This motel is really cute and has a nostalgic feel. You can tell it is a small family business and they are continually working on updates and improvements over time. It is a simple motel experience, but the rooms are clean and service is great. Their coffe/tea/hot chocolate station in the office is really great. We got a room with a small kitchen and it was a lifesaver from having to eat out every meal during our stay, as we have dietary restrictions, little kids, and Waterton restaurants are not inexpensive! I love that we could bring our dog and the fee was only $25 for the whole stay, compared to $25 per night at another hotel we looked at. The location is great, just a short walk from the lakeshore and downtown. If your looking for the lap of luxury this is probably not your place, but if you want a reasonably priced place to stay while you enjoy Waterton with your family and pet, Bear Mountain is where it’s at! We already have our next visit booked!

My husband and I (seniors) stayed here in mid-June 2023. We found the room to be clean, the beds were comfy and the staff at the desk were friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our stay here and loved the beautiful scenery in Waterton National Park.

We loved our cozy room with a kitchenette. Loved the 60’s style table and matching microwave. Friendly staff and very affordable lodging!

Loved our weekend at Bear Mountain. First time and we will be back. Room was very spacious. We had the two bedroom. Blackout blinds are great. Free coffee in the office is a nice treat. They even had oat milk. Friendly staff.

I loved my stay in Waterton. This motel is nothing fancy or swanky but it is clean, cozy, and dog friendly. They even left a welcome treat for my dog. Hotels in Banff are shooting up to $250-$350 a night so this is a great wallet friendly alternative. The staff are super upbeat and there is free coffee all day long. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Truly can not recommend Bear Mountain Motel enough!! We had a wonderful experience here! The location is fantastic and super walkable with great views. The staff and owners are wonderful and truly go above and beyond to ensure you have a great experience (including complimentary postcards!). I left items in the room and they even crossed the US boarder to get me my items back at the best rate possible. Highly recommend!! Thanks again!!!

Sweet throwback motel. It looks old but in a quaint, not trashy way! The room was comfortable and clean.

We enjoyed our extended long weekend here thoroughly! We had a 2 bedroom suite with a sofa bed and the room had enough room for our family of 5 to sleep comfortably. The queen beds were comfortable and pillows were also great (we have had some bad hotel pillows before!!), the sofa bed was a sofa bed but perfect for a 12 year old. The bathroom was pretty small, especially the shower, and a bit of a challenge to share with 5 but it worked. We loved that it was dog friendly, our pup loved to look out the screen door. The wooden chairs outside of every room are a great touch, we enjoyed our morning coffees and late night star gazing out there. The coffee, tea and hot chocolate at the reception was a great touch and overall the staff were wonderful. Location cannot be beat, across the street from the lake and just a short walk to main street, not a lot of need to drive - so relaxing! The motel warns you of on their website that it's an older motel so soundproofing isn't great, the biggest noise we had was our teenagers giggling in the bedroom nextdoor so beware of teenagers :P
