Deer Lodge

Can’t beat the location for proximity to Lake Louise without the prices of the Fairmont. Property does have a games/music room and the late night drumming made it hard to sleep at 11pm. Food was ok.

We liked the character of the building.

It was a shame that there were no restaurant or bar facilities open for the fall season. Therefore lack of atmosphere around the lodge. Old accommodation but very functional and well appointed. Enjoyed our stay - but it could have been better.

Stayed here last night before returning home, lovely location and enjoyed beautiful relaxing evening on balcony outside restaurant. Staff friendly and helpful at check in. Excellent facilities and options for dining.

Great location.. good value Nice room for deluxe king room. View was good and room was modern Only dowmfall was breakfast … limited food not replenished … no service from staff Dinner was delicious and staff were really good

It was at a convenient location. Very basic hotel to just sleep. They did not have any dining services on site even though I received messages from them stating that the dining devices on site would be available. Walls are thin and you can hear everything in the hallways and neighboring rooms.

Location is perfect, with only a 5min walk to Lake Louise. The staff at front desk & breakfast restaurant always looked miserable & everything was an effort. The amenities were poor - ice machine out of order, vending machines switched off, hot tub on top deck closed for maintenance. The room needed a fridge, so important when traveling for several days to have your own food and drinks cold. No tv in rooms. After sightseeing for the day, its nice to be able to feel like you are at home with a cold drink and put on the tv for a bit of downtime. The room was always kept clean and tidy.

Deer Lodge is in a great location. It’s an easy walk to the lakeside and has an historic role in the development of this area. Sadly, it’s owned by a resort organisation that’s taken the business decision to stop investing in the property and it will be converted to staff accommodation from November 2023. Therefore, we recommend that any prospective guest adjusts their expectations. The halls are gloomy, poorly lit and have linoleum floors. Rooms have no tv. Breakfast is advertised as starting at 7:00am, but during our stay staff were arriving at this time! Guests lined up waiting for the modest buffet to open and it was not fully functional until 7:25am. If you have a choice, stay elsewhere. The owners of this property are not committed to you as a guest and while the young staff are trying hard, this hotel is on its last legs

It’s just amazing ♥️

Wifi and breakfast definitely adds a lot of convenience. < 10 minutes walk to Lake Louise.
