We stopped by Deer Lodge code the years when visiting Lake Louise for our meals and weee impressed with the food quality and the rustic ambiance. Hence, we picked it as the hotel to stay for our 41st wedding anniversary celebration, the protest sent us emails suggesting us to try out the restaurants and meals as recent as a couple of days before our arrival and we planned to do just that. You could imagine the disappointment we had when we checked in that the Restaurants were all closed. Why would they not provided forewarning when we booked and why they kept sending email to promote their restaurants for our stay?

Front desk informed us upon check in that this property is closing in 10 days for 2 years of renovations, no restaurant or food on site for such a remote location, made it uncomfortable. Property Updates definitely required but a heads up would have been nice.

It was a shame that there were no restaurant or bar facilities open for the fall season. Therefore lack of atmosphere around the lodge. Old accommodation but very functional and well appointed. Enjoyed our stay - but it could have been better.

Can’t beat the location for proximity to Lake Louise without the prices of the Fairmont. Property does have a games/music room and the late night drumming made it hard to sleep at 11pm. Food was ok.

It was at a convenient location. Very basic hotel to just sleep. They did not have any dining services on site even though I received messages from them stating that the dining devices on site would be available. Walls are thin and you can hear everything in the hallways and neighboring rooms.

The unit is old and not suitable for people with mobility issues. There are many steps up and down throughout. There are no elevators,the halls are narrow and the parking lot is uneven and unpaved. Despite asking for handicapped space we were given a room on the second floor far from the entrance. The property also advertises being on Lake Louise and it is not.

Good until checking out

It was good but downfall was when checking out, the front desk argued that the stay had not been paid even though it was prepaid. As much as we provide evidence that it had been paid from hotel app, little assistance given to resolve this. We had to provide him with hotel.com number to call to eventually prove that all had been settled. I understand if he is in training but would be much appreciated if he could show some initiatives/ interest to resolve rather than insisting ONLY that we need to make pymt.

Great Hotel near Lake Louise

The location is great! We are just walk away from Lake Louise. This is one thing that is very nice booking on nearby hotel so you can go to the lake when the crowd is not yet there. The hotel is rustic and clean. The breakfast is okay, it is the same everyday.
