“You get what you pay for....”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed September 6, 2012

In Banff, the hotel rooms are $300+ for one room. We needed 2 beds in two separate rooms, so from that perspective, we were way ahead. ($200 per night versus $600). Plus we got a kitchen to save bucks on breakfast. The decor is dated, and student grade, but it's not awful. I would say it's basic, decent, and clean. The location is fantastic, half a block from Banff ave and walking distance to all stores and restaurants. The internet is slow. It is a wood frame building, so you can hear your neighbours upstairs walking around, or between walls. We were lucky everyone in the building went to bed around 10, and woke up early when we stayed there. Lots of families when we were there. (Sept long weekend).
And you can use the facilities at the Ptarmigan.
If you want to save money, go for it. It's not scary, just basic!

Room Tip: If you can get the top floor, it will help with any foot noise.

“Definitely budget acommodation”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed June 23, 2012

Seriously, you can't book one of the cheapest private rooms in Banff, with a kitchenette no less, and expect luxury!

My suite had brand new kitchen, bathroom, paint and bedding (as far as I can tell). The bed and linen is the same you get in the Ptarmigan Inn... very comfortable.

The building... the hallways looked abused, the doors to the rooms and inside the rooms looked original and in need of replacing. The walls are fairly thin, you can hear a lot of movement and conversation from the fellow guests.
Unfortunately as well, there were two rooms of rowdy idiots having a party weekend on the floor below us. A call to the front desk quieted things down, but getting any sleep before 11 (the start of quiet time) was impossible.

I liked the convenient location, and the price, but will likely spend some extra money next time in Banff to stay at the Hidden Ridge Chalets, which are owned by the same company I believe. Much more quiet!

If you are young, budget conscious, and/or don't mind a bit of noise... Rundle Manor is perfectly fine.

I stayed there for Banff Bike Fest and there seemed to be quite a few other cyclists staying there as well. Put all the cyclists in one building next time and the partiers in the other!

Thank you so much for your review. You are correct we have just finished replacing all the flooring and redoing the bathrooms and kitchens, currently we are in the process of painting or replacing all the doors. We are very glad to hear that you enjoyed these improvements.

Although we do our best to try and allocate guest to the appropriate areas, it is difficult for us to predetermine those here to party and those that are here to rest or better yet complete in our Bikefest, prior to check in and even then it is challenging. However we will take this into consideration and do our best improve these situations. Again thank you for your review, and we hope to see you again soon, whether at our sister Hidden Ridge property or any of our lovely hotels

“Rundle Manor”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed April 10, 2012

At one time this was an affordable place to stay but hardly is anymore. It should be renamed "Run Down Manor".
Everything is "litteraly shabby" this includes carpet, walls, paint, bathrooms, kitchenettes, and even window coverings.
Most notriceably the fold out beds are worn out and no longer provide adequate support - Maintenance says the carpet has not been replaced in 15 years - like that is not hard to tell either. Heavily stained and matted.
Typically the doors to rooms have been damged from being kicked in by rowdy partiers and the repairs are less than adequate. Door locks are old fashioned and key control is pathetic to non existant - your valuables are at risk if left in the room!
No air condtioning and no screens on most windows.
Black mold - no joke - can be found in Bathrooms and on the sills of sliding doors to the balconies. The baclnies themselves are fitlhy and clearly ot covered on any housekeeping check off sheet.
Room service is necessary especially when called to replace dirty towels missed by house cleaning staff.

Room Tip: If you want a good room try another hotel

Thank you very much for taking the time to write this review. We are in the process of replacing all the furniture in each of these units, sofa beds included. We are also replacing all flooring and repainting the entire building in the next two weeks. Although these rooms do not have electronic cards, each room has a secure lock and deadbolt and the front door is also secured by the use of guest key provided at check in. We do not have air conditioning, as most hotels in Banff do not, however we do supply screens on the windows in the summer months, to keep flies out. We hope that guests will return to the Rundle over the next short while, when all of updates have been completed.
