Beautiful

Liked: Impressive, historic structure. Stunning view. The restaurant was delicious. The sweet young lady at the front desk gave us all sorts of scenic places to drive to during our stay.
Disliked: There wasn't a thing I didn't like. However, if you're looking for a modern, spa-like motel, this isn't it. If you're looking for a unique, historic place, this is a must stay

Superb

Liked: Staff were very welcoming and kinds

Magical location with eye-popping views...

Liked: The Prince of Wales is as spectacular and special as we had heard! Eye-popping location (reminded me of Hogwarts, standing out isolated on the side of the mountain) on Waterton Lake was just magical. Like most of the old national park lodges, the rooms in the PoW are not huge and the bathrooms are smallish but anyone who books at the lodges knows they will trade off luxury for history and atmosphere! We had a room that opened onto the incredible lake view. We enjoyed hanging out in the lobby with its floor-to-ceiling windows onto that view, and enjoyed dinner in the smaller of the two restaurants. The staff were all super friendly and helpful university students. So much to see in the area! We loved the nearby Bison Paddock (though the bison were shy the day we went), Cameron Lake (where we had a lesson on bears! and a picnic lunch), Red Rock Canyon Parkway and the Canyon Loop hike,
Disliked: We skipped the (pricey) buffet breakfast in the restaurant and went for coffee and a muffin each day of our stay, purchased from the tiny coffee shop. Two things were annoying. First the selection was pretty limited. Second, the young woman working the cash register asked every customer to leave a tip. Super tacky.

Exceptional

Good

Disliked: There was no beer.

I needed to stay here...

Liked: beautiful and unique hotel built in 1927. parking is complementary, the view is extraordinary. you can see this hotel from 2 miles away as it sits on a hill. the restaurant is very good as fine dining goes. there was a recycling bin in the room.
Disliked: the room was cramped, the beds were somewhat uncomfortable, there is no a/c, fridge, coffee/tea station or microwave. there wasn't a TV. that didn't bother us as there is so much to see and do. the exterior is a little beat up. it's a bit of a walk to get into the town. next time I'm in Waterton Lakes, I'll stay in town.

Amazing fun gorgeous top notch...
