Banff Ptarmigan Inn

8/10 Good

"There was no pool. The hot tubs were decent. It was a nice stay but I would not classify it as family-friendly. The staff were kind but there was miss communication with the timing of the city bus and we ended up almost being late for our concert and ended up having to pay $16 for a 5 minute cab ride."
