Very convenient location if your trip is focused around more mountain/national park adventures. The hot tub makes for a great experience after a long day in the mountains. Complimentary coffee/tea. Restaurant on the lobby level and a cafe in the next door hotel. Gas station/convenience store across the street. Hotel provides a 3-day bus pass for travel towards downtown Banff.
