Tranquil Location - The Fairmont Banff Springs is located in the Banff National Park. This ‘Castle in the Rockies’ sits just above the centre of Banff, nestling in a tranquil setting of mountains and forests, overlooking the Bow River.
Free Shuttle Service - The free hotel shuttles take guests to and from the town centre (approximately 5 minute drive) and the free ski bus picks up from the hotel.
HistoricLuxury - In 1888 the Fairmont Banff Springs was opened and is said to be the birthplace of tourism in the Canadian Rockies. Built in the style of a Scottish Baronial Castle, it is still a landmark building. The quality and range of services on offer are astounding: it's practically a resort in itself.
Excellent Facilities - The awe inspiring scenery can be admired from every corner of the hotel including the outdoor pool and hot tubs and is rivaled only by the experiences in the hotel’s very own Willow Stream Spa. There is an array of shopping on offer including gift shops and galleries featuring exclusive Canadian artists.
Dining Options - The hotel also boasts 8 different restaurants, bars and lounges to enjoy breakfast, lunch and dinner.
From the 764 Guestrooms and Suites on offer, there is a vast range of accommodation options, from Fairmont and Deluxe rooms to Junior and Executive 1 and 2 bedroom suites. All rooms feature the kinds of facilities one would expect and offer a variety of stunning views. For those people looking for a more boutique Fairmont experience, the Fairmont Gold service offers a more personalised service and some welcome extras including private check-in, deluxe breakfast and après-ski appetizers.
