good customer service :). The only reason I gave her four stars do the oddly out. You almost always have to go to the seventh floor lobby to change over wings (north and south). this was slightly annoying when going to the gym and pool on the third floor which I had to catch from the hallway where the café is. Super funky but this established hotel can't change this-so just be prepared.

WELCOME, PAYING GUESTS!  NOW PAY UP B$TCH and be dinged by this!

One star because THEY CHARGE A PREDATORY $25 for SELF-parking. Ugh! Yeah, seriously!?!? That's really sh*tty to charge this to your PAID GUESTS. Just raise your rates. Hate these types of charges. Low class!!!!

Luxurious Room, COMFY beds.

The best hotel in town for the price, DO NOT be fooled by the other hotels in this town, if you have a Rental vehicle this is the place to stay 100% and get the mountain view room. This hotel is basically a 5 star hotel in disguise, it's probably a Banff secret, trust me. The food is amazing, service amazing, and they don't charge $10 for a bottle of water! From check in to check out this place amazed me and only wish I knew about it sooner.

See all

The RUNDLE Bar & Lounge-…read more My client had just completed delivering a 3-day Signature Program in Calgary, and our event location manager said "let's celebrate by going somewhere really nice." So he drove us into Banff NP. We stopped at Lake Louise, Johnston Canyon, Vermillion Lakes, the cascade falls, and then we began driving to the Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel. What an absolutely beautiful hotel in one of Nature's most breathtaking masterpieces. The beautiful earth-toned cream colored hotel climbs from the lower mountain side and stands beautifully amongst the tall pines surrounding it. We made our way to the Vermillion Bar, where are post worked back in his college days, and were greeted by a super sweet server, Ayala, who lit up whenever she laughed and smiled with you. We enjoyed cocktails, beef, tartare, veggie Credit, charred, avocado, and a unique presentation of hot wings I've never had before - the actual wing that has two bones in it was pre-cut down the middle so you were served the 2 halves as their own individual wing. Great flavors and it was very unique and enjoyable. All of it was delicious and undeniably yummy, and fairly priced for such an elegant location. We were expecting a much higher price point and were delightfully surprised to see that even though it is a luxury location, it was not price gouging or ridiculously inflated that one often finds in so many other locations that are "elegant or nice". If you have the opportunity to treat yourself to a very beautiful sunset under the majestic Mount Rundle, and want to enjoy a modern setting in a historic landmark, this is absolutely a visit you must make while in Banff National Park. Thank you Ayala for treating us so well, and sharing your sweet Australian journey with us. Chris, David, Trisha, and Keith

I was on my way to the Banff Gondola when I stopped here. The hot springs are also located nearby. The original hotel opened in 1888 and has gone through several major renovations and expansions since then. Even if you are not staying here, you have to check this place out. I mostly walked around the outside of the hotel and in the main lobby. Fairmont Banff Springs has two main accommodation areas - the Gatehouse and the historic Main Building. It has a Châteauesque design to it. I love how the hotel stands out within the surrounding Valley. I could even see it from Sulphur Mountain when I rode the gondola to the top. The Banff Springs Hotel has over seven hundred guest rooms and several event spaces. This hotel is worth seeing in person for its size and stunning architecture if you are in the area.

Wow! I love this place! Great location. It's about a 15 minute walk into the heart of downtown…read moreBanff and all the shops and restaurants, and I appreciate that it's a little removed from all that busyness. There is a nearby bus stop too. I love all the amenities here. The hot tubs (they have two) are delightful and they also have a cold plunge pool. I did their cold plunge challenge, where they have a timer set for 3 minutes. I felt amazing afterwards! I love going back and forth between the hot tubs and cold plunge pool. They also have a sauna outside too. They offer free S'mores every day for happy hour, and supplies so you can roast your marshmallows by the fire pit outside. Lots of seating outside and I really enjoyed sitting outside and reading. They also offer board games to play and have a lot of indoor and outdoor seating, so many options of where you can be. They have a full bar with a nice selection. Delicious happy hour wine deals! I love their red wines. The food is really good here too. They have a really nice breakfast buffet and it's included with your room. Pancakes, eggs, sausage, yogurt, juices, pastries, and more. The bar serves snacks and other food throughout the day and evening. I really enjoyed their charcuterie board. So fresh and delicious. Our room/suite was very spacious. Two queen beds and a living room area with a sofa and fire place. The beds were pretty comfortable but not amazing. We had a microwave and refrigerator, and I loved the espresso machine. We also had a dining table. The bathroom had lovely shampoo, conditioner, and body wash from a local company. My only suggestion is that I wish we had more storage options to unpack our clothes. There were some hangers to hang a few items and there was 1 drawer in the nightstand. I wish we had a dresser. Excellent and friendly staff. I really enjoyed the vibe of this place. I would definitely stay here again.

