We stayed early Dec 08 and in a 2 bed standard room. When we arrived the hotel looked pretty basic compared to the others we had passed with log fires etc however the location is fantastic right downtown. You get what you pay for with the room as it's on the lower end of the scale but the beds are... more

We stayed at the Ptarmigan for 5 nights and found it as excellent base for exploring Banff and the surrounding area. We had a family room with 2 singles and 1 double bed. The room was very spacious and comfortable. On our last night it was my wife's birthday and as a surprise I had arranged with our family for... more

I wrote a review in October 2008 and find it interesting that it has been deleted. We had a horrible stay at the Ptarmagin Inn and will never return! The hotel is old and in dire need of renovations. The room was so hot our baby could not sleep. When I mentioned it to the girl at the front desk... more

Our room was on the third floor and sweltering. Luckily we had an window that opened to the outside and fan. We opened both windows and set the fan up... more

We just finished a three night four day work team meeting at the Ptarmigan Inn. First let me say, the location of the hotel, is excellent. Right at the start of shopping, restaurants and entertainment on Banff Avenue. The hotel itself is a little older but makes up for its age with excellent staff, fantastic food and desire to make... more

Where to begin? The bed: Best night's sleep we've had in a long long time. What they call their Mountain Feather Beds are like sleeping on a cloud. The location: Soooo close to downtown. I can only imagine how that would come in handy during the ski season on the colder days when you really don't want to go out... more
