It’s an older building with some excellent renovations, at least in our space. Everything from the bed, TV, shower, worked very well. The checkin was smooth and the receptionist warm, friendly and efficient. The location is hard to beat if you like to walk to dining and coffee. Lots of options an easy 5-10’ stroll away. We would definitely stay again.

Rooms are very run down. For a hotel in Canmore, this place should be updated/renovated for the amount you pay. ($260/night - this is a $99 truck stop at best) Not insulated for sound well at all, you can hear everything going on in the rooms beside and above. Lots of people coming and going until early in the morning. Wont be staying here again. Would not recommend.

We really enjoyed our stay and were pleasantly surprised at our king suite that we had booked on the third floor. The ladies at reception were really lovely and check in/out was a quick and easy. We loved having the family restaurant attached to the Inn which made last minute dinner plans easy. Thank you Drake Inn!
