What guests think

King Edward Hotel draws praise for its unbeatable downtown Banff location and walkability to shops and restaurants, but reviews frequently note trade-offs like small, dated rooms, street and late-night noise, challenging parking access, and a lack of air conditioning.

Rooms are generally clean, though some guests reported worn linens, maintenance issues, or inconsistent mattress comfort. Staff are often described as friendly and helpful, but reception coverage and assistance can be limited, especially during check-in or with luggage. Overall, expect a basic stay prioritizing central convenience over amenities and quiet.

Be warned that this area is under construction and it makes dropping your luggage off and getting to this hotel a bit of a nightmare. The location is great BUT what is about the only good thing about this hotel. Very uncomfortable beds and I can sleep on just about everything. Front desk staff do not help you with your luggage which is normally not a problem for me but with the current condition of check in it would be very helpful. For the money you pay for this place I would hope for a bit better. Cannot beat the location if the rest are not important to you but also consider construction noise if you like to sleep in which we did not so no problem for us.

Hotel has an excellent location but unfortunately they are tearing up the street outside the front door which makes it very inconvenient to get from the garage to the front door. Room was clean but street noise made opening the windows at night (no A/C) impractical so room was a little warm.

No parking and the staff at front desk instructed me to park at bear street parking (not bear st parkade) and google maps took me to bear street parking lot he also failed to inform us it is pay parking so operating under the poor assumption it was free to hotel patrons i never gave it a second thought and ended up with a ticket

Pro: Hotel is in great location, right in the center of town. Cons: Hotel does not have on-site parking, parking garage (need key access) is two blocks away and since the main street is closed, there is no street parking in front so bringing in luggage is a struggle. Staff does help when needed. Also there is no AC in the building, my room was over 30C (about 90F) both nights.

Location is great as it right on Banff avenue and you can walk to all the places, however you have to park in the adjacent garage as hotel doesn’t have any parking. Rating it as 3 because the towel in the bathroom was worn and torn. I have been traveling for 30 years and have never seen this thing in any of the hotels even the cheaper ones.

Unfortunately, due to street construction, the parking lot was a challenge to get to and from. More of a concern was the unexpected noise from the street, until 3 AM. Nothing the hotel can do about that, but it did make for short nights of sleep. Otherwise, the folks at reception were great and it was a very nice, usable room, in a location convenient to almost everything in town.

The room was clean and tidy and perfect for the price. No breakfast included, but all restaurants, coffee shop and shopping closeby. It was quiet except the room doors are very noisy when they fall shut and the hotel started cleaning up the rooms fairly early the next morning, so it was loud in the hallway. Maybe

Room was clean, staff was friendly, good location. It was fine for one night but the bed was not very comfortable. Bedding was very low quality, especially the pillows which were also too small/weird size for a queen bed. Guests should also note that the street where the loading zone for check in would be, is closed to vehicles in the summer months.

Great location in downtown Banff. It was appreciated they put us in a room closest to the elevator since we were travelling with our dog. The food dish and dog bed provided were a nice touch. While the building is quite old it was a pleasant surprise to see the room updated and very clean.

No parking without walking with baggage through town so be prepared for that as well as loud noise all through the night well after 2am. Windows must be open due to no air conditioning. Definitely bring your ear plugs. They did have a small fan for air circulation. Ceiling light came on multiple times all through the night for some reason. The ceiling fan has a remote control light. Had to end up unscrewing the bulbs so it would stop. Not a great nights sleep at all

Gothic style from the outside but full Interior is dated, ceiling fan and heater not working, we only use table top fan for 2 days, incomplete bathroom/washroom miscellaneous like hair dryer as well as small considering top spots for tourist looks like require some facelift. The room too small for our group and dark ambience however Yogit was so nice to accommodate our booking request for an additional folding bed and towels. Daily rate value is not worth since there was no breakfast available only coffee station inside your room. Since they have no front desk on site for 24 hrs you have to prepare returnable cash deposits for main entrance door key to be able to enter after 12 midnight and another deposit for closed parking door ($110). Pros, it was located in the heart of Banff Avenue, steps from all amenities, attractions and shops, secured and covered parking space. In my opinion, for its price you can find better and newer option within surrounding areas and recommend to book several months ahead of your trip.

We stayed here one night and I have to say it was a very small room but we had a comfy king bed a nice bathroom, tv, fireplace on the wall and we were happy with it . It was very clean & smelled nice & fresh the room was a little hot so we opened the window for an hour . Very quiet nights sleep except for the trains every few hrs with there horns sounding off . We will stay here again price was cheap and it was very convenient, parking was free and only yards around the corner in the parkade . Staff were friendly and helpful. You won’t be disappointed on this hotel if you’re looking for just a comfy clean room as there’s no pool. There are plenty of restaurants to choose from close by .

It was really hot on that day so I end up opening the windows all night good thing that our room is in 3rd floor it's okay to sleep with window open because it's not really noisy. When it comes to dining, there are a lot of restaurant nearby so we didn't have problems on choosing where and when to eat. Overall the location is really convenient.
