The resort features 181 rooms,[1] a spa, banquet facilities, a rooftop indoor/outdoor mineral pool, and is connected to Casino Moose Jaw.

The springs waters originate from an ancient sea bed[2] 1,350 metres (4,430 ft) below the surface.

[3] The hotel was originally built with 69 rooms at cost of $9 million; funds were a mixture of private and government investment.

It is named after the historic Temple Gardens Dance Hall, one block north.

[5] On May 30, 1997, the final episode of CBC Radio's morning show Morningside was broadcast from Temple Gardens; host Peter Gzowski was a former editor of the Moose Jaw Times-Herald.
