What makes staying here different
Not the biggest hotel in Lake Louise - just the most recommended.
Adventure-ready from day one
Ski and bike storage, a ventilated wax room, a bike tuning area, and a free shuttle to Lake Louise Ski Resort. Built for people who are here to do things, not sit around waiting for a rental car to warm up.
A hot tub that's actually open when you need it
Fully renovated rooms plus an indoor hot tub and steam room, open daily from 8 am to 10 pm in the Main Lodge. If you're looking for a Lake Louise hotel with a hot tub, this is it: no extra fee, no reservation needed, just a hot soak after the trail.
A team, not a front desk
Activity planning, dining picks, shuttle schedules, even Jasper connections. Our Guest Services team knows the area and is available 24 hours a day, every day.
About breakfast: Hot buffet breakfast is available at $25 per person, served fresh daily in the Timber Building.
