Pros +

absolutely amazing hotel, beautiful location, surrounded by mountains and the lake. Small cute town to road around, hike and for food. Will definitely go there again.
Beautiful hotel, amazing views lousy tiny old historic room.
Loved The Character and the Story of this Hotel. It was Absolutely Charming and the Scenic View of Waterton Lakes was Spectacular!

Cons -

The afternoon tea was very pricey. Otherwise- No Complaints.
Because of the Wind it was very cold. Our room had a baseboard heater which was so nice, especially at in the evening and night. It was kind of slow in heating up the room.
Don't expect amenities like other hotels. There are no Tv's, no pool, no hot tub, no gym, no fridges in the rooms. Buts not why you would stay at the Prince of Wales.

The hotel is a majestic 6 story structure built in in the 1920's in beautiful Waterton Lakes National Park. It sits on a hill overlooking Waterton Lake. The building is impressive. The view is impressive. The rooms are simple. Go for the history.

Location and outer appearance

Room size very small. No WiFi in room. Walls not sound proved. Noise comes from next roomsNo refrigerator. No washing sink in toilet room. After using the toilet, one has to come out to wash hands. Windows can not be shut tight, draft comes in all night.

atmosphere, architecture, location

no tv, paper thin walls, could hear foot traffic on stairs, drafty, poor mattress

The whole atmosphere was great! The room was small, but quaint, so lots of fun. We celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary here and once staffing was aware, they went above and beyond to make it a great day for us! Thanks to everyone!

The shower was small, but suited the old decor of the building!
