I had a decent stay at the hotel, which is ideally situated right off the highway and offers stunning mountain views. The rooms were spacious and included a large, comfortable bed, although they felt a bit dated and could use some refreshing. The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating, but the overall service needed improvement in certain areas. While the location is great for accessing the ski hill, it's quite far from downtown and many amenities.

The hotel has a great location with stunning mountain views and a river running behind it. Unfortunately, I found the rooms quite run down and poorly maintained, which really affected my stay. The service staff were friendly and accommodating, making a positive impact on my experience. While the dining offered some nice views, the food could definitely use a little more flavor. Overall, it was nice but not ideal for the price.

Rooms

5.0

My room felt really cramped and like it belonged in a basement. The furnishings seemed outdated, and I had to plunge the toilet myself. The overall cleanliness left a lot to be desired, as the carpets weren't vacuumed during my entire five-day stay.

Service

The service was quite friendly, especially the staff in the lounge. They did seem to struggle a bit with cleaning and restocking during breakfast, which could have been improved.

Location

The location was really beautiful, nestled right by a river with wonderful mountain views. It felt a bit isolated though, being miles away from any restaurants, even if it was only a short drive to the ski hill.

Dining

Breakfast included waffles with a lovely view of the river, but I wished the food had more flavor. It felt like it could be better with a fresh perspective.

The hotel had some ups and downs during my stay. On the plus side, the location was fantastic, right between downtown Fernie and the ski hill, which made it super convenient. The family-friendly atmosphere was great, and the kids had a blast. However, I found the rooms in need of repair, and the dining options were limited at best. Overall, it's a decent spot, but I believe they could improve on a few things.

Rooms

The rooms were run down, with a few issues like an electrical socket hanging off the wall and a mattress that had a bed spring sticking out, which unfortunately caused an injury.

6.6/10

The hotel has a great location right beside the river, which makes for peaceful strolls, but the rooms are a bit outdated and can be noisy due to the nearby highway. The service is super friendly and accommodating, and while the dining experience offers some nice views, the options for breakfast could definitely use improvement. Overall, it’s not a bad place for a family with kids, but some updates would help enhance the stay.

Rooms

5.0

The rooms felt outdated and a little dingy, and with a preschooler and toddler, it didn’t work perfectly for us. Plus, being one of the closest rooms to the highway meant I wore earplugs and still heard traffic throughout the night.

Service

The service was super friendly and accommodating, especially with our early check-in. The staff were extremely welcoming and helpful.

Location

The hotel is situated right along the river, making for serene walks, and it's conveniently located near the ski hill. Although it’s a bit of a distance from restaurants, it offers a quiet spot just off the highway.

Dining

The breakfast had nice views of the river but could improve with more options, as it felt understocked for the number of guests.
