Banff Rocky Mountain Resort
Quieter setting, away from downtown. Easy exit to ski hills. Property older and dated, but some upgrades have been done. Room was clean. Parking is tight. Have stayed there multiple times over the years. Will do it again. Enjoy the peace and views over busy touristy downtown.

Very unfriendly staff, got stuck in a basement room for some reason, and the lock to our door broke and we were out of our room until 11pm without any offer of compensation

Basecamp Suites Banff
If you like independent travel this is great. Fabulous location - the staff cannot do enough for you. Toiletries, bin bags, etc included - easy to obtain further supplies if required. Very different to our experience in Europe.
