If the location is great, the condo itself is very uncomfortable. The bed I have no boxsprings With mattress laying directly on springs, That makes for very noisy and uncomfortable beds. In addition the bathroom door do not lock, the train goes through town about 30 feet away from the back window, they are broken chairs on the deck, and one of the bedroom as a wall that doesn’t reach the ceiling so if people are watching TV downstairs, you cannot sleep, I will never come back here, it was one of the most uncomfortable beds I’ve had in years

So disappointed

Do not be fooled by the photos and exterior. My family and I had the misfortune of staying in unit 140 this past weekend. Many of our comments are the same as the reviewers below regarding mold in the kitchen, the area rug in the living area to cover stained carpet, etc.

I've stayed in cleaner hostels and it's clear the owners do not care about the state of their units and only the $$ coming in nightly. 

The kitchen has the barest minimum of things needed to cook a meal. Need scissors? Nope. Need a baking sheet? No can do. Oh, and good luck with the stovetop as only one element works. 

Years of built up grime in the bathrooms, hairs that weren't ours in the bedrooms and bathrooms, grunge in the grout. Stained carpet, dirty walls. This place needs some serious TLC. 

Good walkable location but it's right beside the train tracks. Bring earplugs if you do still decide to stay here. 

Do Not Stay Here

A friend and I rented unit #124 as a VRBO here for a long weekend.  The unit is small, but plenty large enough for what we needed, and gave us a small kitchen, dining table and living area for less than we would have paid for two hotel rooms.   As long as one is reasonably able-bodied and fit, the Canadian Rockies Chalets is walking distance to just about anywhere in Canmore, at least on that side of the highway. One night we walked to Goucho's for dinner and stopped at Safeway on the way back.  Bear in mind, parking at the Chalet is very limited, the later your arrival, the less likely you will find a spot (and the more difficult it will be to maneuver in and out of any remaining spots).  If you are a light sleeper with an early bedtime, be aware the walls are very thin so the fewer the vacancies (ie, weekends in the winter when units are full of skiers and probably any time in the summer months), the more likely you will hear footsteps and voices from adjoining units.  But we enjoyed our stay here very much and would totally stay here again if we return to visit Banff, or Lake Minnewanka, or Lake Louise, or any other destinations in the Banff area again.

Nice, cozy units near Banff

I have been coming here for over 15 years.  It used to be run as a budget hotel with a front desk, a hot tub and indoor pool table.  Yup, those were the days....

Now it has mostly taken the form of airbnb and you book through websites like expedia/booking etc.  But you can still book through its own website, but you do not have a lot of units to choose from.  If you are looking for a 2+ bedroom condo this is definitely a place to check out.  But it is starting to look its age.  There is definitely no onsite management and so any issues are dealt with via phone.   On the plus side, it has a full kitchen including stove and full sized refrigerator.  These are a must have for those vacationing on a budget.

Cheap accommodation, but avoid the side that faces the trains....

When we first discovered the Canadian Rockies Chalets, about eight or ten years ago, we loved staying here so much. The beds were so comfortable, the location is great - walkable to the Spice Hut, grocery stores and central Canmore - and we enjoyed the views of the mountains. However this hotel has now deteriorated so much that our most recent stay will be our last. There are so many options in Canmore that we do not need to stay somewhere with stained carpets, warped baseboards, worn-out towels, toilet paper so thin it’s practically see-through, dirt and scratches on the walls, and so on. The bed in the main bedroom has a squeaky shaky frame and the mattress itself is lumpy. Although the bed is king size, a queen size duvet has been put inside the duvet cover so that one person in the bed doesn’t get properly covered. How cheap!  Most distressingly - there was visible mold on the wall in the kitchen and, to cover worn carpet on the living room, an area rug has been laid down which doesn’t fit the space properly and creates a tripping hazard. The current owners clearly just want to squeeze money out the place without putting anything into maintenance and don’t care about the comfort, health or safety of their guests. Do yourself a favour and go elsewhere.

Used to be so good - what happened? :-(

Do NOT rent here !….
All renters boast on view … which great !.. and just happen to mention “ train tracks”….
But ALL fail to mention that these trains are incredibly loud and go on for all night !!! 24 hrs a day!
I had to leave this Place by Janette and go to another hotel to get some sleep!!! … she didn’t give a damn!! Nor did Airbnb!
DO NOT rent this place !!!

DO NOT Rent Here - Noise Unbearable

Money grabbers. Charge $150.00 for putting keys in the return box by office. There is no clear direction of where the keys go…. Refunded me $100 but still charged me $50 because they said a cleaner could not get in. Stay elsewhere were you can trust. 

Money grabbers

Nice and spacious.  We booked 2 chalets for 10 of us.   Having a full kitchen was convenient.  Very good location - close enough to go to Banff National park and lots of places to eat and shop in the town.   

Nice place to retreat

Wonderful, beautiful trip.  Stayed in Canmore, in spring Creek condo.  Great residence for the 9 day visit.  Loved the town and people.   Fantastic trip. Visited the falls in Banff, the art museum and indigenous people museum, all were very impressive.  Are at three bears brewery and food was terrific, beer too.  
Hiked to tea house at lake Louise and it is a tough one for a 68 year old, but payoff is worth every step .  Also visited falls and lake on kanaskis side another beautiful place.  Drove Icefields parkway and was awed by it's beauty

Banff, lake Louise. Etc.

The room was not clean, I had several black hairs, both long hair and pubic hair stuck all over the shower, dirt eand grime on the doors along the edge and around the door knob where people had obviously touched over and over. There were yellow drip marks down the walls in the bathroom that dropped down to the baseboard covered in grime. 
And Finger prints and hand prints on the walls. 

Their covid/cleaning procedure is to provide the guest with cleaner and tell you to wipe down high touch areas. I didn’t realize I would be cleaning all high touch areas upon arrive, then the toilet (found public hair there too) and the shower before use. 

This was an upgraded room which really doesn’t mean much of anything, it had three bedrooms with doors instead of the unit I was booking that had the master as a loft bedroom. That’s basically it.

When I emailed about these complaints, my first email was ignored and once I emailed again the owner did come apologize and offered the cleaner to come in and clean it better... but I had already done that so we could use the place in the meantime. 

They offered me a $50 discount on my next stay, and even stated in the email that this was their way of ensuring I return. 

When I said I’d like the discount on this stay they simply said that’s not possible considering I already had a free upgrade and a $35 discount. 

So I emailed again to clarify that I didn’t deserve a clean room because I had a discount or upgrade. I will only get a discount due to the lack of cleanliness if I choose to stay here again. 

There are better places to stay in Canmore for sure.
