                                        We just reluctantly returned from our stay at the Banff springs, quick service and this suite also provides a huge private terrace. The pantry offers great soups, sandwiches, etc, big indoor/outdoor pool.

                                        Plenty of restaurants inside the hotel, reasonable prices and staff very helpful.

                                        Room not very clean and very expensive food.

                                        I would definitely stay here again, and the service was great, all of the staff were incredible.

                                        The room was small, overfull of dated furniture, grubby , dirty and food there was mediocre at best.

                                        Great restaurants in town, outdoor surroundings are breathtaking and wonderful Hotel that makes you feel special. Staff is also very attentive and friendly, the rooms are spotless. Breakfast in particular is good value, one of the best things about the Banff Springs is the Spa.

                                        Beautiful facility set into the mountains and the pool area is nice and the hot tub even better. The Banff springs is amazing, the staff are friendly and efficent, the outdoor jacuzzi is perfect for the crisp mornings and evenings. We noticed that Canadians use the word 'perfect' a great deal.

                                        The mountain stone massage was too fantastic for words and the pool and spa area was free. Hotel was very nice and service was superb. The room was fantastic, huge, for such a great facility the food did not meet expectation.
