The hotel offers a varied menu with excellent food and professional service. The rooms have windows that need to be propped open, located on different floors. The staff was courteous and welcoming, wearing uniforms fitting for the hotel's Swiss theme. The unique location provides breathtaking views of a long lake flanked by mountains, with the sky constantly changing colors. The dining experience was so worth it, although it took very long. The facilities are top-notch with fresh bread rolls available.

The hotel needs serious updating, especially in the rooms, which were very unclean with worn-out furnishings. Despite the questionable conditions, the location offers breathtaking views of the mountains and lakes, making the 2.5-hour drive from Calgary worth it. The dining experience had its highs and lows, with some pleasant surprises mixed with disappointments.

The hotel overlooks the lobby and is quite noisy at night, affecting sleep quality. The rooms are standard size for a national park, but at premium prices and lacking modern amenities like closet space, poor lighting, and no entertainment options. The service is a mixed bag, with excellent housekeeping but questionable value for the high rates. The location is stunning, offering breathtaking views of Waterton Lake in Waterton National Park. The dining experience is hit or miss, with some dishes being inedible. Overall, the hotel has pros and cons worth considering before booking.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. It was one of the less expensive options, and I enjoyed the small balcony for capturing stunning sunrise and sunset views, but cleanliness in the room was lacking with hairs in the sink.

The location is second to none, situated in Waterton Lakes National Park, offering dramatic views and real wildlife sightings. The management was proactive in addressing issues like 'wood bugs' in the morning.

The dining experience had its ups and downs. While the breakfast was generous and cost-effective compared to others in the area, the Canadian biscuits and gravy were a disappointment, leading us to explore dining options in Waterton town.
