Inside the world-famous FAIRMONT BANFF SPRINGS HOTEL (Canada): impressions & review

[@dougball328]

As has been said by others, Banff is one of the most beautiful places on Earth. We just finished staying at the Fairmont hotels in Jasper, Lake Louise and Banff - all exquisite and all quite different. And yes, the gold floor staff makes your visit feel like a dream. And while the hotels were wonderful, they pale in comparison to the Rocky Mountains. Maligne Lake has 10 of the 20 tallest peaks in the Canadian Rockies around it. Thank you again to all our Canadian neighbors for making our two week stay in Alberta and British Columbia a trip to remember.

[@canadaauroraborealis3958]

Maligne Lake (mah-leen) is a fabulous lake in neighboring Jasper National Park 300 km / 200 miles north of Banff, and at 28 km / 17 miles long it is the largest glacial lake in the Rocky Mountains, but the highest peak there is Mt Brazeau at 11386 feet above sea level, most others are about 10,500 feet, average for the range. The 300 sq. km / 200 sq. mile Columbia and Clemenceau (cle-mon-so) Icefields which straddle the Banff-Jasper Park boundary has the largest number of high peaks in this region, 15 over 11,000 feet, 3 over 12,000 feet, with steep drops of 10,000 feet down to the nearby Columbia River on the west, which eventually reaches the Pacific Ocean in Oregon USA. Thanks for your nice comments, Americans have been visiting this region since the 1950's and a few even much earlier, by far the majority are very respectful, and they are always welcome.

[@andrewthornhill7042]

@Doug Ball How did you like the Lake Louise Fairmont? We visited the Lake out of Banff and were very taken with both locations. Walked through the hotel, and just wondered what it would be like to have stayed there.

[@dougball328]

@@andrewthornhill7042 It was lovely. It is difficult to beat the view out over the lake toward the mountains. Like the Banff Springs, it is an older hotel so the rooms are cozy. Having said that, I would go back to both hotels without a second thought! The Fairmont Jasper Lodge is very different but also worth a stay. It is all one story buildings and there we had a bedroom and a living room. Very rustic. Loved it. These stays were all part of Rocky Mountaineer vacation - can't say enough good things about them either. It was nice to just sit back in the domed car and watch the scenery go by versus driving a car (which I have also done in BC/Alberta)

[@papaprankster101]

@@andrewthornhill7042 the Chateau Lake Louise is actually not a Fairmont Property although it is wonderful it lacks the character and history of the Banff Springs Hotel.

@Doug Ball I thought the Lake Louise hotel WAS a Fairmont property. Has it ever been? I was there in 2009; has it changed owners since?

[@conniecrawford5231]

Chateau Frontenac in Quebec is also a Fairmont. Stick with Fairmont hotels in Canada and Taj Hotels on India- pricey but well worth the cost!

[@edwardauyeung2874]

I don’t know if this was mentioned here in the comments section, but the Vermillion Room is famous for its Sunday brunch. It’s a must for those who are staying at the Banff Springs Hotel on any given Sunday. From 11:30am to 2:00pm, guests can enjoy the brunch buffet that is served there. A reservation is the best way to get a table. As for prices, it is C$69 per adult and C$35 per child.

[@johnluke5820]

This was the largest hotel in the world when it was built.

[@SandraNelson063]

This hotel began all those years ago as a tourist lure, to get folks to use the railway system. Canada was dependent on the railways to move freight and people from one coast to the other. Having a beautiful hotel set among gorgeous scenery right near a railway station was a very tempting destination for the "upper" class of traveller.

Never seen the Fairmont in Banff before. It does look rather majestic. We didn't see too many of the outdoor patios or decks among the mountains but that would bring it all home about where you are. Can just imagine having a cup of tea in the clear mountain air.

[@low8739]

Banff is one of the most beautiful places on Earth. We were there many, many years ago and saw elk just walking around the town. We wandered around and got lost too. So much fun! Do they still have the indoor miniature golf course? We enjoyed that and having a waltz in one of the empty ballrooms. Your tour was lovely. Thank you!

[@rickb4806]

Yes its beautiful. No more elk in the town though. Tourists gdtting too close (pics and petting) and got hurt. Entire town is fenced off but it is discreet and not really noticeable.

[@R16KNK]

2 years ago we overnighted at the Fairmont Hotel at Vancouver Airport following our flight from the UK so that we were fully rested before our 2 day drive to Edmonton. We were not on the Gold Floor but the room had 2 queen size beds and a huge sitting area, however the highlight was the bathroom. I have stayed in hotels with smaller bedrooms! As well as a double washbasin there was a huge walk-in double shower in one corner, a door in the opposite corner revealed a large room containing the toilet. The best thing was the full size bath along one wall, which was made up of sliding shutters to allow the person in the bath to see into the bedroom. Being over 6ft tall, when I was lying in the bath, my feet were unable to touch the other end - it must have been 6ft 6in long. While breakfast was not cheep, $32CD, it was help yourself and everything was wonderful, though they struggled to provide me with a pot of Earl Grey tea, my wife said the coffee was good.

Banff and the Icefields Parkway: the most beautiful places I've ever been.

[@Digitalsurfer265]

I stayed here years ago and loved it. I miss it so much, there is so much to see and experience. It was very cozy in the winter and there was even a wild herd of elk in the yard shown at 11:30. This place is truly magical, from the atmosphere of calming music to the year round outdoor pool.

