Rim Rock Resort
My husband and I stayed here in late September. The staff was wonderful, there are many young Australians and various other nationalitites working at the hotel, they were great. The location couldn't be better. It's a bit above the town, but it's one of the best pieces of real estate in Banff. If you need to walk to town, though it'd be a bit of a walk. There's a hotel shuttle that leaves every 30 minutes. I'll take the view and the staff here, over the Banff Springs Hotel any day. Definitely visit Banff Springs Hotel, but stay here.
Rim Rock Resort
This is an attractive upscale hotel for travellers who want quiet, comfort and fine dining. A shuttle runs directly to town, so driving is not necessary. If you're ready to hike, there is a beautiful mountain trail across the road. Head the other direction to the river. If you are not a hiker, I guess you go into town and ride one of the many tour buses with the old folks. If you feel lazy and just want to sit in a comfortable lobby area and sip your drink, the waiters will bring it to you, and the surroundings are quite plesant. When you are finally stirred to move, ask the concierge for suggestions. This is a full service hotel!
Hotel is excellent, cost of food is very high
Arrival at 3am was excellent. Room was a "superior room" which is there lowest class. It was small but excellently appointed. It had a wonderful view of the mountains and the valley. It is in walking distance of the hot springs and the gondola which are two of the better activities in Banff. Food was above average but not gormet though I thought it was priced higher than it shoud have been. The only real draw back was the parking which is located next to the hotel in a "parcade" that is too small and the space to drive is too tight. This appears to be the second best hotel in Banff and in spite of my nit picking is the best value for price in the entire area.
Rim Rock Resort
This is a beautiful hotel out of the city in the trees. It's quiet and beautiful and close to the scenic spots of Banff.The hotel is of high caliber. Wonderful beds and great views.
Hotel is excellent, cost of food is very high
The info found on online travel website was great. Stay on floor 7 which is the main floor, elevators are very slow. This is a super quite floor and housekeeping was wonderful especailly HAI. Banff was very busy and this was an oasis spot, so very glad we stayed out of the city. The pastries in the coffee shop are akin to a great German bakery and lunch to go is great for hiking out the day and carrying your own goodies. We definitely will go back and this will be a re-do on the reservation.
Elk, Deer, Mountains oh wow, EH!
Rimrock hotel offers excellent accomodations away from the main stream of downtown banff. However, food and beverages are very expensive at the hotel. Banff town offers many local pubs and resturants that have great food for half the price of hotel food. There are no shopping centers near this hotel so travel into town is a daily chore for extras as it is too far to walk everyday. Stay in the premium upgraded room for the best view and balcony area. Lots of activities for the outdoors person.
