Reviews for Fairmont Banff Springs
Big and personable with lots of choices!
The hotel is picturesque holding a prominent place on the Banff skyline. It really is magnificent. The hotel is big! Lots of people and lots of eateries and activities. It’s a treat to be a guest. It was lovely that the first staff member we met was an Aussie, Charli, as we dropped off our car. We soon learnt that there were many Aussies living and working in both the hotel and Banff. Our room was small which was a little disappointing but the hotel Is popular and they can charge premium prices. Breakfast each morning in the Vermilion Room was great. We had breakfast included in the room rate and so could either eat from the buffet or ala carte. Both are good options. We ate at the Chophouse first night. It’s the priciest of the eateries. Service didn’t meet the price point. My steak was great but my wife had the lamp chops, more than 50% was fat which made it difficult to eat. To their credit, the restaurant didn’t charge us for that meal. My wife had a difficult night afterwards, the fat working its way through her body. We enjoyed Rundle Bar! Great atmosphere and some real characters working there, Rachelle and Charlotte to mention two. The small cafe was a lovely tonic. Toasties and good coffee. Marvellous. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and have no hesitation recommending the hotel.

Cool Castle in the Rockies!
This "Castle in the Rockies" is quite incredible. The view from the room my sister and I shared was breathtaking. Banff is a beautiful place and this hotel just makes every bit of it better!

Amazing stay in Banff!
My son and I had an amazing time staying at the Fairmont Banff Springs resort. Everyone on staff was focused on making our stay most enjoyable and they did. From the VIP Concierge team to our waiter Neil at breakfast in the Vermillon Lounge, we felt pampered. We enjoyed the hotel history tour, the bicycle available on property, the pools and gym as well as in-room dining. The Concierge team also arranged for us to have dinner at Fairmont Château Lake Louise where we were served by Marianne who was very helpful. We had a deluxe room overlooking the mountain and the scenery change everyday due to weather conditions. What a view! Thank you for a great stay!

My Dream Come True
Since seeing a picture of this hotel as a child more than 50 years ago I have wanted to stay in this hotel. Our stay in June completely lived up to my expectations and totally exceeded my wife's. The hotel has a wonderful period vibe and all staff we met were hugely professional and courteous. The outside pool was beautiful and so warm. We ate in the Vermillion and Castello Italiana (Ramsay Bar), both were excellent dinners but the Sausage Tubettini at Castello Italiana was one of the best past dishes I have ever eaten, and the service from Alan the barman and waiter was exemplary. We also stayed at the Chateau up the road and Banff Springs was a much more relaxing stay, with superior service.

Incredible and beautiful!
The hotel is just amazing! Service beyond compare! We booked a full day private tour with Alex at the hotel and had the best day ever visiting the best lakes and sites. He truly loves nature and the animals and is a well-studied historian. Amazing!!!
