The property is dated and in need of modernising (which can be seen in the photos) but we quite liked the quirkiness of the place!

The property was clean, beds were comfy, kitchen equipped with the basics and everything worked so no complaints. We also had designated parking outside the room. Check in was easy and the staff we lovely. The pool is not really a pool as such, more of a splash pool from the water slides, but the kids loved it and the outside hot tubs were lovely.

The free bus passes included for your stay are great and we used them a lot to get around Banff, It took about 10 mins to get into town and the buses came every 15/20 minutes.

The location is great as it is quiet and the views are amazing - I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

Property is dated. A/C is a mini split that was not very efficient as it was in the corner an blee on the bed while not adequately cooling rest of room. Set it for 19c or higher at night because of air flow and fan on low then 21c when gone. But lat 2 days of stay air ou oft unit was cool not cold. Many dishes were placed on the highest shelf as is the micro wave. Pool attendant was great

Convenient to the bus stop, great restaurant...next door, not on property.
Property was really dated, '70s. Pool closes at 9pm, had to sign a waiver to get to the pool. It did have a great waterslide. Grocery store...permanently closed due to covid. Beer/liquor store...permanently closed due to covid. Laundry facility...permanently closed ...I would hate to stay there a week or.more and not be able to wash clothes....due to covid. 5 years after covid, they're still using this as an excuse? Sauna...closed, out of order. Giant cobwebs behind the entrance door. Not one single USB port in the entire unit. Badly stained ceiling tiles in the bathroom. Many many dings and large cracks on the wooden walls. Very random dishes in the cupboard, coffee pot with no auto shutoff. Tub was relatively new. TV system...remote only controlled on/off and volume. Had to use the \"cable box\" to scroll through channels. Countertop loose in bathroom. Very long list on negatives, very few positives. Would NOT RECOMMEND!

Room was super clean, had a lovely balcony, and the front desk staff were helpful and friendly. The free bus passes were much appreciated and it made travel to downtown super easy. My only suggestion is that the pull-out sofa is desperately in need of a new mattress. My daughter slept on it and it was very thin and uncomfortable. Everything else was great though!

Under ANY circumstance, NEVER STAY HERE. Every aspect of this property was deplorable, the place needs to be bulldozed and the staff deployed to the factory floor, because that is all they are good for. I really can’t be bothered elaborating at how horrendous and outdated the rooms are, but stay here at your peril, in fact don’t even do that just steer clear!!! This hotel should not even be on any booking site it’s that bad!

Our experience at Douglas Fir Resort & Chalets was disappointing.

When we arrived, the front desk told us to come back around 5:00 PM because no rooms were available, even though our room had already been fully paid for in advance. We had just travelled from Toronto to Calgary by flight and then driven from Calgary to Banff with our family, including our one-year-old baby. It was raining, and being asked to leave the hotel and return later after such a long journey was very frustrating.

I explained that we couldn’t simply roam around in the rain with a one-year-old child. Thankfully, another front desk staff member understood our situation and helped us, which we appreciated.

Unfortunately, the initial interaction left us feeling unwelcome. Because my father wears a turban, I couldn’t help but wonder whether we were treated differently. I can’t say for certain that this was the reason, but it is how the experience made us feel, and it was upsetting.

As for the hotel itself, the location is convenient, and the water slides, hot tub, and sauna are great for families. However, the rooms are quite small, some furniture (including the table) was damaged, and the overall cleanliness and maintenance could be improved.

I hope the hotel works on providing a more welcoming and consis

The perfect family friendly resort. The waterslides and play zone exceeded our expectations, our kids had a blast. The chalet style accommodations were perfect for cooking our own meals and having our own space. Things in the room could use maintenance (eg two burners weren't working, dining bench cushions were ripped) but it wasn't anything that hindered our stay. The five minute bus ride into was so easy and the free bus tickets were appreciated. We saw wildlife right outside our rooms. The staff were kind. It's expensive but so is everything in Banff and I think we got great value for our money there.

We had a wonderful stay at Douglas Fir. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Good location with free access to local buses. Great aquacentre. The room is older style but clean and functional, with daily room service. The layout was suitable for our party. We were lucky to have a room with a gorgeous view of the mountain. The bed was comfortable and we all had good sleep during our 4 night stay. It is a good deal in Banff area. We will book it again and highly recommend to others.

Le parc aquatique est super pour la famille. Le genre de chalet/appartement est assez grand pour 6 à 7 personnes, alors à 5 c'était super. Vraiment un super endroit, Juste ajuster l'eau chaude qui reste toujours du sport.

I was very sorry to see that the property was as dark and dismal as when I last stayed there 30 years ago. For the cost? We fought to open the patio door; lite bulbs were out; ice trays cracked; the list goes on...I cannot believe that this property remains fully booked...lack of alternate accommodation appears to be the reason. It would be wonderful if the owners used their proceeds towards brightening up the condo units at least. I did not even shower there before I left, the inside environment was too dark; and I just wished to exit as fast as possible the next morning.

The rooms are totally outdated. The loft was hot as hell. Sugar packet found in bed. It’s like a Motel Six that hasn’t been redone since 1962. Two wall fans are not adequate to cool the place down. Would def never stay here or recommend to anyone.

