Banff Ptarmigan Inn, Banff, Canada - Reviews and Hotel Information

We have just returned from a 1 week stay at the Ptarmigan Inn banff, the hotel is perfectly placed to take full advantage of this wonderful town, it is approx 150 metres from the start of the shops and bars, Safeway supermarket is even closer. The ski bus stops outside your door and you have views of the mountains from certain rooms in the hotel, we had a small balcony and although cold to sit on, the view made up for it. The hotel is clean and well run and the staff are friendly and helpful, they have a pretty good restaurant which also serves breakfast, this is a buffet style and we ate there only once, not because it was poor, just a matter of preference and we found a fantastic place for breakfast Melissa's.

There is a bar which has a massive log fire and its great to unwind after a hard day on the slope with a beer and that fire, not long before those lids feel pretty heavy.

There is a fitness room, although small.

You can get a combination lock from reception and use a ski locker (free) which is underneath, I would suggest taking a padlock (small) as the combo lock takes forever to open. There is underground carparking if you drive, I dont know if there is a charge.
The Hotel is clean with rooms made up every day, we have just stayed there again ( March 2008) and although the hotel was clean etc, we had a problem due to water leaking from the room above, I had to ask for towels at 3.30am and mop up the water myself, they did offer us another room for the night and I wish now I'd taken it, as when I mentioned to the Canadian girl on reception the next day, she just didnt want to know, a comlementary meal would have sufficed, instead we left angry. But on the whole its good and a great location.

Perfect location.
