Bear Mountain Motel

$ | 208 Mount View Rd., Waterton Lakes National Park, AB, T0K 2M0, Canada

This classic, 1960s motel offers a variety of affordable accommodations that have painted cinder-block walls, wood-beam ceilings, and small bathrooms with shower stalls. All rooms have cable TV and mini-fridges; some rooms have kitchenettes and air-conditioning, and some are designated as pet-friendly. On-site amenities include free coffee, tea, and hot chocolate (available in the office) and a picnic area with barbecues. Low prices used to attract the party crowd, but a well-enforced "quiet after 10 pm rule" has made this property family-friendly.

Pros

  • Most affordable accommodation in Waterton
  • Clean, comfortable, and very basic
  • Family-run motel right in townsite

Cons

  • Noise can be an issue with the old cinder-block construction
  • Closed in winter
  • No in-room coffee or tea (available in main office)
