"We stayed at Rundle Chalet in October. We loved the location as easy to get to Canmore with shopping/restaurants and right outside Banff NP gates. Lots of hiking all around. The cabin is rustic but we had a fridge, stove, mw, toaster oven and a big bonus was a Jotel wood stove. The beds sank in the middle, the bottom step was loose thus 4 stars. They even left us some firewood."

"The hotel is situated towards the end of the town. It’s very convenient. The rooms are large and include at least 2 chairs. We could sit on the balcony and had a view of the mountains. Beds were comfortable and rooms are clean and having a restaurant and bar in the lobby was helpful when the weather is bad. Staff was very helpful. The price of the room is very high but the rooms and location are great. I would expect breakfast to be included at that high a price."