The unit we stayed in had a sliding door onto a balcony. The curtain covering the sliding glass door was pulled off its sliders and bulging at its center and the balcony was covered in a fine feathery residue. The furniture on the balcony was very dirty and the table had mold growing on it. Those aspects were disappointing.
In the bathroom shower, the faucet handle was very difficult to turn and most of the water was coming out of the tub faucet, not the shower head. I was second to taking a shower in the morning and ran out of hot water after only a few minutes of entering it. Some of the furniture in our unit, was damaged and/or \"well used\".
On a positive note, the tea and coffee service provided in the unit was very good and quite sufficient for our needs. in addition, the indirect light behind a bureau helped tremendously in traversing from the bedroom to the bathroom at night.
Overall it was a comfortable place to stay in providing the space provided and the location of the resort. With a few maintenance issues corrected, it would have rated a 5/5 rating for us.

It was clean, but older. There was no fan in the bathroom.

We had arrived early and were unable to check in as our room wasn’t ready. The woman at the front desk in the afternoon was not very friendly or forthcoming with information.

We left and returned a few hours later to check in and the new shift staff was really friendly and helpful.

The air conditioning was inadequate for the size of the unit and did not cool the loft at all, the location that the unit was placed only blew cool air into the stairwell.

The property is old and dated. We were a party of 10 in three rooms. Every room had issues - A/C leaking from upstairs onto carpet leading down, bathtubs not draining, screen doors not opening properly, patio doors not locking, light fixtures not working, carpet and furniture didn’t look the cleanest. Maintenance person was very helpful when management called him.
On the plus side of things, the kids loved the waterslides. Bus passes into town were great as Banff is insanely busy and nowhere to park. One person at front desk was extremely helpful (forgot to get her name). Some others weren’t helpful at all.

Beautiful quiet setting. About 5 minutes from downtown. Free bus passes provided to get around town.
We arrived to 5 elk on the property.
Staff was unbelievable with accommodating requests. When we arrived there was a noisy family next door, so we asked if we could switch rooms. Despite having already been in our room for a few hours, they found us a new room with no neighbours. We needed a fork and housekeeping was there within minutes. Our TV wasn't working and maintenance came and replaced box within minutes as well.
It was a phenomenal stay. Would definitely stay here again.

The pool has 2 amazing slides, 2 hot tubs, one outside. You do have to be over 18 years to go in by yourself. Overall a great place to stay!

The place itself maybe be slightly dates, but for us it was a rustic nature feel and we had everything we needed. Staff were friendly throughout stay. We didn’t use many facilities in the hotel as we had so much to see in the national park, but it was a really good base.

The property is in desperate need of maintenance and update on interior furnishings. The unit was clean and beds were comfortable.
The microwave malfunctioned and sparked with a cup of coffee only in it. The table had a chunk out of it. The bench upholstery was torn. The bar stools were marked and upholstery torn. The blackout curtain had a rip in it. The dresser was missing a drawer front.
Overall it’s a comfortable place to stay but the interior doesn’t match the rates charged.
Like that parking is included with assigned spot next to your room.

It's rustic (dated) but you can't beat having a private cabin where everyone gets their own bed (loft for kids), a kitchen to save $$ on breakfast, a waterpark, and right next to the Roam bus route (with free passes for it). Add in it abuts trails leading to the Hoodoos and a winner.

Pros:
Pool and waterslides were amazing ! We had so much fun. Kids play zone was also a ton of fun, kids really enjoyed it !
Well stocked kitchen (plates, cutlery, bowls) in our room was great for meals in.
Amazing quiet location, beautiful views of the mountains, walking trails right out the door. We watched Elk pass from the patio.
Staff were great!

Con’s:
This place DESPERATELY needs a deep clean and updating/ maintenance. You could tell the surfaces were wiped, it was Vacuumed and bedding changed. But the carpet edges were visibly dirty, carpets and couch stained, couch edges torn up dust and grime on furnace intake / blow dryer and windows, dirty in the nooks and crannies. Cracked and mouldy ceiling tiles in bathroom, broken vent covers and pieces pulling off the walls.

We loved so much about it, but was really put off by the lack of cleanliness ! Price still felt high considering the state of the room.

We had a really good stay at the Douglas Fir the first week of June! We stayed in one of the apartments in a fourplex and our backyard view was the forest with daily wildlife! We saw many elk and their babies and on the last night we heard and watched 3 coyotes run through! The location was perfect for downtown Banff and the free bus passes anywhere in Banff (routes 1,2 and 6) were a nice surprise! You get a full kitchen in these units and our favourite part was the wood fire that we enjoyed each evening! Staff were very friendly and super helpful when needed! I’d definitely stay there again if we return to Banff.

The check-in process was very smooth, and the receptionist was friendly, professional, and helpful throughout the entire process.

Unfortunately, the room itself was disappointing. The property feels very old, and our room had a strong musty, moldy smell. The furniture was worn out and no longer looked presentable. The room was also quite dark, and even the bedding appeared old and unclean.

In all honesty, the room did not feel clean, and the moldy odor was concerning. I would recommend bringing your own bedsheets and essentials if you decide to stay here. While the staff provided good service, the condition and cleanliness of the room need a total improvement. If you can find another place to stay, it would be much better.

Indoor hot tub was great after long days of hiking. Room wasn’t over the top but had everything you need including full size fridge, oven, microwave range and toaster. Cleaning staff was excellent. Large balcony you share with other units separated by a privacy wall. Parking is convenient and make sure you get your complimentary bus pass as parking downtown is either paid or hard to come by. Buses every 20 minutes or so and only 2 stops to get downtown. About 7-10 minutes.
