I went to school in Calgary for a few years and was lucky enough to stay at a bunch of the hotels in and around Banff multiple times. I'd say this place is always compared against the Banff springs for top place to stay on a trip, for me it's tough. The springs is honestly a palace with a fairmont-style... More

We have stayed there in Nov 2011 and the general impression is that it is a very nice property, in a very nice location, well taken care of. It is a bit far from the Banff center, so I guess you will need transportation, but it is very close to the Banff hot springs and to the Gondola that brings... More

Brilliant staff & amazing modern building that manages to blend perfectly with Banff National Park. Spectacular scenery, isolated, but just slightly from th near town. Beautiful hotel, everything is just perfect. For me, beat it's nearest rival hands down at a fraction of the price. Hoping to return early 2013 to catch some powder. Many thanks to all of the...

My criteria for choosing a hotel are the hotel location and the view from the room. The Rimrock was great for both of these. The hotel is away from the town of Banff but it is situated right near the Banff Hot Springs and the Gondola (both worth visiting) and as it is up higher than the town it has... More

We reserved our room through Hotwire, and booked it for 2 adults, 2 kids, 2 beds. We expected an ordinary room probably limited view since it was at a discounted price. Instead, we were surprised to have a Executive Room on the the 9th floor looking towards Mt. Norquay. Stunning view.The room was very spacious, and very clean. All of... More

The hotel, location, service, views -everything is wonderful. Rooms are clean and nice. But I agree with the other comment that the beds are very firm. Primrose is wonderful but pricy. Overall we enjoyed our stay. Thank you for great service!!! More

We recently stayed overnight for weekend getaway. Beautiful settings with the hotel off the side of mountain. Room was nice with double sinks (one outside and one inside the bathroom). I found the bed a bit hard, but my husband said it was just right. We had snacks at the Larkspur. Large nachos were really large and my teenagers like... More

Wonderful service, beautiful location, fantastic service. We will most definitely stay here again. We went skiing in Sunshine and the shuttle took us into town, loaded and unloaded our skis and stored them for us as well. We got an early check in, our luggage was taken to our room and brought down to our car upon check out. The... More

Stayed here for four nights in May. The hotel is well appointed and has splendid views. We had a room upgrade to deluxe so had mountain views. We ate in the Primrose restaurant on the first night. Pricy for what we had. I had to try the Elk! Unsurprisingly tasted just like venison but was very tough. We found it... More

Thank you for completing a review on TripAdvisor. I was pleased to read that you had the opportunity to try the Elk in Primrose Dining room, it is certainly a different cut of meat ~ but one that can be extremely pleasing. I am sorry that you were not able to try Eden, the Taste of Alberta tasting menu that... More
