If you really want to explore

If you really want to explore the most beautiful and storied town in Canada – Banff, then Fairmont Banff Springs is sure to be your favorite! This hotel is not only Banff’s most historic and beautiful photo spot, but also a landmark-level accommodation that even locals will praise. Walking from the city, surrounded by good mountains and water, the stay feels really different.

The Fairmont Banff Spa is best known for its castle-like exterior, with towering stone walls and classical details that look like you’ve entered a fairytale world from a distance. There are also a row of big trees near the main entrance, plus the blurry scenery when it rains, taking pictures without washing the filter is already very Feel. Located at 405 Spray Avenue, almost all of the must-see attractions in Banff are nearby, including Bow River Falls, downtown Banff, and Bow Falls, which are a slow walk away.

The interior decoration is as flavorful as the history of the hotel, not only the lobby is Grand enough, even the rooms are well taken care of, the mattress is comfortable, and there are mountain views or sunrises in the courtyard at different times outside the window to enjoy slowly. Toiletries, furniture and other small details can be seen in the texture, even the swimming pool is divided into indoor and outdoor, each has a different feeling - the most beautiful is the outside pool, directly looking at the Rocky Mountains, photography must not stop.

In addition to the hotel's good facilities, the service is very humane. The front desk and restaurant staff are very friendly, and there is exclusive service for gold members, welcome biscuits and hot cocoa the whole atmosphere is very warm. The breakfast buffet and steakhouse are famous, and I myself think the breakfast is really worth trying! In addition, the hotel offers various activities every day, such as historical tours, bike tours, and cocktail classes.

Impressions: Living there really feels like a “dialogue” with the environment and history, no matter the rain or the sun is just as happy. The surrounding views are attractive, photographed all can be used as wallpaper. The facilities are clean and complete, the bedding is particularly comfortable, and the pool is a must-try. It is very close to downtown Banff, making it a safe walk back to the hotel at night or in the rain. At the hot spring hotel, be sure to book a night to enjoy slowly, you will not regret!

Trip tips: If you plan to stay during the peak season (June-September or Christmas and New Year), it is recommended to book a room or two in advance; Gold membership room types will have a better experience, but basic room types are good. The city supports walking tours, bicycles are available for loan at the hotel front desk, and mountain attractions recommend arranging transportation or attending hotel activities.
