Wi Fi was great, location superb and an easy find. The two bed suites were great but I was sharing with distant relatives and the only bathroom was through their bedroom - not exactly ideal! Very warm bedroom with an electric fan but nowhere to plug it in. Just niggles though - all in all a great little place.

Nice place, the service was fantastic. The place needs a coat of paint and some upgrading though. The bed was old and you had to watch opening doors. The place was built a long time ago so there are no modern amenities. The thing is you don't go to Waterton to hang out in the room so it did its... More

Yup, this isn't a bad property at all and if you can get it for decent price you won't be too disappointed. Just be forewarned, that the hotel has not been updated in quite awhile and there is a lot of "deferred maintenance" that needs to be done. The wifi is also pretty weak. The shower in our room was...

We had a friendly greeting at reception with plenty of info. The lodge is one of the first buildings you see on arriving in the main townsite so is convenient. We had a suite with 2 bedrooms, a living/kitchen area and bathroom. However the bathroom entrance was through one of the bedrooms. The bed was a little uncomfortable and the... More

This is by far the best place to stay in Waterton. We stayed in the winter in the big Grizzly room at the end of the hotel. This is their fanciest room and has a jacuzzi tub in the room. We also stayed in the winter with some friends in a double room complete with fireplace and kitchen. The rooms... More

When staying in this area you have to realise where you are and how remote you are from City life.If it's 5 star treatment, full tv channels etc. then you are in the wrong place. If on the other hand you want clean, comfortable and a warm place to stay then Crandell Hotel is fine. Our room at first looked... More

The rooms at Crandall Mountain Lodge are pretty small, the one queen bed fills up the space (we stayed in room 8). There is a refrigerator in the room, and a TV too, but the TV only picks up two Canadian news channels, so it is only worth turning on to catch the weather report. The manager at Crandall is... More

We stayed in a double room and we found it to be very pleasant. Someone else commented that it was outdated and like staying in grandma's house. Well I thought that actually made it quaint and appealing, with quilts and that cosy feeling. The room was quite small but big enough to do it's job. We found it to be... More

We had never been to Waterton before. I was pleasantly surprised when we arrived at Crandell Mountain Lodge. We visited at the end of the season. (Sept. 29/30th 2012) We stayed in room #3. It had a double (full) size bed and a twin bed. There was a little dining table, a TV (we never used), fire place, tiny kitchen... More
