Budget accommodation doesn't exist in Lake Louise, so if you want a place to rest your head for the night that won't break the bank, then the Mountaineer Lodge is probably the best option. Our room was clean, comfortable and well equipped. The Lodge buldings were attractive, especially the reception area and there was a nice hot tub facility. The... more

Beautiful lobby, just gorgeous! Average rooms, nothing special. The cleaning service was great but the staff, including management, left a lot to be desired! I would not recommend this hotel. We ended up switching to another hotel in the area half way through our stay that was less expenive, equally as nice and had a whole lot better service! We... more

There seems to be 2 grades of room at the Mountaineer, standard and luxury. We were in a 'luxury' room in the main building with reception. Our room featured a fridge/combi oven/coffee maker which was helpful, as we bought our breakfast things from the local bakery and just ate it in the room. The fridge was quite noisy though, but... more

An OK lodge that was clean enough if you can't afford better, but would probably move up to Baker's Creek Cabins next time. The hotel sits between a fairly busy highway and an extremely busy rail road. With the windows open, it sounds like the train is passing through your room at times. No frig or phone? Parking is cramped... more

We ended up having to stay here because our trip was delayed. We were lucky to have gotten the last room available. However the room must be the last to rent because it was filthy. The comforter had urine stains on it and when we removed it we found semen stains on the blanket. At least the sheets apeared clean.... more

We recently returned from a trip throughout the Canadian National Parks which included a stay at the Mountaineer Lodge at Lake Louise in the Banff National Park in Alberta, Canada during July, 2008. From my very first contact with the Lodge staff on the phone to the staff at the registration desk, both in the evening and in the morning,... more

We stayed 1 night at Mountaineer Lodge in Lake Louise. We booked directly on the hotel's website and emailed with staff who advised us to book in the main building. We were not disappointed. While the hotel is definitely not in the same category as "The Chateau", the price was not either. We had a nice size, clean room, with... more

Stayed here for one night. The lodge and room it's self was fine. Room clean and spacious. The whirlpool was nice after a long day hiking. The issue was the bed itself. The mattress is not on a box spring but on a box made of wood on the floor. It was so hard and uncomfortable, it contributed to us... more
