“Good Value”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed September 22, 2012

We stayed at the Windtower only for one night September 15. (our second stay at this property). It was a beautiful weekend with the autumn colours but we were only at the hotel for the night. With that in mind we choose the room with one queen bed. It is very cramped by Canadian standards. The room was nicely decorated and very clean. The bed was comfortable and the location of the hotel is very quite as commared to many other properties in Canmore. The check in staff was very accomodating and the price (all be it off season) was very reasonable. The full hot breakfast was excellent. The only caution I would offer is that with most properties in Canmore there was no air conditioning in the rooms. If it is a hot summer day in Canmore it can be really uncomfortable in the rooms. I don't think there is a pool only hot tubs.

Room Tip: If you are there for a few nights you will probably want to have a suite for the extra space.

“Too expensive for what you are getting...look elsewhere!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed August 7, 2012

We just stayed in the past weekend (Aug 4-6); we had a queen room, this room is too small (if you like being in a box) with no air conditioning in any rooms (they have it hallway only...LOL), bed is foam so it made it even warmer. The room temperature is 30 degrees C with a ceiling fan going 24 hrs. and small window opened 24 hrs as well! We paid $150 per night, still have to pay parking $10/night (they owned parking underground) plus WIFI is $10 & there is a eco program charge at the end of your stay! Breakfast was included (eggs, sausage, bacon) same everyday, no fruits! The staff were unexperienced, not friendly at all! Cleaning staff came by at 5:00pm, when we were resting. No signs to put outside (eg. do not disturb or clean our room). Security lock does not work. WILL NOT STAY HERE AGAIN OR RECOMMEND TO ANYONE!!

“Back and another great stay!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 5, 2012

I really want to express my appreciation to the staff at Windtower. This is our third visit, and we were treated like returning family. At check-in they recognized our previous stays and offered us an upgrade to a 2-bedroom suite (we had booked a 1 bedroom suite). Very kind and attentive, we most certainly have recommended this property to our friends and have heard similar feedback.

Room Tip: Book a suite, they are much larger than standard rooms.

“Thanksgiving and Easter in Canmore Alberta -”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 15, 2012

I absolutely loved this lodge. I stayed here twice with my daughter and her husband and found it to be absolutely lovely! The views were beautiful the Three Sister Mountains were right outside our windows ---gorgeous! The grounds were well groomed and little wild bunnies ran loose all over the place.
The service was very good, food was great, and the Lodge was spotless.
It was pretty central to everything lots of nice areas to walk and in-ground parking.
The beds and rooms were very comfortable and spotless with a nice added touch, a fireplace.
I am not a winter person by no means but i must say that I cannot think of anything more cozy than sitting by a log fire with the snow falling outside and looking at the peaks of the "Three Sister Mountains" in the Canadian Rockies!! Would definitely stay here again when I go back!

“We had a nice stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed September 18, 2011

Friendly staff greeted us when we checked in.This was our first stay here.Our room was clean although small.There was an extra charge for underground parking and for internet. Continental breakfast was included with our stay.A gratuity for the breakfast was automatically added to our bill at checkout.Next time we would try a suite so we have more room.

Room Tip: If you have the budget,get a suite.A standard room is small.
