The Mount Royal Hotel, located in the heart of Banff, Alberta, has reopened this July to welcome guests back to the historic property, following a devastating fire in December 2016. The 133-room hotel has been restored to its former beauty, seamlessly blending its storied heritage with thoroughly modern amenities and design, with room rates from $229 CAD (£131) per night.

For more than 100 years, the Mount Royal Hotel has been an anchor in Banff's community. Its location on the corner of Banff Avenue and Caribou Street – in the heart of town – makes it an iconic landmark in the town's most premier location.

The newly opened hotel will feature a rooftop lounge with outdoor hot tubs a custom-designed museum plus a hotel library, while the well-appointed and spacious bedrooms showcase outstanding mountain views.

“The reopening of the Mount Royal Hotel will provide a truly unforgettable Banff experience for today's modern traveller, bringing together a thoughtful juxtaposition of rich history and contemporary design,” said Dave McKenna, President, Banff Jasper Collection by Pursuit.  “We look forward to welcoming both the local community and our global guests back to such an incredible Banff landmark and are delighted to re-introduce the Mount Royal Hotel into Pursuit's collection of world-class attractions and exceptional experiences.”
