Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Glacier Mountaineer Lodge is appreciated for its apartment-style rooms that come equipped with amenities like laundry machines and full kitchens including dishwashers, making longer stays convenient, especially when visiting attractions like Emerald Lake or the Icefields Parkway. The mountain views are a highlight for many, and having a washer and dryer in the room is a definite plus.

Excellent Stay near the Slopes

quality machine laundry facility mountain view useful setup

The room reminded me of a proper apartment. It included good quality machines for laundry. I used those facilities often. The lotions and other products provided were high quality. I found the laundry setup particularly useful. The mountain views from the room were fine.

I wished the room had air conditioning as it got quite warm in the afternoons.

Service

9/10

Staff members were friendly and helpful throughout my stay. I especially appreciated the boot dryers located in the ski locker area. They were very convenient after a day on the slopes.

Dining

8/10

I enjoyed meals in the nearby town as recommended by the hotel staff. The hotel does offer frozen food options to microwave. These options provide basic convenience for a quick meal.

Location

10/10

The location is ideal for skiing as it is near the slopes. The chair and gondola are located right behind the hotel. Underground parking adds a great level of convenience.
