Beautiful view of the Kicking Horse River right out front! It’s only a 15-20 minute walk to downtown (or 3-5 minute drive); close enough to make it convenient but not so close that you hear downtown noise. The room itself was so great for our family of 4! Our kids loved the bunk beds, and we really appreciated multiple extra fans in the upstairs loft to keep the kids cool during the end of August heat wave. Highly recommend!

Views were amazing from the lodge. Staff were freindly and rooms were clean. There was a nice sitting area by the fireplace in the lobby. They also had a complimentary coffee/tea station and instant oatmeal, which was nice. Only 4/5 just due to the building being a bit older and not well insulated between rooms so could definitely hear neighbors and rooms upstairs if you were on the first floor.
It`s a nice little hotel with super friendly staff. Especially the receptionist was amazing. He gave us pretty helpful tips and informations about what to do in the area and he also took the time to show us everything on different maps. If we will come back at any time in the future we would def. stay here again.
Enjoyed my stay here very much. The staff was very friendly. The room was exactly what I needed for exploring Yoho and Glacier National Parks. The complimentary oatmeal and tea was perfect before heading out in the mornings. The best part was this area did not have the crowds of the more popular areas, but there was still plenty to do.
Bunk beds were ok, a bit small for 4 adults n 2 kids
The staff were nice
A couple of items when catering to family with young kids
Larger table an d couple more chairs

It’s a good stay but, like other reviewers note, the rooms aren’t very insulated from each other for sound. As a result it’s luck of the drawer on whether you have a peaceful stay or not. We could hear noise from other rooms clearly early in the evening but thankfully everyone respected the designated quiet hours. It wouldn’t put me off staying again but best to manage your expectations in this regard.
Beautiful Lobby- Lodge like :) Nice tea & coffee area. Easy parking , smaller hotel . Nice views.
Only improvement would be that the walls are thin - heard our loud talking neighbors.
Beautiful site and building...but lack in finish...great furnishings but a ill fitted shower curtain instead of door on shower ,ac sitting on a chair with exaust taped to window..no working phones in rooms...said there a hot tub but not even one on premises. Curfew not respected...all that fo
r twice the price of comparable stays ive been in! Needs work and/better price...not a family spot but good for couple.Staff are very friendly
