Great warm pool!

We spent three wonderful nights in Banff, and loved the hot tub that the fox had! It was a great design, and very romantic! The room was very comfortable. The hotel was in a good location not too far from downtown, and the bus stop was right in front of the hotel.

I love staying at the Fox Hotel in Banff! The staff are always great, and I love having Chili's to start your night out. The grotto is the perfect way to relax and recoup after a day out. They're always accommodating, and I wouldn’t stay anywhere else when I’m in Banff.

Just ok hotel

The room was just ok. No microwave or mini fridge. No thermostat inside the room No shampoo in the shower had to ask for it after trying to take a bath. Awful bath mat with yellow stains, didn’t want to step on it. No access to your email on the computer they give for guests. Overall just ok.

Romantic get away

Our stay was great. Very nice hotel, but needs a bit of an upgrade in a few rooms. We stayed in 403, needs a new area rug, it was stained. It would also be nice to have robes in the room to where down to hot pools. And the heater in the bathroom didn't work. Overall we still enjoyed our stay

Although the room itself was nice and clean the walkways to the rooms were dirty at least the walkway outside from the main building to our room was dirty, and there were a few cigarette butts along the way. Make sure you read the fine print about your room amenities, the room we booked originally didn’t even have a fridge. Staying 2 nights we wanted a room with a fridge so we had to upgrade for $40 more per night and it was totally worth it! The room had 2 floors, upstairs was the sitting area with a couch the pulls out, kitchen table and 4 chairs, sink, mini fridge, microwave, toaster, kettle, coffee maker, plates, forks, knives, cutting board, dish towels and dish soap etc. downstairs was the bathroom and 2 beds. Overall we were impressed and would definitely come back.
