Post Hotel & Spa

We have been coming to the Post for over 35 years. Each stay is always more amazing than the last. We just celebrated our 55 anniversary. We so enjoyed this visit. Several outstanding staff to note. Salvina st the front desk along with Richard. And Isabella in the dining room. Finn the other bellmen. Daria at the outpost and Alicia. And housekeeping was wonderful. Thank you and looking forward to the upgrade to some of the furniture in our cabin

Thank you again

We had two nights’ stay in a suite at the Post Hotel for my birthday treat and the hotel was wonderful - snug and log-cabbiny with magical Christmas decorations. However, we unfortunately found the food to be very overpriced and pretentious, and we actually left hungry, which really spoiled an otherwise lovely experience. If you’re fortunate to have an unlimited budget and love fine wines and nouvelle cuisine then perhaps you’d disagree, but we were underwhelmed by the food. For breakfast at $24 pp, I had one slice of avocado toast and Mike had 3 smallish, plain blueberry pancakes. Tasty, but not filling when you don’t eat lunch. We could have added the $14 “buffet” which was a small continental spread. After a day of hiking in the cold and swimming lengths in the lovely pool we were really looking forward to dinner, but once seated we discovered that there we were expected to pay $145 per person for a 4 course dinner. I find it very hard to justify spending that amount of money on one dinner (without drinks) when so many people are struggling to make ends meet. So, I very embarrassedly asked to see a menu with prices which we were reluctantly given. We shared a salad (small with bitter Brussels sprout leaves) and had the duck entrees (slices of rare breast with a beet and a little cabbage) and the bill still came to well over $200 with a drink each. The booking was also weird - we could only get a 5:45pm slot and the place was almost empty. The rest of the experience was excellent - our leaky Jacuzzi tub was fixed immediately and our suite had a bathroom each and a wood fire. We’d did wish that we’d asked for a suite at the back as our room overlooked the parking lot and the trains went by all night, but that would have been a bigger issue in summer. If I was in charge of the hotel, I’d just change the dining experience - maybe serve the 4 course meal, but also have an a la carte menu with lovely, hearty, warming foods like stews and soups. Also, less people are drinking alcohol these days, so I’d also add more non-alcoholic, creative drink options. Essentially it’s a lovely, old-fashioned, charming log-cabin hotel and i think it should stick with lovely old-fashioned, delicious, hearty, winter food - then it could be perfect!

My wife and I stayed here in early Oct (just before the end of the season) and couldn’t have been happier - it was one of the highlights of the trip!

The rooms are a little dated that’s for sure, but that adds to the charm of the place, and they have a lovely setup with the fireplace in the room.

The location is well suited to get to Lake Louise and Moraine lake too.

The most impressive part though is the service, the food in both the main restaurant and the fondue restaurant was incredible and we lucked out have Marcel as our waiter both times who was excellent as a server but also as a conversationalist giving us tips in the area too. Add onto that the fact we also had one of the best bottles of wine we’ve ever had after taking the somelier Will’s advice.

Couldn’t recommend it enough!

My husband and I stayed here during our wedding with Rocky Mountain Elopements. We had a wonderful stay and highly recommend this hotel. The breakfast in the dining room each morning was delicious, and we loved dinner and drinks at the Outpost Pub. Dinner in the dining room is for those looking for a classy fine dining experience.

We purchased the romance package, which included chocolate covered strawberries and champagne in our room, a couples massage, and dinner in the dining room. We loved our experience and were very happy with our room which featured a large tub and fireplace. It is an older hotel, but we found it very comfortable and beautiful. The front desk staff were very friendly and happy to answer questions and give recommendations.

As for the spa, we couldn't be happier! I had my first massage there, and Christa was wonderful. She made me feel relaxed, and helped all my anxiety melt away. My husband has chronic pain, and has had many massages, and Xueli Sun was fantastic. She was able to give him precise pressure where he needed it most and he left saying it was the best massage he's ever had.

Wow! Such a great hotel! We can't recommend this place enough. The room was amazing (Room 202; tremendous mountain view, spacious room, amazing tub!) Everyone we spoke with was helpful and polite and made sure our stay was great. Complimentary tea was great and relaxing. Make sure to check out the library! Very cool space to relax and read after a long day on the mountains and lakes. Will definitely be back!
