Staff were kind, efficient. The room was spotless: perfectly designed in synchrony to the mountain setting. The bedside lamps were unforgetably unique. I want some! Bed was extremely comfortable. The bedding was, too, perfect for romm temp. Tv was large and greatly situated and lots of good movies available. Coffee good and tea was in common space. The night was soundless, so we slept very well. Great value, indeed! Thank you for a flawless stay!

Need lamps with USB ports as the outlets on the lamps do not allow using a USB adapter. Had to put iPad across the room on floor to charge.

We had a great one night stay. Check-in was a breeze since we submitted our information in advance. We were greeted by the front desk and our room was very welcoming with the tv set to a log fire and lights set dimly. The room was well stocked with everything we needed. There was even ear plugs, if needed, but we didn’t find that there wasn’t any need for them. The rooms are newly renovated and the staff did a great job cleaning the space. The location is great and there’s parking around the building. Some spots are tight, but they advise large vehicles to park up front where there’s more room. All staff that we came across were all very friendly. We’ll definitely stay here again!

Great stay at this affordable hotel. The parking is tricky if you have a larger vehicle. The train also goes through frequently if you are a light sleeper. The hotel has provided ear plugs for this. Very walkable and great dining options close.

Tiny room, even no space to open suitcase n the floor (admitted by front desk employee it used to be a hostel). Cars parked right in front of the window if you’re on a ground floor (and I mean right in front, not across the driveway). Very poor planning, and seems no soundproofing materials were used when renovating this place. Left us really disappointed for the price we paid in the shoulder season.

The online check in process was super easy and great for us because we were running late and didn’t have to worry about whether we would arrive in time. The room was clean and in a great area of town! We really enjoyed Rocky Mountain Bagel next door. Would definitely come back!

Had a wonderful stay at Basecamp Lodge Canmore! The room was amazing — clean, cozy, and well-maintained. The mountain view from the window was absolutely stunning and made the stay even more special. The location is quiet, peaceful, and feels very safe. Would definitely love to come back again!

Bed was comfy, easy access to highway, good food/restaurant close by. Good for the price - however, close to train track which runs often throughout the day and night. The walls are thin and you can really hear neighbours above you. Overall, a good stay for the price.

Room was spotless, staff were helpful, and overall experience was great. Only complaint would be the lack of parking and how tight the parking lot is for trucks. I have a pretty typical GMC Sierra 1500 and was unable to make the turn around the main building to access parking in the back. Parking was full in the front so was forced to park in the neighbouring basecamp lot. Not a huge deal but will definitely bring a smaller vehicle next time.
