Nothing unique. Parking exit was not working. Needed to manually open and exit through the entrance. As we were only 2 pods of coffee for 2 people we asked for more and were promptly delivered another 2 , no more. Didn’t use hot tub. The rate for room and parking were on par with other Banff hotels but felt the quality was not.
