We stayed in early June 2004. Beautiful views. Pool and hot tub were great. Very short drive to downtown Canmore. Staff were, for the most part, very friendly. Building is attached to the Marriott. Walking trails nearby. Not every suite has a balcony, and there is only one barbeque for the building. Internet access in gamesroom.

We've stayed at the Grand Canadian in Canmore twice; once in summer and once in winter. Both times were absolutely wonderful family vacations.
The only negative thing I can say about the resort is that it doesn't have an onsite restaurant. This is really only a minor concern though because there are many wonderful restaurants and little shops just a few minutes drive away. The location is quiet and secluded and absolutely perfect for relaxing after a busy day skiing, hiking or taking in all the fun things to do in the area. We've stayed in a two-bedroom unit both times and found them to be clean, comfortable and very nicely appointed with a full kitchen, living area and cosy gas fireplace, perfect for warming up after a day on the slopes. The kids enjoyed the games room and the heated outdoor pool (even in the snow!) and we enjoyed the outdoor hot tub. I would recommend this resort to anyone who wanted a peaceful, very comfortable place to unwind after a busy day in the mountains.
