"It was a dream of mine to stay in this hotel. The atmosphere smacks you as soon as you walk into that grand lobby. The view of Waterton Lake is spectacular! The staff all wear red (I'm guessing Stewart) plaid kilted uniforms and are everywhere. They are friendly and helpful. You can rent e-bikes that are awesome for free with your stay. We did that one day and it was so much fun. The room we stayed in on the 5th floor was small but had an updated bathroom. I can't complain about the room because it is an old and vintage hotel. The 5th floor is a hike though so be advised. The elevator (also old and vintage) only goes to the 4th floor, and a bell person must accompany you. The food and bar service were excellent. We only had a cocktail one night (the Queen Lilibet) and a full English breakfast our last day in the Stewart dining room. Star gazing on the property is wonderful but lights from the outside of the hotel limit your view. I'm guessing they are on 24/7 for safety reasons. Wildlife is plentiful around the hotel. We saw a black bear and every evening a herd of mountain goats pass through.
I can't say enough about this hotel, Waterton township and the greater Waterton Peace park. Canada really knows how to do it all well. Thank you for welcoming us!"
