“While the spa is a definite draw, especially the hydrotherapy treatments, the hotel's location at the edge of Banff Avenue means a bit of a walk to the main downtown area. On the plus side, the Keg Steakhouse onsite receives consistently high marks, and the Banff Roam bus stops right by the hotel, making getting around easier. For guests prioritizing spa time and good food over immediate proximity to the town center, this could be a solid choice.”
