Absolutely amazing views and nearby hiking and dining options. Staff were amazing and knowledgeable. Each night offering an info session about the property was a nice touch.

8/10 Very good

Great staff. Very friendly and helpful. Minimalist rooms. Had high tea in the main area and we were sweating due to sun. That made it uncomfortable to enjoy the tea. Suggestion is to move the tables back out of the sun. All in all a great stay

This hotel is iconic and a must-stay place once in your lifetime. Our room has a lake-view which is incredible. The tea service was super fun and the service is stellar. Our room has a deck which you can walk out on. Bathroom is updated and clean. Bedding is comfy and clean. Highly recommend.

Stayed one night but loved the beautiful view. Staff was super nice and very accommodating. Loved the fact they loaned us bear spray while visiting because we did see several bear sightings.

Darlene, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Beautiful location and lovely property. Smaller rooms but quite adequate. The hotel was built in 1928 and reflect the time period with upgrades. The view from the lobby is wonderful and give the Canadian welcome anyone would want to have. Nice restaurant at hotel and some nearby. Small town flavor. well worth the visit

One night stay

Stayed here traveling back from Jasper to Kalispell. The lodge was in a beautiful location. Phenomenal views and we actually walked to the Bears Hump trailhead. Service was average. We waited 45 for our breakfast in the restaurant. One small slow elevator - we took the stairs.
Bruce, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Blake and Mia were especially great Bell Hops. Very service oriented and a lovely old historic hotel. Great views from the Lobby and dining room. Interesting historical 7pm talks by Bell Hops. We had a very relaxing time. Fun scenic boat ride and some nice short hikes and beautiful drives. Also enjoyed the Buffalo Paddock. Waterton is not near as crowded as GNP in Montana!
Nancy, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Loved the staff and history of hotel. The view is marvelous. The room really needs to get some sound proofing, ear plugs don't cut it.
Kyla, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Amazing place, wonderful stay! Absolutely loved our 2 nights at Prince of Wales. The staff go out of their way to be helpful and kind. Food and service in lounge and restaurant were top notch. Our room was small, but certainly adequate and we were only there to sleep. Too much to do and enjoy in Waterton with just 2 days there. Will be back and would recommend.
