It was good they gave us free Roam bus tickets to roam around Banff and the room had a lovely leafy aspect towards the forest. However the room was quite dated and cleaning of the room could have been much better. We tried to use the oven one night but it was locked and we needed a maintenance person to unlock it!

We enjoyed our stay here. Our kids (7 & 9) had a blast at the indoor play park and loved the waterslides. We liked having the extra space and kitchen area in our room. Made it easy to save some money and have some meals in the room or a place to store groceries.

The upstairs bathroom door handle was broken. One of the teens with us got stuck inside and couldn't open the door (yes it was unlocked). It took 5 of us to try and about 20 minutes before we were able to get her out! She was tramatized! I told the front desk and she said, oh haha there's lots of things broken around here. She didn't write it down or seem to take it seriously, at all. The remainder of the stay, we had to leave the door unlatched while using the bathroom. I feel sorry for the next people in that room! What if someone is there alone and goes in the bathroom? No one will know they are literally stuck in the bathroom! Other than that, they stay was great. Unfortunately, this is what we will remember.

Had a wonderful night staying at the Douglas Fir. Rooms were big and clean and the hotel was quiet. Only wish is that the pool was open in the morning so we could have gone for a swim before leaving! But the kids play one made up for the pool not being open!

The room was spacious and had everything we needed. Loved having full size appliances. The room could have been a little cleaner in areas but overall it was good. The amenities were awesome! My kids loved the water slides and play zone. The free bus passes for Banffs public transit was awesome and the bus stop was close by. Overall a wonderful stay.

Check in staff was less than welcoming and offered zero info about facilities or orientation. Very serious and I would say grumpy with enquiries. Main lodge is old and confusing and I spent 3 days trying to sort many doors and exits out. We finally just started using parking garage to walk out. Monday closure of pool and hot tub was not communicated at check in or anywhere else so unable to use on check out am. If safety is a concern no locks on patio doors or extra bolt of room doors. Free firewood was a positive but no matches or way to lite fireplace. Unclear rules or info about cleaning dishes etc end of stay. Very early and persistent knocking for room cleaning- 0800 really killed the mountain vibe and no chairs or table on patio. Full kitchen was nice with clean appliances. Limited parking

We stayed here 10 years ago and it was decent value then but it would appear nobody has deep cleaned the rooms since then. Our hide a bed sheets had not been changed (found a sock!), the room stunk like rotten burnt food, the fridge had several spills in it that hadn’t been cleaned, and the fridge didn’t work (so we had to throw away food). Cleaning staff tried to improve the smell in our room by leaving the balcony doors wide open all day (which could have led to anyone entering our room but thankfully that didn’t happen). The only redeeming quality were the kind and friendly front desk staff and the maintenance man. I’m sure there are better value hotels in Banff. I’m not usually this critical but it was awful.
