“In my opinion, this inn's prime location on Canmore's main street, steps from the river and best spots, is a major draw; plus, the staff's hospitality makes a real difference. While it might show some wear, the clean, comfortable rooms with firm beds offer excellent value, especially given Canmore's prices, and I find that the lively bar downstairs is a definite plus.”
