The hotel is in a great location. We were able to leave our car in the spacious parking lot and catch a shuttle bus to Lake Louise from across the street. Our room however was cramped with two double beds and, in spite of the high cost and the lobby and public areas being being very modern and sharp, our room and building was tired and in need of an upgrade.

On the 2nd night of a 4 day stay the A/C broke and I had to move to another room which was an inconvenience of packing and unpacking. At the end of the stay I asked for a discount for that one night and instead was offered 2 free drinks even though I was alone and leaving with no way of using the drinks. A discount would have been more appropriate.

Overall great hotel. Beds were very comfortable and loved opening the window for cool air at night. Loved the little pot for boiling water. Our person that checked us in wasn’t very friendly but overall our stay was very nice.

My wife and I had a great time at Royal Canadian Lodge. The staff was very attentive and professional with any questions we had. The concierge was also very helpful with us planning different days around the area. We had a junior suite and it had plenty of room to move around and lounge. The windows opened letting you breathe in the cool morning air while getting ready for your day. Our only complaint was security. We were getting ready one morning to go to Lake Louise, and well you have to be up super early. We had our music playing quietly on our phones as we aren’t loud people in general and are also respectful of other people. Long story short the security guard bangs on our door multiple times making more noise than our music. Not knowing what was going on we called down to front desk to check if this guy was legit before opening door. Evidently they do nightly rounds, but front desk said there have been no complaints from any guest so they have no idea why he knocked. He was really pushy and asked where we were going and why we were going so early, very intrusive. Just to double check when we got back to the hotel later that evening, my wife turned up the music and I stood outside the door, the ONLY way I could hear the music from outside the room was with my ear to the door, and that’s with it turned to max on phone. That would be our only complaint. Everything else was flawless and perfect with everything else..

This hotel was awesome. It was very walkable to downtown Banff, which was just a wonderful city. Our suite was homey and comfortable with a cozy fireplace. The pool, hot tub area was very unique. Staff was friendly.
