“outdated place, smelly, no heated rooms”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 October 2010

people found this review helpful

It was my unlucky day. I had to ask the receptionist to change my room 3 times and none of them had the heater working. Despite her efort to please me it wasn't her fault. The place is old, rooms are outdated, it's like you go to a 3* in Cuba.
Fortunatelly there is a excellent Super 8 motel 3Km away.
Thanks God I could move to another place.

All the staffs were very kind and informative, Food was great and beautiful view from the lounge was just enough to enjoy with cold beer at the end of your day. Room was very clean and comfortable with all available amenities.

This hotel was filthy. The Men's washroom in the taven was enough to make us gag. Staff seemed very unconcerned about adressing our concerns.

“Good for the Price and Value...Great Town!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 January 2006

people found this review helpful

This is a great hotel...except for maybe the rooms. Athabasca is a great place to go for a quiet summer getaway, close to Baptiste Lake, Forfar Lake, and Island Lake. It also has a great festival in the summer, the Athabasca River Rats Festival. It is a country 2 day concert and it has fun for the whole family.The hotel itself:
Food:The food was pretty good, not too much of a selection, but pretty good altogether. The bar had an array of different drinks and beers.
Rooms:The rooms were kinda old looking, but they were rooms and a great place to crash after a long day at the lake or festival. The beds and pillows were comfy and sheets were changed regularily.
Staff:We didn't see much of them, but the reception and the waiters were nice!I would recommend this hotel to anyone who needs a simple (and affordable) place to sleep and eat!
