Mountain view Hotels in Canmore

"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."

"This hostel is 10/10 recommended. It is cheap and everything is with nice quality. The staffs there are really sweet. The restaurant and bar downstairs is an amazing place to meet the locals here and get to know more about Canmore and Banff. You can also make new friends here as a solo-traveler. This hostel makes my experience of this trip unforgettable. Also, I can’t believe people here wake up with this amazing view every day. The place is surrounded by snowy mountains, which make the experience feel like wonderland. It is also very convenient to travel from here to Banff. You just need to take bus 3. The bus stop is 2 minutes away from the hostel, which is very nice."

"The view from the room and hallway was spectacular. The staff was friendly, polite, and accommodating. He answered all our questions with big smiles and helped us with all our needs. The room is big. A door separates the bedroom and dining room. The dining room has a mini fridge, microwave, coffee maker, and tiny sink. A fireplace too inside the room The whirlpool outside was a bonus and felt relaxed while enjoying the fresh, cool air after a long day of driving and walking. Bed was very comfortable with lots of pillows and had a very good night sleep. Won't hesitate to book here again."

"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."

"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💯"

"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."

"The room was large and the beds comfy. The small kitchen had a kettle, coffee maker, microwave and fridge. There were two chairs outside our under a roof overhang and  a full barbecue and picnic table across from our room. It was in a convenient location and close to most things."

"The rooms were excellent!!! Clean! Has washing machine and dryer, all the utensils and kitchen ware (pots, pans, plates, cups, etc.), the bathrobes. The pool and Jacuzzi were sooo nice. The staff is kind and helpful. They have even a fireplace. The room is cozy and sooo big!!! No regrets!"

"It was a clean room , excellent breakfast but it ****** there wasn’t a fan in the bathroom and the tub was slippery to go in . Comfy beds ."
