A very nice ambience in the hotel and we like the lodge decor. Spacious rooms which were very clean. Ample breeze through balcony doors in the evenings to cool down the room in combination with the fan supplied. The Keg is nice and convenient for food.

Stayed for 3 nights at the beginning of a tour. Large comfortable room which was well appointed. Very clean, plenty of tea and coffee. Hotel is a little way of Banff, but that did not bother us. As we are short sighted, it would helped to have had a shaving/make up mirror in the bathroom, but that is us being picky. Lovely hotel would recommend

Stayed here for 2 nights recently. A quirky alpine styled hotel which was very good. Slightly jaded in parts. however it was very clean and comfortable. Large room and although on the edge of town was still accessible. The KEG restaurant was very good both for dinner and breakfast. Staff very friendly.

A comfortable lodge hotel. Our room was well equipped with a balcony overlooking the back of the town. It was walking distance into the centre of Banff. The staff were very welcoming and helpful especially Emily who made phone calls for us to change a booking.
