This hotel is a perfectly good 3 Star property (not the 4 Star it is rated in many places).
It is located in the middle of Banff's hotel strip (Banff Ave) - less than a 10 minute walk from downtown.
You almost can't go wrong with location in Banff - most hotels are on Banff Ave within walking range of downtown. The higher end hotels are a little further out, but taxis in Banff are plentiful and parking downtown is free.
The hotel is clean and well maintained. There is nothing special about the hotel, but there is nothing wrong with it either. The decor is less hotel, more stuffy traditional house with a few oddities - the bathroom had two sinks, one a pedestal, the other in a counter on the opposite side of the room, and the closet was in the bathroom?
Parking is available - self and valet parking are both $12 a day - but I was warned by the valet to have the car parked by 10 pm, otherwise there may not be room.

Dear Guest; Your comments regarding your recent stay are very appreciated as you have provided some useful constructive criticism. As you did not feel as though we meet the 4 Star standards which we daily operate as, I am interested to know what qualities you found to be of fewer standards. Our concierge will ensure your vehicle is safely parked in our underground garage should you choose to take advantage of our valet parking. Thank you for taking a great opportunity to review our amenities which I hope future travelers will use to learn more about their stay at our hotel.
Thank you for choosing Delta Hotels and the Delta Banff Royal Canadian Lodge
Sincerely,
Liisa Acheson
Guest Experience Specialist
