What guests think
Across recent reviews, The Kenrick Hotel stands out for its walkable location and standout hydrotherapy pool area, while guests consistently praise friendly staff and modern rooms, though small bathrooms, occasional noise, and tight parking appear as recurring drawbacks.
Many guests highlight the sauna, steam room, hot tubs, and cold plunge, with some appreciating adult-only hours. Rooms are generally comfortable and stylish, with mountain views or balconies in some, but lighting and sink layout can frustrate. A few reviews mention construction or restaurant closures at times, and dining feedback varies. Expect a modern, wellness-focused stay near downtown Banff.

Facilities
The hydrotherapy area (sauna, steam room, hot tubs, cold plunge) is a major highlight; some appreciated adult-only hours. Underground parking is useful but limited, tight, and low clearance; a few noted the main pool could feel cold or access impacted by construction.

Really enjoyed our stay!! Loved the beds in our room we can try using the pool, hot tub, sauna and steam room. My son even tried the cold plunge! The staff are very friendly and always asking how you are doing and if you need anything. Great location as we walked everywhere downtown.

Rooms are clean and very spacious with great decor and finishes. Love the hydrotherapy amenities and appreciated the adult hours between10pm-midnight. Hotel was very close walking distance to the main strip in Banff. Staff was very friendly and helpful. May become my main choice for hotel stays when heading to Banff!

Pool was so cold it was unusable. Staff received complaints from many guests and was apathetic. There are better accommodations elsewhere for cheaper. If the pool is the reason you are booking look into The Crimson.

First of all, how is this not the highest rated hotel in Banff? At the price point, this place is incredible. I understand if you like a dusty old chalet style lodge, but that’s not for everyone. Staff were incredible and accommodating, underground parking included, everything was meticulously clean, and no detail was spared in the cohesive aesthetic of this amazing location. The hydrotherapy area was top notch, rivaling many paid spa experiences elsewhere. I will recommend to friends, and I will be back for sure!

Overall a good stay. Some of the front of house staff weren’t super friendly, others were great! It almost seemed as though they were annoyed that we were staying there. Pool facilities were fantastic though. Would definitely stay again just for the pool. The entire family enjoyed it. The bathrooms are tiny and I am a small person. I’m sure the larger rooms, may have bigger bathrooms but I could barely get in without hitting the shower door, I’m 5’1 and petite. Even my kiddos found it tiny. The bar area didn’t have any overhead lighting, which could have been useful in the evening. A table or a desk in the room would have also been a nice touch. This would allow a place for a laptop or to dine in. Again, the larger suites seem to have this. Other standard rooms at other establishments have had at least one or the other. There were also no hooks or a hand towel rail to place a hand towel for drying at the sink area. Just a few of these little touches would have been nice. Overall the design is good and the beds are comfortable. Underground parking is quite low. They also do not have EV chargers. But there was enough parking that we found a spot. Oversized vehicles had to park outside.

We enjoyed how quiet the hotel was considering it was fully booked during the time of our stay. The hallways, lobby, pool area were always very quiet. We traveled with our 11 month old and so the pool and sound machine in the room were great! We will stay here again in the future. The room felt clean and fresh, although the pool floors felt dirty. It was like people were walking in with their outside dirty shoes. Overall a wonderful stay! A new hidden gem in Banff.

More of a motel. Our reservation was for four people yet we had 3 towels and 3 washcloths. The room was wiped down in the obvious areas but there were spiderwebs in the windows, lots of old dust near and behind the dresser. Would not stay again.

The Kenrick reopened in June 2025, after extensive renovations. The rooms are very comfortable and beautifully designed. Our only issue with the room was the lack of places to hang a wet towel at the sink, easily resolved with a small rack. The sink is set outside the shower/toilet area, basically in the bedroom, next to the front door. I don't like these set-ups, because if your partner is sleeping, you can't easily use the sink without making noise and turning on a light. That brings up the subject of lighting. The room has nice, but very soft ambient lighting. The light over the sink needs to be much brighter. I found it very hard to put on makeup! Overall, we had a great stay. The staff couldn't have been friendlier. The new pool has showers, two hot tubs and two saunas. There are changing rooms and comfortable places to Lounge. Walking to the heart of downtown is 5 minutes, and there's a restaurant attached to the hotel for pretty good meals. There are numerous restaurants within walking distance. If you're not staying at the iconic Banff Springs Hotel, The Kenrick is a great alternative.

