Room was very nice. Only issue was the mattress, which had an obvious collapse of one area creating a “hole”. This issue was brought to the hotel’s attention when we checked out. Great location in Banff.

Enjoyed our stay at Mount Royal. About the most centralized location you could ask for in downtown Banff (close to all the restaurants and bars). Parking is free and first come/first serve. We didn’t have any issues finding spots even with 6-7 PM returns some nights. It’s about 45 minutes to Lake Louise (shuttles) FYI. Rooftop with hot tubs could’ve been better. Nice feature - guess we just expected more of a bar/happy hour scene up there. Overall - we thought this was the best bang for our buck in downtown Banff.

The location can’t be beat. Simply step out the front door and you’re immersed in the charm that is Banff Ave. Super helpful to have complimentary parking. Room was comfortable and clean. Shower showing signs of age, but nothing unacceptable.

Mountain backdrop and amazing place
The hotel is conveniently located on the main street with easy access to shops, restaurants and transport. The hotel room had a view of one of the mountains surrounding Banff which is was a great backdrop for our stay in the room.
