“Good rates, But:”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed September 27, 2012

The rates are good, beats paying Banff hotel prices, but: Don't stay here if it's hot out! The A/C does not work. Fan clatters and there is no way to shut it off. It's an older hotel. Because i heard another room air conditioner sounding crazy like ours. We managed ok, but if it would have been any hotter, it would have been a lousy, sweaty stay!

“You get what you pay.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed September 24, 2012

Everything is average. A bit run down with the most basic of neccesities. No hair dryer. The front office staff at the time of check-in was not the most friendliest of people but did at least offer some directions to the restaurant we chose. The bed was hard as a rock. As always, you get what you pay.

“So Disappointed”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed September 24, 2012

Elaina K said it best .. we were originally booked in for a 2 night stay thru a Groupon deal and we checked out after the first night .. I would never recommend this place to anyone ! We were there in May and the air conditioner was bashed in then .. reading Elaina's review only shows that whoever owns this place does not care about their investment !!

I have never seen a motel not have a fridge or coffee maker in their rooms before .. who wants to go down to the lobby for a coffee in their pj's ? seriously !!! the furniture was all stained .. the night stand had cigarette burn marks on it .. the ice bucket was a plastic container that you would find at the Bulk Barn to fill up ... and to make it worse .. they charge you a "resort fee" on check out .. what a joke !!!

DO NOT stay here !! this place needs a serious overhaul !!!

Room Tip: do not book here

“Great value for money”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 17, 2012

Within a short distance from the town center this hotel is a great value for money. We had a room facing away from the road, so had a good night sleep. For $60 a night we had a large private room with two double beds. We only stayed for one night, so did not use any facilities. If you are looking for a budget hotel in a Rockies, that is it. I would definitely stay there next time, over any expensive hotels in Banff of the center of Canmore.

Room Tip: Chose a room with a mountain view

“Mountain View Inn, Terrible hotel!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed August 5, 2012

My boyfriend and I just got back from a trip to Alberta, We decided on the way home to stay at the Mountain View Inn since it seemed affordable for a quick overnight stay before heading home.
The location of the hotel is great, and the outside of the hotel looked okay at first glance, But once we parked and went to go in we realized there was a huge dent on the side of the building where a car must of drove in to ( not kidding ), The Air conditioner it hit had no back siding to it and they just left it looking that way. When we got in we were greeting buy a young gentleman, he was very friendly and knowledgeable . When we got into our room we were disgusted by it, the beds were hard as rock, There was a broken lamp , The tv was from the early 90's with squiggly lines on the channels that worked and half of them you couldn't see anything at all, When I had got on the bed I realized there was green glitter all over !. My boyfriend wanted to check something on the internet so he went down to get the password for the " highspeed " internet, only to be told that " well, you can try it in your room but the best place to get reception is down here " , To go on the internet , we would of had to go sit downstairs in the tiny lobby, and this isn't the worst of it, If we had wanted our room cleaned the next morning like what most hotels do complimentary , It would cost 50.00 for a room to be wiped down, or 20.00 for a super light clean, 0r 10.00 to get our bedding changed.
This hotel is disgusting, It had the potential to be a good hotel if they did a full makeover of the hotel and got new management (The new management it has clearly doesn't know how to run a hotel )....So my best advice is save up a extra 50$ and stay at another hotel in town, If you do plan on staying here anyways, Make sure you have a extra 100.00 for damage deposit ( yes this crappy hotel asks for a damage deposit ) .

Room Tip: Any room not in this hotel would be a great room.
