    great amenities

    The room was spacious! I loved that it had these fantastic double curtains and lights under the bed which created an awesome vibe in the evenings. The unique Dorothy mug was a nice touch that I didn’t expect.

    It wasn’t exactly a bargain, but worth it for what I got.

    comfy bed
    loud heating system

    The showers were modern and well-maintained, but

    the heating system left much to be desired. While the bed was comfy and the bathroom spacious, I struggled with fluctuating temperatures at night. It’s a shame because the motel has so much potential, with its clean rooms and great location near A&W.

    cozy room
    family-friendly location
    low shower pressure

    We enjoyed our time at this motel while taking in Banff's beautiful scenery. The kids loved visiting the Upper Hot Springs nearby, and the cozy room was perfect for our large family. Plus, the motel's location was handy, making it easy for everyone to explore.

    My wife says that the shower pressure really needs to improve.

    Spacious rooms with lovely camping decor. loved the quiet evenings and the nearby A&W for convenience. The mugs were a fun bonus too.

    modern decor
    spacious room
    free bus pass
    inadequate shower

    my stay at dorothy motel exceeded expectations during this short break. the cheerful, modern decor made our room feel spacious and inviting. the included bus pass made it easy to explore downtown banff without any hassle.

    shower pressure was inadequate and frustrating.

    bus pass

    Just a prime choice for a walk in the evening in Banff with reasonable price. The bus pass included in the stay made it easy to avoid a long walk downtown. Make sure to check if the room fixtures are secure before settling in.

    clean modern
    thoughtful details
    lack of staff
    inconvenient check-in
    no breakfast

    The room was exceptionally clean and modern, with thoughtful details such as a microwave and kettle for convenience. However, the absence of on-site staff led to difficulties, particularly during check-in and checkout, which were both inconvenient. Additionally, there was no complimentary breakfast offered, requiring a drive to another location. For the price, the lack of services felt unbalanced.

    heated bathroom floors
    free transport passes
    noisy housekeeping

    I loved my stay here! The free transport passes were a major plus, and the heated bathroom floors made my mornings so cozy. Just a bit noisy with housekeeping nearby.

    affordable accommodation
    friendly staff

    the dorothy motel is a fair place to stay, with plenty of parking and a good location. it's only a 10-minute walk to downtown shopping. You get a free bus pass to explore more. the staff were super friendly and helped when i left my watch behind. overall, it was a good value for the price!

    cozy bedding
    thoughtful touches
    distant check-in
    absence of on-site staff
    lack of breakfast

    Impeccably clean and comfortable, the room had thoughtful touches like locally made bath products and cozy bedding. The nice courtyard served as a perfect evening retreat, and the free transport pass made exploring the area a breeze. However, checking in at a distant location was a hassle, and the absence of on-site staff led to some confusion during arrival. Additionally, the absence of breakfast options felt lacking for the given price.
