The Inn is cute and quaint, and has a hot tub on the roof which we used both days of our trip. Warm breakfasts are prepared every morning, and they are delicious! The person who was serving breakfast, whose name I regrettably forget it to write down, is extremely polite, professional, and hospitable. The area surrounding the inn is fun and although our primary reason for this stay was to visit Banff national park, we ended up spending our last day in Canmore because we found it to be extremely fun.

Lady McDonald is close to many businesses making it walkable to many dining, shopping options. It was awesome to use the rooftop jacuzzi after a long day hiking and seeing the three sisters mountains as your view. The breakfasts offered were delicious and the staff was accommodating to every need. The rooms are clean and beds comfortable. Some rooms do not have air conditioning but those are stated while booking and they do provide an oscillating fan for use. The train runs through the night but they also provide ear plugs for convenience. I wasn’t too bothered by it. Overall I would definitely stay here again if I return to the area.