We really liked the fact we could walk downtown for shopping and dining. Front desk staff was friendly and helpful. Would stay at the High Country Inn again.

I stated on arrival that I was paying for the 2 rooms as my son just had a birthday and the free room was for that.They billed him for half of my stay (one night) and billed me for all three what a mess still not fixed although on departure told me all fixed.

He even helped us book dinner reservations for the following night. The restaurant next door , The Fat Ox, had delicious food- had GF pasta with elk bolognese sauce!! Sooooo good. Thank you to the staff at The Kenrick!!

Overall the design is good and the beds are comfortable. Underground parking is quite low. They also do not have EV chargers. But there was enough parking that we found a spot. Oversized vehicles had to park outside.

Location
Location is a strong point, within easy walking distance of downtown Banff’s shops and restaurants. Some note street or construction noise at times, but most find it convenient for exploring.

The hotel was right in the heart of Banff so everything was close by. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Very cute boutique hotel. Stylish decor, good water pressure in shower, and great location. We walked into town every day. Had drinks at Fat Ox, great staff.

Rooms are clean and very spacious with great decor and finishes. Love the hydrotherapy amenities and appreciated the adult hours between10pm-midnight. Hotel was very close walking distance to the main strip in Banff. Staff was very friendly and helpful. May become my main choice for hotel stays when heading to Banff!

Dining
An attached restaurant (Fat Ox) is cited positively for food and drinks, but several stays found it closed or missed breakfast service, and one review reported a poor meal. Overall dining feedback is limited and mixed.

The staff was very helpful and accommodating. The water spa was incredible- best facility that I have ever experienced at a hotel. Modern, impeccably clean, all the options you want- pool, sauna, cold plunge, steam room, private cabana area, drink service. Just excellent! Marc J, the Manager, was so welcoming and friendly. He even helped us book dinner reservations for the following night. The restaurant next door , The Fat Ox, had delicious food- had GF pasta with elk bolognese sauce!! Sooooo good. Thank you to the staff at The Kenrick!!

Very large room, with separate bedroom & living area. Friendly & helpful staff. No safe in the room. No dining in the hotel. Washing machines not working. A bit far to walk to downtown. Too many steps to our room, all on the 2nd floor, not the stairs from one floor to the next floor.

Hotel novíssimo, com poucas semanas de uso. Super bem localizado no melhor ponto de Banff. Instalações super confortáveis, modernas e de bom gosto. Dois pontos a melhorar: o chuveiro é ruim (sai pouca água, um sacrifício lavar cabelo longo) e o restaurante indicado pelo hotel (The Fat Ox) é péssimo (me serviram frango cru) e caro. Recomendo muito.

The Kenrick reopened in June 2025, after extensive renovations. The rooms are very comfortable and beautifully designed. Our only issue with the room was the lack of places to hang a wet towel at the sink, easily resolved with a small rack. The sink is set outside the shower/toilet area, basically in the bedroom, next to the front door. I don't like these set-ups, because if your partner is sleeping, you can't easily use the sink without making noise and turning on a light. That brings up the subject of lighting. The room has nice, but very soft ambient lighting. The light over the sink needs to be much brighter. I found it very hard to put on makeup! Overall, we had a great stay. The staff couldn't have been friendlier. The new pool has showers, two hot tubs and two saunas. There are changing rooms and comfortable places to Lounge. Walking to the heart of downtown is 5 minutes, and there's a restaurant attached to the hotel for pretty good meals. There are numerous restaurants within walking distance. If you're not staying at the iconic Banff Springs Hotel, The Kenrick is a great alternative.

The hotel was undergoing a major renovation project, so there was lots of noise and activity throughout the day, but all was quiet during the evening. We missed having a restaurant available for breakfast, buy it wasn’t too far to walk downtown.

We loved everything about this hotel from the lobby to our room … and the jacuzzi hot tub. The Mountain View’s from the room were amazing. The staff gave us text access to connect with any needs and were very responsive. The beds were comfortable, and the room was decorated perfectly. The hotel is in a great location that give you great walk ability to Banff.
