Had to have a weekend meeting, so decided that it could be in Canmore as well as Calgary, so booked rooms and a meeting room at the Canmore Holiday Inn. Everyone was pleased with the rooms, the staff were simply superb, even the meeting room was set up nice and was comfortable. With this being close to an afternoon of snowshoeing, great food in Canmore and the beautiful scenery, this was a great place to be even if you have to get some work done. :-)

A winter season visit to the Rocky Mountains is a bucket-list item. If you have a week to spend, it is worth renting a condo-style unit, but if you just have 1 or 2 days this hotel will fit the bill nicely. Canmore is the less-expensive alternative to Banff.

The only negative to this hotel is the weird dining room. It looks like an afterthought. No ambience at all.

We planned a family ski trip over New Years and enjoyed our stay here. The hotel is close to the highway but you can't hear the traffic at all (and we were facing the highway). That being said, it's a quick exit to Banff for skiing or dinner. The hotel was packed for New years eve and I was worried that it was going to be noisy. There were some party revellers at about 1am but they were not that easily heard and we all enjoyed a good nights sleep. There is no pool and only a small 8 person hot tub. Not easy to find the hot tub empty and quiet so we never used it. Staff are very friendly and the complimentary breakfast is fantastic. There was a mix up with our ski tickets that the hotel supplied when we first booked in October for this event. It is probably best to confirm everything before you come down as we did not and had to buy a youth ski ticket even though we had already paid (they told us in October that the price we paid included youth but it did not). All in all we will stay here again, but will just double check everything before hand.

We got a great rate at this hotel and it was perfect as a base for exploring the Rockies and Skiing. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Peaceful setting just off the highway and not far from town. Would stay again.
