Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel
A grand Rocky Mountain castle
VERIFIED LUXURY
We verify luxury. Our highly trained inspectors visit every property we rate, evaluating based on up to 900 objective criteria. Our hotel stays span a minimum of two nights.
We pay our own way. No one can buy a rating; all ratings are earned through our objective inspection process.
Our global team of inspectors are anonymous at all times, so they have the same experience as a typical guest.
While we inspect both service and facility, our Star Rating system emphasizes service because your experience goes beyond how your surroundings look — how your visit makes you feel is what you will remember most.
We started in 1958 as Mobil Travel Guide, and we created the original Five-Star rating system for hospitality.
Five-Star
These are outstanding, often iconic properties with virtually flawless service and amazing facilities.
Four-Star
These are exceptional properties, offering high levels of service and quality of facility to match.

Located about an hour and a half from Calgary, Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel stands in stark and beautiful contrast to other modern and urban getaways. Built in the style of a Scottish castle, the hotel’s stone façade and pointed turrets provide a stately outline against the breathtaking natural beauty of the area — the Canadian Rockies and Spray and Bow Valleys.
Given the location’s nature-filled surroundings, it’s no wonder that the hotel boasts outdoor activities for every season. From cross-country skiing, dogsledding, ice fishing and more in the winter to canoeing, tennis, golf and more during the warmer spring and summer months, the stunning landscape is taken full advantage of.
There’s also the full-service
Fairmont Spa at Fairmont Banff Springs where you can sink into serenity after a strenuous hike by indulging in a Sports Massage, rejuvenating your skin with the floral-focused Rose Renewal treatment or simply unwinding with a soak in the beautiful mineral pool.
