8.2/10 Very Good! (106 reviews)

The check in process is a bit difficult. Meaning the keyless entry screen doesn’t work super well. I have stayed here twice and I love the building and rooms, but, both times I needed tenants to help. The screen needs a certain touch and the tenants advised that using keys works best (the tip of the key).

9.2/10 Wonderful! (188 reviews)

We absolutely loved our stay at Storm Mountain Lodge. Our cabin was cozy and comfortable, and they provided kindling to have a fire in the fireplace. The lodge was cozy and charming, and our two dinners at the restaurant were both fantastic. I would return again in a heartbeat. The lodge was also a great location between Banff and Lake Louise, with nearby hiking also available.
