Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
These cabins are dated, small, and very overpriced for what is included. The cabin was not clean with cobwebs on the ceilings and crumbs in the couch cushion inside the cabin. The cabin only had two electrical outlets in inconvenient spots, no hair dryer, no refrigerator, nor a coffeemaker. Breakfast in the morning from the main lodge included one stale pasty of your choice and a coffee/tea. They do have a small selection of snacks and other items for sale. Additionally, when we checked out by turning in our cabin key we got nothing more than a thank you before the young front desk representative went back to texting on her phone. No questions about how our stay was or anything else. Would not stay here again and would not recommend it.

This was one of the best vacations I had in a long time. The staff was wonderful and super helpful with anything that we needed. The food was the most amazing I’ve ever had and super fresh. I hope I get the opportunity to stay again. I’ll definitely recommend to all my friends.

More plant-based options please :-)

My twin sister and I are vegan (no animals or by products). I loved that there was a vegan pastry option available for us in the mornings. I can't recall seeing a nondairy option for milk, and if that wasn't there, I would suggest that as an option. I would also love to see the menu be more eco-friendly. The amount of meat on the menu has quite a large carbon footprint and it feels out of line with the off the grid approach Storm is using. I will say that we were extremely grateful that the chef went out of their way to not only accommodate a late request for dinner, but that they also found a way to make one of their options completely vegan for us and add delicious potatoes, and a salad to the meal.

We absolutely loved our stay at Storm Mountain Lodge. Our cabin was cozy and comfortable, and they provided kindling to have a fire in the fireplace. The lodge was cozy and charming, and our two dinners at the restaurant were both fantastic. I would return again in a heartbeat. The lodge was also a great location between Banff and Lake Louise, with nearby hiking also available.

Breakfast is one croissant per person as their complementary, bath towels are small, no hair dryer so bring your own. I book the place as I thought it close to moraine lake but it’s not 11km away as it’s says in website it’s more close radium hot spring. Nothing special.

We loved the quiet cozy nature of this property and our cabin. It isn't "frilly" but we had everything we needed and the staff was amazing. I only wish the office opened one hour earlier so we could grab tea/coffee on our early morning hiking excursions.

The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, but the thing that makes Storm Mountain Lodge Cabins noteworthy is its gourmet chef--there is no place in the Lake Louise area that can equal the wonderful creations that come out of that chef's kitchen. One of the best decisions we made was to make dinner reservations there every evening of our stay, a great way to end the day!
