The property was surprisingly quite being right beside the road and their was a live band that night which we enjoyed and it was still quite. Food and drinks and service was great. Not a lot of parking but we did get a good spot under our room.

A couple nights at the Drake

Incredible price for Canmore. We needed pet friendly. They were great. Gave us a creekside room. Complimentary drinks and mad specials at the attached pub. Room was hot first night. The thermostat failed. They had it fixed immediately. Great views, comfy beds, clean, super central to downtown. Hotel is older but was fine.

Great little place with lots of amenities within walking distance. The room was clean but stayed very warm day & night, even with the thermostat set to 10c, so had to run a fan all night. Couldn’t keep window open as it opened onto a busy street with lots of vehicle and pedestrian traffic. Having the pub in the same lot was nice for a quick meal. Love that The Drake has pet friendly rooms! Front desk staff were very friendly and helpful.

The Inn is surrounded by beauty, great staff. However we could have had a bigger stock of toilet paper in the room we had to buy more when it was after hours. Also no microwave in the room but that was probably something I missed when booking! I also wish I could have gotten the room darker, the windows let in a lot of light and my baby couldn’t sleep. Beautiful scenery. Overall good stay

A bit older building, expected for the price. It was quite hot inside the unit, and we had the heat at 10c. With an open window, in February. Not sure why it was so hot. Acceptable for the price and location is fantastic.
