Why guests love itThe indoor pool and hot tub won the kids over on the first night, and daily breakfast made mornings much less rushed. We were about a 10-minute walk from Banff town centre, close enough for an evening stroll. Free heated underground parking was handy in the cold, and ski storage kept gear out of the room. It is a straightforward, comfortable family base, rated 8.4 by over 1,700 guests.
