“Terrific location in centre of Banff”

Reviewed 11 May 2013 NEW

I stayed at the Mount Royal Hotel from May 7-10 while attending a conference at the Banff Centre. The Mount Royal is an older hotel situated right in the centre of Banff's small downtown area. While the hotel could use some updating and maybe some new carpets in the rooms, it does offer a terrific location and a very good... More

“It was a disaster”

Reviewed 7 May 2013

When we first checked in it started off badly. The clerk was not very helpful at all. The hotel promised free parking on site, it was full so she instructed us to park on the street. When i asked her where it was ok to park she advised me to see the signs and use common sense. The room was... More

“We'll definitely be coming back.”

Reviewed 22 April 2013

This was our first visit to the MRH and we enjoyed our stay tremendously. We found the charm of the old (and rebuilt) landmark hotel has been well preserved in the details and interior design on the guest room floors. Brewster did a great job of providing all the modern amenities in our very comfortable room. The hotel location is... More

“Great hotel in excellent location”

Reviewed 18 April 2013

This is actually a very nice little hotel situated on the main street in Banff. The location is good as it has a car park but also the buses stop just across the street and can get you to all corners of Banff, other coaches pick up from the hotel to go to Calgary, and the ski centres. A comfortable... More
