What people say

From the moment we arrived until the moment we left, the entire staff treated us exceptionally. They are all professional, respectful, and they treated my daughter like a queen. The hotel itself is amazing and fun to explore, especially in your slippers late at night. I thought the wedding party late at night would be too noisy, but it's fun and entertaining for a little one. Our room was far enough removed as well. The view was a nice one...I'm sure there are better but I can't complain. We di.
all reviews » Jay was the first person we met there with the valet service provided. He was so friendly and nice and remembered our names each time we met him. He went out of his way to make us feel special and this made our first stay here memorable. Thank you Jay! Because of you, we will probably return. Keep up the great work!. Luxury Hotel I was there four days I love it.the building look's like huge castle it's easy to lost there at first day!!& I like the locution. the mountains view was unforgettable. if you going there don't miss the SPA.. I can rate it as 6 Star Hotel. I liked about everything! The staff was friendly and helpful, the room elegant and the bathroom wonderful! The breakfast buffet on the 5th floor was perfect, I enjoyed especially the Bircher muesli and the selection of cold cuts!. The Fairmont Hotel was absolutely gorgeous and the staff could not have been more accommodating and friendly and professional. The restaurants were friendly and very service oriented and made us feel welcomed and appreciated. The staff was awesome - went out of their way to assist - room was spotless Surprise stay for my adult children .... Expensive yes , but well worth every penny !! The location of Banff Fairmont - breathtaking !. location, hotel architecture, always helpful staff nearby, wondefully comfortable beds, interesting shops, flowers outside, amazing helicopter trip and lift to sulphur mountain. This was a couple of days to enjoy for our 10 anniver.Loved every minute. It is such beautiful location andsuch an magnificant building. This is a very beautiful hotel. We stayed on the gold floor and the rooms were very good. We really enjoyed the luxury and club area. Staff was attentive and helpful on the gold floor. Nice room decor on my last minute special request for birthday arrangements. We liked the location, the wonderful history of the hotel, and the generally excellent service. The staff was very friendly and upgraded our room for us because we were in our Honeymoon. It's a grand old hotel although the architecture is austere Scottish baronial at its worst. Best hotel I've stayed at to date. The staff makes sure you are well taken care of. The room was very nice, grounds are beautiful, and food was very good!. The service was excellent, the staff were friendly and polite. Castle Architecture Restaurants Staff Croquet Wildlife Luxury. it was really nice and clean, and the staff was very nice. The room facilities and scenery were all very impressive. Loved the architecture and huge ambiance of the building. Amazing beds and a beautiful resort. Service was outstanding. Stunning Structure. the old ambient s!. I felt welcomed. style, view. Its a great place withgood people. The whole aura of the place. location. Our brief walk in the town. Extra for parking. I didn't like the fact that the restaurants were booked until very late evening. We were both very hungry when we arrived and ended up calling room service. Our dinner (which was very good) was delivered within 20 minutes and we enjoyed that as well. So, I guess you could say we had no complaints!. The Price wear so expansive & not include the breakfast!!. Nothing to dislike!. Not a thing. cost! for Euro zone people, room cleaning not to European standards, food in Italian restaurant,no courtesy room for shower before late departures, Banff getting too expensive, mozzies were very bad this year and food standards have slipped!. Some of the staff on the gold floor were great but others made us feel like we were an inconvenience. The alcohol in the club is an extra a charge and when paying $700 a night I thought that this should have been included for the couple of hours during horderves. In house restaurants were mediocre at best, and we tried three of them. Rooms could use more sound proofing. No fridge in the room. After a nine hour drive, I arrived at 7:00am to have the front desk tell me my room wasn't ready, because they considered me as a no show....and to think that I booked 1 extra day , so I can check in right away upon arrival, and I called ahead the day before. So I stood there and waited some 30 minutes for them to get that sorted out, with no apology offered. One evening we suffered from a loud, drunken party in one of the hotel's restaurants. Despite complaints from other diners, management took no action. Stuff is really expensive there Eg: $2.50 for a can of pop. Having to pay for wi-fi. That is not on in an hotel of its quality in 2013. Spa was quite expensive. No smoking rooms. Pool Layout Parking Charges Difficulty Getting to Room. For what i payed i thought the room would be bigger and more spacious. I was in Panama and had a room same size, but with a deck, hot tub, and 25 yards from the ocean and payed less than half what I did for the gold suite. Room was very expensive for how small it was. Certainly not worth the money for the size of room assigned. I could have spent half the money for a much nicer room elsewhere. Some staff were horrible and you weren't made to feel special or of any importance. Considering the money you pay you would expect a little bit more especially in terms of service. Rooms are tiny. Was annoyed at pop machines not working on any of the floors. Also didn't like that my $100 dollar coupon from Costco was not accepted because I booked through bookings.com. Room was a bit small, but on a budget. Dogs in the Hotel,. At the restaurant we had lunch buffet, we already paid tips by cash,after we got message from bank. we had been charged extra 17 CND dollars. SO expensive for base room, 1 night. Service was poor. I called room service several times and did not receive any service requested or call back that we can not do the service. The price. small room. Gold service, size of bathroom, dog howling in next room, power failure for 2 hours, unfortunately we had less than 24 hrs there for $499. Per night. It was the most expensive accommodation by far of our 23 day trip.
