Stayed one night but loved the beautiful view. Staff was super nice and very accommodating. Loved the fact they loaned us bear spray while visiting because we did see several bear sightings.

Loved the staff and history of hotel. The view is marvelous. The room really needs to get some sound proofing, ear plugs don't cut it.

Amazing place, wonderful stay! Absolutely loved our 2 nights at Prince of Wales. The staff go out of their way to be helpful and kind. Food and service in lounge and restaurant were top notch. Our room was small, but certainly adequate and we were only there to sleep. Too much to do and enjoy in Waterton with just 2 days there. Will be back and would recommend.

Built in 1927 the hotel has history and elegance with a million dollar view! The evening presentations were informative and presented by staff dressed in traditional uniforms. The elevator is one of the oldest in Canada and cannot be operated independently by guests therefore a climb of 71 steps to get to our 5th floor room was required. The rooms are simple and a bit small, but that lake & mountain view made up for it. We would definitely stay again!

Its authentic heritage site experience however its not kid friendly. We opted for ugraded lake facing room but it felt extremely claustrophobic. There is no TV in room pr basic stuff like dryer. Due to the property being very old and on the hills, winds feels very noisy. Views are incredible. Food is decent but service is slow. All in all not a great option for people with familiar but if you are going for a technology free, quiet weekend its a good option.

Prince of Wales Hotel/Watertown downtown-Charming!

Loved this hotel!!! Felt like I went back in time, but with great updated bathroom's and our bed was very comfy. Beautiful view of the lake and mountains and the food was delicious. The town is a short hike away and it is so charming! Would definitely go back!!!
