We have stayed at the hotel many times but this time decided to stay in the new wing which has the new Loft Suites. The suites are fairly compact but amazing with the most fantastic views morning, noon and night. The hotel now does room service which is great when you have a young child who is completely exhausted from... More

We completely loved our accommodations and the skiing was excellent. But we did cut short our stay by one day because the staff were unable or not capable of enforcing the rules mainly that of not bringing alcohol on site. For two nights we endured a bus trip of loud and over-bearing young skiiers who took over the two main... More

We returned thier this January and wow, lot's of staff, lot's off attention - it could not have been better from the service side. Eq: our 8 year old decided... More

Booked this room midweek for $120 with a Sunshine Marmot Card. Being right on the hill was fantastic. Booked a basic waterfall view room. FYI waterfall view is not of an actual waterfall... but rather the ski run that you have a view of is called waterfall. The room had the basics, coffee maker and coffee, phone, TV, Bed, bathroom....

I went here December of 2009 with my partner for a romantic getaway. The hotel is at the top of the gondola at the sunshine ski resort. You really can't get much closer of much better than this. The room was absolutely gorgeous complete with super cozy king sized bed, a fireplace, and a jacuzzi tub. The shower was big... More

We got upgraded to a family room in the new wing when we arrived early May. Sunshine was th eonly thing left open in Banff beyond the first weekend in May. The room was clean, nicely put together, though hot and with little control over the heating. We slept most nights with the window open to cool things down. We... More

We stayed here in shoulder season in April. So it was worth the package deal. It was nice to stay on hill for one night but any longer than that and the cabin fever would have set in. I would recommend staying in the deluxe room since it is bigger. The food could be better. In hindsight, it would have... More

this lodge is half way up the mountain, accessed by the Gondola. At the hotel which is nice, there is a inside cafe and a pub type building with a few benches outside. the only access is via the gondola - this we knew but did not realise that the Gondola shuts at 5.30pm so you cannot get off the...
