We spent three nights at the Fairmont Banff Springs in a deluxe view king room. The upgrade from the standard room (which I have seen) was well worth it. We enjoyed both the view and the room itself. The room was very spacious, and even though the bathroom was small, the efficient use of space made up for the lack... More

Large is right, it had a hallway, large lounge, small sitting area, two wardrobes,... More

If we didn't have a great view out of our window, this review would only be 4 stars. We stayed in the Stanley Thomson wing, with great views over the golf course and mountains. Loved the charm of the hotel with it's intricate passageways and an almost medieval, Hoggwarts look. Excellent concierge staff, very helpful. Room is smallish, closet very... More

The hotel Fairmont in Banff is a classic gem of architecture which prides itself on the service and luixury it gives. We went off season to lessen the commotion that an 890 room hotel can cause. It didn't help. There were crowds of people at the hotel, mostly tour buses from Austrialia, England, China to name a few. The town... More
