My family and I had a wonderful stay at The Fox. The two-bedroom suite layout was perfect for us, and we enjoyed the clean and spacious rooms. The hot tub was a standout attraction after a day on the slopes. However, breakfast was hit or miss, and I wish there had been a bit more variety. Overall, it was a great experience with convenient amenities and a family-friendly atmosphere.

6.6/10

Overall, my stay at this hotel was slightly underwhelming. While the staff were warm and friendly, and the complimentary breakfast was adequate, I felt the rooms were in need of some TLC. The location was decent, although getting to the main shopping area required a bit of a walk. The parking situation left much to be desired, especially since it filled up quickly. I would say it's a mixed experience, balancing comfort with some notable drawbacks.

Rooms

The rooms were decent but felt basic and could use some upkeep. While they had air conditioning, the noise from the cleaning carts in the morning woke me up early.

Service

Location

The hotel was on a main road, a reasonable walk away from the main shopping area in Banff, which was a bit of a trek but manageable. The bus service provided was helpful, and tickets were complimentary.

Dining

The breakfast was complimentary and more than adequate, but be ready to compete a bit for the waffle makers. The one evening meal we had was substantial and did the job.

Facilities

6.0

Facilities were decent, with a nice pool area and access to parking, but the limited parking options were a significant downside.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The room was spacious but lacked AC, and the location offered easy access to downtown, though I felt the parking situation was misleading. The hot tub was a definite highlight, but I encountered significant issues with the front desk service. Overall, while the facilities showed some promise, I would suggest looking elsewhere if you expect reliable amenities.

Rooms

The room was spacious but lacked air conditioning, making it uncomfortably warm. It was also located directly over the garage, which echoed noise from the street.

The front desk service was frustrating, with staff appearing annoyed to help. Check-in and check-out were quick, but the general attitude left much to be desired.

Location

The location was great as it was only a 10-minute walk to downtown, making it convenient to explore the area while still being quiet.

We had a lovely two-night stay at this hotel, enjoying the spacious room with a kitchenette and a cozy balcony, perfect for winter views. While there was a bit of a wait at check-in due to staffing issues, the staff were welcoming and accommodating. The heated parking garage was definitely a bonus! However, the elevator situation might be challenging during peak times, and the cold weather led to some lock issues. Overall, it was a comfortable stay, though improvements could be made in handling check-ins more efficiently.

The Fox Inn is a solid choice for a stay in Banff, with comfortable rooms offering stunning views of the Rocky Mountains and a relaxing heated pool perfect for unwinding after a busy day. However, while the staff was helpful, the breakfast coffee left much to be desired, and parking can be a bit cramped for larger vehicles. Overall, I would recommend this place for its value and amenities.