[@Damremont18]

We visited Banff Springs three nights. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will go again. I love exploring and went all over the hotel. It's massive. I like heritage hotels and oftentimes you find that an old hotel, while grand may be a little tattered at the edges. You don't notice this as much at Banff Springs. For the most part the fabric of the hotel is very well cared for. One of my favourite spots is the Wine Bar which is a wonderful room in the hotel's old library. Completely panelled with mullioned and leaded pane windows it looks like a room out of an old stately home. Beautiful.

[@Unkn0wnGuy]

I live in calgary and visit this hotel often. The spa pools are a must

[@pinkrose8845]

The rock mountains in Canada, including the Fairmont Banff Spring Hotel, is one of the most beautiful places in the World. I have been there during the winter, after a snow fall and during the fall when trees where colorful. Just gorgeous!. Lots of stupid comments from people who probably have never been there. And yes, that is in Canada, not Colorado USA.

[@pappabob29]

We were there last year (2018) the first of October and experienced the early and record breaking snow for that time. It was gorgeous beyond description. Of course, we were among those totally un-prepared for the snow which made it even more exciting. The Rocky Mountaineer train trip heading wast was equally scenic beyond belief. Definitely a experience to try to relive. Being a construction person, the hotel is a destination on its own as are the other original Chateau's in Lake Louise and Victoria. Well worth the trip if you enjoy glorious old buildings.

[@kristianhuttaldrich8506]

This hotel is also allegedly very haunted, from ghosts on the 4th, 8th, 2nd mezzanine level, and parts of the Stanley Thompson wing, to the grand ballroom. And the stairway that used to lead down to the buffet, there is actually a plaque there that explained the alleged events. But this shouldn’t keep you from staying here. I’ve stayed at the Banff Springs, about 13-15 times. Magical every time. This is somewhere everyone must visit!

[@monicamason3414]

Wow. I want to stay one day. Banff was a day trip in the summer, growing up in Calgary. I loved visiting the town.

[@simonpotter7534]

I have had the pleasure of staying at the Banff Spring Hotel. It really does not disappoint and I hope it never changes. You are made to feel like a welcome guest from the moment you drive up to the foyer and has the fastest check-in of any hotel I have been to with your bags getting to your room before you do. The staff are polite and helpful, rooms gorgeous and the restaurant is fantastic. Breakfast at the hotel is an amazing experience in itself with a variety and quantity of foods to satisfy the tastes of all guests. The hotel has amazing views of the mountains with suitably located bars so that you take in the view with a suitable drink. There is plenty to do at the hotel and don't forget to do the hotel tour while there.My comments do not do the place justice but I look forward to the day when I can return for a visit and stay over.

My daughter worked at the Banff Springs and the Chateau Lake Louise. They were both a Awesome experience. We stayed on the Gold floor at the Banff Springs and stayed in the Marquis de Lorne Suite at Chateau Lake Louise. It was a once in a life time experience.

[@Cicton]

The lobby isn’t separated into two check in areas. The left side is the concierge desk and the right side is the general check in with FPC check in as well.

[@NeilSalemMAUSA]

Years ago, I was there in the dead of a very cold winter. It was wonderful. I remember sitting on a couch in a large room with windows that stood more than twelve feet tall, facing the Rocky Mountains. The room was a grand space with a high ornate ceiling. Behind me there was an over-sized fireplace within which burned a blazing fire. I felt warm and safe. But mostly, I felt humbled as I looked up to the mountains above me. What - or who - can compare? The experience was almost religious.

[@jessuhlyn1999]

Lilly Rose , You should treat yourself and go spend a few days. Very expensive I know but we spent a few Christmas’s here when my daughter was young. I asked her which would she prefer, Disneyland or BanffSprings? She chose Banffsprings even though Disneyland was a week in the sun away from our frigid winters compared to 3 nights in Banff! Wonderful memories.

[@chrisgleeton6823]

So, we have a wedding at the Banff Springs this summer in August. I checked on the rates for a Double Queen room like the one the videographer is staying in, although in the regular hotel, NOT the Fairmont Gold Room. Rates started at $849/night for a Double Queen Room with a view of the hotel grounds (i.e. NOT Mountain View).Although the hotel is very nice, $849/night is very rich indeed. We decided to take our camper trailer and camp in Banff for a week instead. We will still be able to enjoy the hotel grounds while at the wedding.

[@megaswenson]

Chris Gleeton, you were smart. Those rooms looked very ordinary, and the public spaces looked pretty ordinary, too. The people in the video looked like cattle. And we'd feel like cattle staying there. The prices you mentioned, are prices you'd expect to pay (for an ordinary room in a decent hotel) in Paris or Manhattan - not at a tourist hotel in the middle of nowhere.

[@OMGWTFLOLSMH]

@@megaswenson - Tourist hotel in the middle of nowhere. The people looked like cattle. LMAO. Um, they looked like people to me. I bet you're fun at a dinner party. Paris, and indeed Manhattan have nothing over the views and atmosphere you enjoy at the Banff Springs. It's otherworldly. There's a reason the rates are high; the market will bear it. One can visit in the off season, shop for a rate and stay for under $300/night.

Avoid Vancouver. Unless you like Leftist culture from Ontario, dangerous foreign gangs from China and a 40 year history of psycho-social experimentation and resulting rot. It is often called Frisco North. It was a nice city in the 1970's, I grew up there. Then I ran away to the BC Interior, the Rockies, and Calgary, to save my sanity. Best decision ever, Banff in the early 21st century was socially and culturally spell-binding, and Calgary retains a sense of clean, fresh, social stability, as does the BC Interior.
