The 1st night there, someone was having a party next door and kept blowing an air horn (right next to our window). Security eventually came to quiet things down (after a few hours) and when we complained to the front desk, they offered to comp us breakfast the next morning. Imagine our surprise to find breakfast on our bill when... More

While the accommodation was pretty basic it was what I expected at the price and the location is great. The bathroom was clean but the carpets needed a very serious vacuum. My major complaint is that for 3 nights in a row the noise from rowdy groups prevented any sleep. Other reviews suggest this has been an ongoing concern but... More

The Driftwood Inn is on Banff Avenue right in downtown Banff. Considering a dorm in a hostel is close to $40CAD we are staying in a room with two double beds with private bathroom with tub and shower for $99CAD. It seems the Ptarmigan group is taking over a range of hotels in the area, and the check in is... More

Value for money was fantastic (I was staying in off season). The rooms were a bit out dated but were still in good condition, pleasant enough and a very good size. Location was great and use of the spa pool next door was an added bonus. More

My friend and I stayed here for the second time in two years for the Rocky Mountain Wine and Food Festival. We have never had any problems. For how much you stay in your hotel while traveling it does the trick. More

The Driftwood is a basic value budget hotel. Very basic decor but for the price it is great. There are three hotels on the same property and the ameneties are located in the main hotel which is the Ptarmigan Inn. Yes, the Driftwood could use some upgrading, however, the price will no doubt also go up to reflect any improvements.... More

Good location and a keen price for basic but adequate and clean accommodation. Only issue is noise, from the corridor, outside the window and also the horn of a train passing through. Take ear plugs if you're a light sleeper like me. More

Stayed at the Driftwood Hotel after booking via Crystal Ski Holidays on the 16th March 2011. Despite looking at previous reviews which overall did not seem too bad we thought the hotel would be OK for our needs as we would only be sleeping in the room, (or so we thought)? On arrival we collect the key from the Ptarmigan... More

Stayed here 2 times in 1 week for business. the first stay- 1 night, was , a reasonable experience. It was cheap, not loud in the hotel ( but it was Aussie day & the noise was outside the hotel), beds where nice & the room was big enough. My second stay was for from pleasant. I was given a... More
