I spent a few days here at this hotel on a cross country ski trip and was pleasantly surprised. Our rooms were ready when we arrived at noon. Our room was spacious and clean with two queen beds. Staff was very happy to bring us robes. A tip: try to get a room in the main building as all the facilities are there: swimming pool, steam room and hot tubs - that way you can access them easily and not have to walk outside from the other buildings. Internet is free. Breakfast was good value: a continental that included porridge and waffles as well as fruits and cheese selection and various breads and pastries and coffee! While this place is not of the same category as The Post, it offers good value and is a decent place to stay.

For Cheap, Clean, and Safe Lodging, this is a good choice.

I have stayed at Lake Louise Inn a couple of times, most recently January 2012. It is a relatively large hotel complex with a number buildings and different styles of rooms, from small and cheap to more costly lofts with kichenettes.

I recently stayed at the cheapest room, $90.00 on a weekend night, in a building known as The Pinery.

Lake Louise is a very expensive place. There is nothing cheap or cost effective about Lake Louise. So if you want cheap accommodation, that's clean and safe, with good service, you will not beat the low end rooms at Lake Louise Inn at $90.00 a night. Can you get more for less in other cities? Yes, but not at Lake Louise. If you want to play here, you best have some disposable income.

The room is very small. It has very old furnishings. The bathroom is very small and does not offer much for privacy from the bed area. You can hear people walking above you and the walls are very thin. The TV is old. The beds are small and not very comfortable. However, this must all be balanced with the cheap cost, given the price of Lake Louise generally.

Please keep in mind this hotel has lots of different options based on what you want to pay when you read other reviews. The Inn is is not The Chateau Fairmont, but its also not anywhere near its price category.

The exterior is a bit ugly and dated. The pool is not very nice or private as it has large windows that look right into the main lobby. There are a few different restaurants and a nice pub for eating options and the food is good.

I would not recommend the cheapest rooms for a lengthy stay or a stay with kids. Too small, old and cramped. That being said, in order to save some cash for skiing, I would stay here again.

My wife and I just stayed one night at the Lake Louise Inn as we were attending a conference there in town. We had very nice service when we arrived. We arrived very late and checked in.

There were two queen beds in our room. The good news is although the room looked somewhat old and worn, it was clean. Especially the bathroom. My wife got ready for bed and crawled in. I had some work to do so I opened the bed sheets on the second queen and noticed long, black hairs, and body hairs (this was about 1am). Obviously the sheets had not been changed.

Anyway, I mentioned this to the front desk the next morning (as I did not want to wake my wife) apon check out and all the lady sad was "sorry" twice. Since we stayed in our room and were in a hurry, I did not raise a fuss or ask for the manager.

All that I reccommend is that you check your bed before getting in.

This hotel is about the best bang for your buck in Lake Louise for an average hotel.

TIP: make sure to upgrade to the executive king room if you want an updated, nicer room, we had the older style room. Make sure to ask to pay the advanced no-cancellation price, which was cheaper. I paid $131.75 (plus hotel tax).

My husband and I went for a romantic weekend getaway. The room was clean, well kept, and comfortable. Decore was relatively new. Staff were helpful and courteous. I would stay there again.
