The location is great. Everything is close to the hotel. Staffs are nice. The cleanness needs to improve. The carpet needs to do some deep clean as well as the sofa.

Nice place to stop for a couple of nights. Only negative feedback was the dryers didn’t seem to have a delicate setting (it did but didn’t work) so our clothes were cooked.

Our family of four stayed in a renovated room with a king bed and bunk beds. Our kids were very excited to sleep in the bunk beds. The room was very spacious and clean. There was a kitchenette with a Keurig coffee machine, an electric kettle, microwave, and a fridge. The hotel is very close to the village of Lake Louise. There are multiple restaurant options, gift shops, and a supermarket. The hot tub was very relaxing. The breakfast room is a bit run down as this hotel is pretty old but the food is decent. It’s great to have breakfast included. The restaurant staff very friendly. It’s not a luxury hotel but it has everything you need. Great location for visiting Lake Louise and Moraine Lake. Highly recommended.

Will be back...

I had a wonderful stay here! Between the convenient location to the park bus shuttles, a grocery market, the visitor's center, then a hot breakfast each morning, steam room, and hot tub it was well worth the price. Please note that the main building I stayed in did not have an elevator so you may want to confirm your floor if you have mobility issues.

In general it was pleasant experience but the breakfast was disappointing. We were waiting for clean plates and in overall, considering the price, the food selection was quite limited
