What guests think

At Swiss Village Inn, travellers describe a basic, older roadside stay that’s often clean and comfortable for a night, with easy highway access and reasonable rates, but offset by dated rooms, thin walls, and inconsistent maintenance and amenities.

Staff interactions range from friendly and efficient check-ins to reports of rudeness and unusual credit card practices. The hot tub and sauna are a perk but temperature and availability vary, parking is easy, and there is no elevator. The location near the Trans-Canada Highway, gas stations, and fast food is convenient for park visits, though it is not downtown and some feel prices outpace the condition. Expect a simple, no-frills stopover.

For the price, this is actually a really good deal. Its easy to get too and staff are friendly. The hot tub and sauna are awesome. No breakfast or coffee in the rooms but they have instant coffee and hot water at the entry. Shower pressure is weak but overall a good experience for some snowboard/skiers.

Although I arrived late at 10:00 PM, I rang the bell at the front desk and was promptly assisted, allowing for a smooth check-in. I was guided to a room on the second floor, but since there was no elevator and my luggage was heavy, it was quite a struggle. The room and shower were fairly standard for a hotel in this price range, but they were clean. I came from Calgary, and while Morain Lake and Lake Louise are over an hour away, getting there requires driving down a long, steep stretch of highway. Those who aren’t confident in their driving skills should be cautious. On the other hand, the hotel is conveniently close to Yoho National Park on the British Columbia side, so it might be a good option for those wanting to visit both Banff National Park (in Alberta) and Yoho. Also, since you’ll be crossing between Alberta and British Columbia, keep in mind there’s a one-hour time difference, which is important when planning your schedule.

The hotel is conveniently located near the highway and very easy to get in and out of. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. Check in and out were very easy and efficient. Front desk staff were helpful and efficient. Parking on site was easy, and plugs were available for my engine block heater.

Make sure the cable TV and Wi-Fi are working when you make your booking. The hot tub was more than 40°C, or scalding!. Eventually, an older guy who may have been the motel manager showed up and turned it down. He didn’t actually believe me. It was hot until I aggressively verbally convinced him to put his hand in the water, now he understood English much better.

The room was large and spacious, with a convenient refrigerator and microwave. The accommodation has a jacuzzi but we were not able to use it; the first day it was closed and the second day it was full of people. Overall, it was a good place to stay.

I rented this "dog friendly" room. My dog immediately was trying to get something from under the tv cabinet. I reached under and aside from a thick layer of dirt, there was a piece of loose chocolate. Chocolate is poison for dogs. Automatic 1 star. There were cobwebs on the wall next to the toilet and bathroom floor was dirty. The pillows were covered in what I am assuming was a previous guest's hair. Also, the tv didn't turn on.

Super overpriced. We paid $278 on Expedia. This should have been $100 with taxes. I know it’s summer but this was ridiculous. This is like a dirty 2 star motel. Noisy people living upstairs, squished bugs in a couple different areas of the room and bathroom, the drain in the bathtub was quit plugged.

Stopped there overnight; beautiful location with decent food amenities. Our room smelled very strong of a cleaner with a lot of fragrance in it which I didn’t love. We were on the first floor but the upstairs guests were running around til about 3am so our sleep was terrible. Otherwise it was a decent place to stay.

Don’t usually write reviews… The owner is nice, the property is run down even with recent renovations it seems. Upon arriving into the room it smelled like sweaty socks, had to air it out with the AC. The AC was so loud and on top of our bed so it vibrated the walls giving me a headache. Stayed two nights and could not sleep for the life of me on the first night. The people in the hotel are not mindful of how loud they are, the sound proofing is non existent as well. Our tv didn’t work as well, we had to fix it ourselves. You have to manually lock the doors from the inside. There was hair on the towels, our beds had hair in it and what seems to be some dead skin. For the price it is ridiculous but I get that it’s in a good area, would only recommend if you are only staying a night.

I had a great stay at the Swiss Village Inn. It was affordable and easy to locate. The room was cute and cozy, you can tell they are doing upgades in all the unites which made my experience even better. The staff was friendly and kind, they helped out when the power went out and when things weren't working. I only had two outlets that worked in the whole unite but i am sure that will change once they complete all the upgrades/renovations. Worth the stay!

Room relatively clean. One light bulb out in bathroom. Initially provided with towels for 2 guests and clerk refused to provide additional set for third guest. Was rude and stated that I had only paid for 2 guests. Even after checking signed registration form, he was not very customer oriented and had a condescending attitude. He was the late afternoon clerk. Prior clerk was very nice. He told me that I was rude. Later gave my son the 3rd set of towels.

Clean, comfortable rooms for an overnight stop. We asked for 2 extra towels as the 2 provided were small and thin. We showered upon arrival after a long drive, and knew we would need 2 dry towels to shower before our early departure. We were given 2 begrudgingly, and told they would be counting them upon checkout! Then the tv volume was so low we could not hear it. Remote would not turn it up. Asked about it at the front desk, and we were again, begrudgingly given the volume control! This would otherwise be a great one night stop for those travelling, but the treatment left us feeling otherwise.

The property is quite old, aircon is noisy, i don't like the smell of the room. But the location is great its very near to Golden Skybridge, and also other sightseeing near Banff, you can save money since accommodations in Banff is gold. Staff is also nice and helpful. I hope they will consider renovating or atleast improving the motel.

Close to food providers(walking distance) Would have been nice to have more information when checking in ie. hot tub hours, where the coffee is available, where we could find a place for breakfast, where to leave full dog waste bags….. Overall enjoyed our stay and found it good for the price point.
