Mountain view Hotels in Canmore

"Banff is just too expensive. The town of Canmore, right outside the park gates, is a great alternative. It's only a 30-minute drive to Banff townsite, and it also boasts snowy mountains and some good restaurants. This motel-style hotel, though a bit dated, is still a solid choice. Its excellent value for money is the main selling point."

"The room was great. The whole experience makes us felt like home, and we could definitely want to stay there for a long time if we can. The best place for families for sure. The amenities were great, and the one bedroom even have two toilets. Because I booked through trip.com, somehow the hotel has issues with my payment/authorisation. But, they have definitely communicated with me very promptly prior to the visit and everything went well. Highly recommend!!!"

"My wife and I traveled to Banff National Park and chose ”Rundle Chalets” in Canmore for our stay. We had a very pleasant experience staying there. Convenient location, friendly and helpful staff, small but comfortable cabin with everything you need for a traveler, and all this in the midst of incredibly beautiful mountain scenery."

"I had a great stay in Canmore. The hotel was clean, comfortable, and surrounded by beautiful mountain views. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the location was perfect for exploring the area. I would definitely stay here again on my next trip to the Rockies."

"I recently stayed at the Canmore Inn & Suites on Bow Valley Trail. While the property itself has potential and offers a convenient base for exploring the Rockies, my experience was significantly dampened by a factor I wasn't prepared for: a major local hockey tournament. The ”Tournament” Factor I was unaware upon booking that my stay coincided with a Canmore hockey tournament for U11 and U13 divisions. To say these teams ”took over the hotel” would be an understatement. The volume of children was overwhelming. This translated to: The Pool Area: Practically unusable for other guests; it was packed to capacity with kids from morning until night. Common Areas: Hallways and the lobby were very loud and, at times, felt uncontrollable. Lack of Supervision: There was a noticeable lack of adult/parental supervision in the public spaces, leading to a chaotic atmosphere that isn't ideal if you're looking for a relaxing mountain getaway. Staff and Noise Management To the hotel’s credit, the noise did mostly settle down by 10:30 PM. I spoke with the front desk, and they mentioned we could issue formal noise complaints if needed. However, it felt like a losing battle given the sheer volume of groups. The staff are clearly used to this, as these local tournaments bring in consistent bookings for the hotel. While the team was polite, they seemed stretched thin by the high occupancy and the energy of the young athletes. The Room and Amenities Pros: The location is excellent—close to downtown and Highway 1. The rooms are generally spacious, and the mountain views from the upper floors are a highlight. Cons: The property is showing its age. Some fixtures felt dated, and the cleanliness in the high-traffic common areas suffered due to the heavy foot traffic during the tournament. Final Verdict The simpler solution here is a matter of timing. If you aren't in town to participate in or spectate a tournament, check the local sports calendar before booking. If a U11/U13 tournament is on, I would recommend staying elsewhere. If you are here for the hockey, this is clearly the ”hub,” but for the average traveler, the lack of peace and quiet makes it hard to justify the price point during these peak weekends."

"The room was very comfortable and clean, the living room had a combed bed, a family of four lived no problem, the balcony had a barbecue rack, the swimming pool was very clean, and the family went to Banff to play a very cost-effective choice."

"Location was great - 5mins walk to supermarket; 10-15mins walk to town centre of Canmore. We did check in and out via the link they sent us so we didn't meet any staffs - feels more like airbnb👍🏽 Room was clean and has everything it stated on trip.com. We can hear sounds from upper level when they walk/anyone stairs up - it didn't bother us as it usually happened during daytime when staffs were doing housekeeping. We will definitely be back to stay again💯"

"The hotel I stayed at during Christmas had a very festive atmosphere, and they even gave the children small Christmas gifts. The hotel lobby, with its natural wood trim, created a warm and inviting feeling. Complimentary refreshments were provided, making it a very pleasant place to relax. The rooms were fully equipped, each with a balcony offering fantastic mountain views. Definitely worth staying here again."

"It was a great place to stay, good location, friendly staff and beautiful views"
