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!!!

4/10 Fair

Waterton is an amazing place to visit. The Prince of Wales hotel is a beauty to see as well. BUT DO NOT STAY THE NIGHT. The rooms are not updated to the price they are listed at, the rooms are dark and cramped, the bathrooms do not have vents so they smell, and the beds actually feel like the same beds used in the 1920s. Save yourself and your back and just find somewhere else to sleep.

The Prince of Whales Hotel is close to town but separate. The hotel staff was great, the story of the history of the hotel was amazing. The views were beautiful and hiking was wonderful in the area. It is quite windy which we weren’t expecting but that was part of the experience of a hotel on a bluff. The rooms were quaint and quiet.

8/10 Very good

Wonderful setting and good service in an historic hotel. Dining menu was limited but food service and quality was reasonable. Hotel exterior is in poor condition but inside is good - just adjust your expectations to that of a 100 year old hotel. Pricing reflects the remote location and mainly American clientele. But really, what you are here for is the setting and the views, which cannot be beat.

I liked that a Grizzle bear stopped by for a visit, hung around long enough for people to be daft and thus staff having to educate them, then the bear was escorted away by 2 rangers. It’s an amazing beautiful property in a stunning location. Go.
