We were travelling on the Via Silver and Blue train to Jasper, and picking up a motor coach tour to Vancouver. After being advised we were to be booked into the Jasper Park Lodge for the 2 nights, we checked online and not caring for the remote location, went to Travelocity and chose Whistler's Inn. We had our travel agent book it for us. We were delighted with our room, #215, once we rolled our cases across the street from the train station. The staff at the front desk was friendly and helpful. Our room was one of the most spacious and comfortable we've ever enjoyed (making comparisons with Barbados, Dominican Republic, Bermuda, Sicily, Austria, England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales, Las Vegas, Cuba, France, most provinces in Canada, and many states in the U.S. There were two queen beds and a television in the sleeping area, and a separate sitting area one step up with a wall of doors we could close. It was furnished with sofa bed, easy chairs, coffee and end tables, lamps, fireplace, another television set, bar, refrigerator, and had beautiful mountain-views from two walls of windows. We could see the train station, but heard no noise from that area or anywhere else. We thoroughly enjoyed the steam room and hot tubs on the roof just down the hall from our room, as well as the complimentary tour of the wildlife museum in the building. The Pub was handy, and although the food we ordered a little skimpy for the money, the local draught was fine. Smitty's next door was handy as well, and we walked through the town easily, being at such a central point. The only thing we were not happy with was the condition of the bedspreads; they were overdue for replacement. Our next 2 nights were spent in Lake Louise and that luxury hotel was nowhere near as appealing to us. When we return to Jasper, we will choose Whistler’s Inn and Room 215 without a doubt.
