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.

Room was large and spacious with a nice ambience from the fireplace. The train wasn’t as loud as other reviews make it seem. Some routine maintenance could be given closer attention.

Minimal frills stay in a remodeled motel. Check in and check out are handled from your own phone so no interaction with staff. Room mostly clean and location convenient. For the price being charged, facility should have more amenities or personal service.
