Description
Description
Standing north of Bow River Falls like an
amazing Scottish baronial fortress, the Banff Springs is one of the
most beautiful and famous hotels in North America. Founded in 1888
as an opulent destination resort by the Canadian Pacific Railroad,
this stone castle of a hotel is still the best address in Banff.
Expect sumptuous linens, fancy soaps and lotions, real art, and
quality furniture. This venerable hotel doesn't offer the largest
rooms in Banff, but the amenities are superlative. With the views,
the spa, the history, and the near pageantry of service (the
Springs maintains a staff of 1,200), this is an amazing testament
to luxury. Is it worth the money? Perhaps, if you're looking for a
totally unique experience in historic lodging -- but there is far
better value, even at the top end, at other Banff
lodgings.
Facilities: 15 restaurants; 3 lounges;
Olympic-size pool; the famed Banff Springs golf course (considered
one of the most scenic in the world); 4 tennis courts; the
European-style Solace Spa, with mineral baths, a full range of
beauty and health treatments, plus fitness training, nutritional
consultation, and lifestyle programs; Jacuzzi; bike rental;
concierge; tour and activities desk; business center; shopping
arcade; 24-hr. room service; babysitting; laundry service; same-day
dry cleaning.
