The Inn is surrounded by beauty, great staff. However we could have had a bigger stock of toilet paper in the room we had to buy more when it was after hours. Also no microwave in the room but that was probably something I missed when booking! I also wish I could have gotten the room darker, the windows let in a lot of light and my baby couldn’t sleep. Beautiful scenery. Overall good stay

A bit older building, expected for the price. It was quite hot inside the unit, and we had the heat at 10c. With an open window, in February. Not sure why it was so hot. Acceptable for the price and location is fantastic.

It’s an older building with some excellent renovations, at least in our space. Everything from the bed, TV, shower, worked very well. The checkin was smooth and the receptionist warm, friendly and efficient. The location is hard to beat if you like to walk to dining and coffee. Lots of options an easy 5-10’ stroll away. We would definitely stay again.

Rooms are very run down. For a hotel in Canmore, this place should be updated/renovated for the amount you pay. ($260/night - this is a $99 truck stop at best) Not insulated for sound well at all, you can hear everything going on in the rooms beside and above. Lots of people coming and going until early in the morning. Wont be staying here again. Would not recommend.
