I've always liked that Canmore hotel too. It's fine if you don't like the Foothills one (not like its my favorite either), but hating the color combo just seems a bit odd since the yellows aren't that dissimilar to me...maybe slightly more red tint in one. But if you think the yellow will look back because of grime on one, it will look bad on the other too. My biggest peeve with the Foothills building is not the yellow, but the fact that the blue window portion on the west side doesn't really match the vibe of the rest of the building.

But whatever, there are way worse architectural atrocities in this town. This is the epitome of the trend I absolutely hate:

Spoiler!

Imagine showing that in your design portfolio.
