We stayed here for 3 nights Oct 13-16. Didn’t realize we booked as gold member and checked in at the regular concierge. We used the gold member from then on. Breakfast was included as gold member. Espresso coffee was included in the room. I find the washroom was a little too small as the toilet was hiding behind the door. Other than that, we had a great stay.

My stay at the Fairmont Banff was exceptional! The staff was extremely helpful, friendly and professional. I upgraded my room to Fairmont gold and was very happy with the amenities that came with the upgrade. Food was outstanding at the 1888 Chophouse and this was one of my best hotel experiences.
