King side bed
Everything was wondering especially the location right into town! Loved my bathtub! However, both my husband and other guest 's husband was very frustrated having to crawl onto their side.
It would be nice to have a queen sized bed so both husband and wife can get out of their side of the bed

Convenient
Spacious, bathroom and kitchen were renovated but carpet in bedroom/living area has to be next. Furniture could use an upgrade too.
Great location and nice grounds outside with tables you can use.

We would most definitely stay at Waterton Lakes Lodge again for future visits. In addition to the central location and cleanliness, the staff was welcoming and helpful.

Overpriced
Overpriced for what is offered. The room was dated,
did not have maid service each day. Pool was closed, I guess waiting for a part. Restaurant had rain entering in from the window's running diwn the walls.

Very beautiful property and very close to lake. Due to certain circumstances we had to cut out trip short and they did not charge us for the night we cut short. Very professional staff and very generous people. Highly recommend staying here!

Hummingbird Room
The “resort” was centrally located in the tiny town, so we could walk everywhere. Our hotel room had very comfortable beds and a clean and completely redone bathroom, which was nice. The hotel buildings were in need of paint and some repair and the furniture in our room was outdated, but it was nice to have a medium-sized fridge and a desk. Our room was on the second floor and there are not elevators. We did not eat at the hotel restaurant. The resort seemed a bit short-staffed but everyone was friendly and helpful.

Great little getaway
Great little windy town. We went off season so most shops and restaurants were closed but it was the perfect quiet getaway.
Comfy beds and great service.
Be warned its windy here.

There was no one at the front desk at 7:30 for us to check in. Called emergency line many times and left messages and still no answer. After 15 minutes I saw an employee outside on the phone. He seemed to ignore us as we waited at the desk. Then was rude when I interrupted his call to get us checked in and claimed he was on the phone with manager