Check-in was easy at 4pm. Every employee we came across was nice and diverse. There's no elevator…read moreso luckily an employee brought our luggage up for us. You can probably ask them to bring it down for you but to save time upon check-out we brought the luggage down a flight of stairs. The room is spacious for two with the king bed. The bed, pillows, and comforter were plush. Slept easily every night. The view from the room is gorgeous especially with snow. I love how the lamps are step-on to turn on. The outlets are also easily accessible. The bathroom is a decent size. There's a clothesline in the shower you can use if needed. I like how the shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lotion, and hand soap were from a 1% for the planet brand. There's a shuttle to downtown and back. Pick up and drop off is always at IGA which is easy to find. You just need to call or let the front desk know when you need the shuttle. I needed post cards to go out and was able to leave them with the front desk. If they get your outgoing mail during the week then it will go out the following week. I also borrowed a pen and a key card for when I locked myself out of my room. I highly recommend this hotel and will book again if I'm in town.

Although we didn't have an evening meal at the bistro we did have breakfast and I would suggest it was one of the best meals ever had. We did enjoy an evening beverage at the bistro each evening of our stay. Again, the view spectacular. The service, great. General pros and cons: Pros: Front desk service, great. Shuttle service to/from downtown was a life saver. Hiking and biking amenities seemed good but we did not participate. Removed from downtown which made it a bit more cozy. We really did like this aspect of the hotel . Cons: a bit dated and in need of some upgrades. Our room was small. Okay for a couple of days but would suggest a room upgrade if staying more than a couple of nights. I like hotels to have some level of market where bottled water, snacks, etc., can be purchased. Juniper did have some juice drinks and protein'ish bars available yet my personal preference is for more options. All in all, a great place to stay, with top notch views and super service. I would certainly recommend you consider Juniper for your upcoming stay.

I thought this was better than expected…read more What was once an old fashioned motor lodge is now a boutique hotel experience. Pro's Newly renovated with windows and doors that open into the courtyard. Grab a table and chairs and have a cozy little setup next to your room. The bathroom is large and clean and updated. Plenty of storage and higher quality finishes. A safe and closet and cubbies and chest of drawers. Check-in is self service and requires an app. Pour over coffee. Free, Off-street parking, on the edge of town. Near a gas station and a bus stop. Super quiet. Never heard another person even though the property was booked the entire time we were there. Cons Price for value is a bit steep but cheap for Banff overall The amenities are really at the Canoe hotel across the street. Laundry. Sauna. Hot pools. Coffee supplies. Restaurant. No early arrivals accommodated. Overall this is a fun spot and worth a recommendation.

Really, really love the designs of the rooms. They blend older, "your grandma's house" kind of bases with a bright, simple style. It's got a unique look that wouldn't seem to work on paper.. but man, they got it down pat here. Rooms were super clean (which is really the main thing I worry about with travel), and RIDICULOUSLY quiet, especially for being a couple shakes away from main street. Seriously, I forgot we even had neighbours. Not a peep of noise all night (on a friday, at that!). Our only real (and small) gripe was the temperature. Despite fiddling with the room heating, it was always just a little chilly. But we had a tall roof, a big window, and perhaps not the best "fiddling" knowledge. All in all, not a big deal :) This place was cute, sweet, cozy and clean. Almost makes you feel kinda bad about wanting to stay in your room the whole day while beautiful banff is waiting outside. (lol) I never thought I'd learn to find forest-floor laminate charming. But here we are.

The staff at the front desk was very friendly and welcoming. She gave us 2 tokens for welcoming drinks at the bar as well as bus passes to use while exploring the town. The lobby was so spacious, plenty of tables and couches to lounge on. We noticed that they also had bike rental and games to enjoy inside the lobby (old arcade video games and foos ball). The back patio area had a small pool and a small jacuzzi along with lounge chairs and 2 fire pits. Upon exploring, we found the coin operated guest laundry room and small fitness room in the basement area. The suite we booked was beyond cute. Felt like they brought a little of the outdoors into our stay. Only downside was that the sink was in the middle of the room but otherwise loved the design. In terms of food they have a small eating area where you can purchase frozen meals and self microwave them. They also have free coffee and tea and a water filling station. There is also a "food truck" that you can order various foods but the menu is limited. Overall we enjoyed our stay. We would definitely consider staying here again.
