    Love staying here when we travel to Canmore. The rooms are beautiful and the views of the mountains are breathtaking. Prices are decent unless it is high tourist time. You get a fully functional modern kitchen, living room with fireplace and TV and the bedroom has a fireplace and TV too! The suite is filled with beautiful stone and wood accents and it almost makes you want to stay inside your whole time there.

    This place is interesting. I can't say for the star rating you'd get what you expect, but I can say what you get is good. Cons: 1. Customer service wasn't great - definitely not a resort quality experience. 2. Amenities - kinda sucked. Jacuzzi is not great, super brightly lit. Pool area is a but dingy. Pool is tiny! 3. No restaurant on sit but Table is walking distance at Coast Suites and super delish. Also there is a Safeway close by to get food. 4. Spa -Did not go and not sad about it. Facilities don't feel like a spa resort. 5. Our TV worked for like 5 seconds all trip - super annoying Pros: 1. Rooms are basically apts. you get your food and can cook - thru have it all including a BBQ. 2. They have a movie in the theater each night pretty nice 3. Bike rentals! 4. Great showers!!! I'd stay again bc being Banff is nuts. Parking is a joke. Better to stay here and book a tour with Brewster!

    We booked a two bedroom via Trip Advisor. We were on the second floor in the C building. The unit was clean and as described. The beds have an odd design where the sides are longer and I probably stubbed my toes at least ten times. Beware. The beds, sheets & pillows were comfortable. We did have some issues with hot water. If we took a late morning shower there was no hot water. If we took a shower at night we had plenty of hot water. It was never difficult to find a parking space. The elevator was in working order. The pool and spa were also working. It is a bit outside of the center of town but totally walkable if in good shape. The towels could be updated. They are on their last leg. The first two nights we had no noise issues. The last night we had a family above us and we heard everything. It was very difficult to sleep. The area by the elevator was never cleaned the four days we were there. The maid does come everyday. The staff is direct but not overly friendly. There are units for sale if interested. Overall not bad but for the cost the lack of hot water, the noise level and the bed makes me not give a higher review. It is the summer season and 150 anniversary so I did expect everything to be more expensive.

    I recently got married at Hive Gallery, and words cannot express how wonderful the experience was…read more Cheryl and the rest of the crew went above and beyond to make sure the day was absolutely perfect. Everything that I envisioned for the day was carried out perfectly, from the photo booth that was set up for us to the room where kids could hang out and watch Netflix. We opted to have the ceremony outside on their large balcony, and it was truly a beautiful setup, with flowers entwined over an archway above us and the mountains surrounding us. Cheryl was even so kind as to record the whole ceremony for us, as my husband's family was unable to attend, so we will have a very special piece of the day to share with them when we go visit. The staff took care of all the decor based on inspiration photos that I had provided and assembled floral bouquets for all the tables, which were absolutely beautiful. The food, which was provided by Cornerstone Catering, was delicious... the best creme brûlée I've ever had! And when it came time for dancing, the tables were moved away, the disco lights came on, and their very talented DJ went to work, playing songs that kept the dance floor busy all night! I received so many complements from people who attended, telling me how beautiful the venue and the ceremony/reception were. I would not change anything about the day, as it was executed perfectly. Thank you to the staff at Hive Gallery for making my wedding day so magical!

    My wedding reception was recently hosted at the Hive. I am writing this review to provide feedback…read moreto others considering the same, and to experience some sort of catharsis after an overall awful experience on what should have been a happy day. I have never felt so belittled, disregarded, and demeaned in a professional relationship. Before I provide insight into my negative experiences, I should recognize areas where the Hive excelled. The Hive is a beautiful facility with an interesting layout that lends itself well to smaller groups hosting events. The art work is top notch, and the décor of the wedding itself was put together beautifully. Staff members worked hard to choose, create, and set up flower arrangements and accommodate color selections. Staff members accommodated our guests with specific food restrictions, and ordered/picked up 2 meals from a local restaurant. This was going above and beyond as I expected needing to ask a family member to do this. The Hive hired an exceptional bartender to work the main bar. I had nothing but positive interactions with her and received good feedback from our guests. I will also say that our guests largely had a good time, enjoyed the venue, and had fun with the adult paint room. The Hive agreed to set up a photo booth with short notice (although this only required setting up a small digital camera on a tripod, securing a black sheet over a wall, and placing props I had already purchased on tables/hooks). The Hive was also good at adding small touches, such as placing blankets on the backs of chairs of outdoor guests for comfort. I realize my review is lengthy. In this case, the length is directly proportional to the level of difficulty we had in planning the wedding with the Hive. Due to character restrictions on Yelp, I cannot post my entire review here. I urge you to read the full thing on Trip Advisor (https://www.tripadvisor.ca/Attraction_Review-g181727-d9765610-Reviews-The_Hive_Gallery_Gatherings-Canmore_Kananaskis_Country_Alberta.html). If you do not have time, I will briefly sum up my experience. From the onset, there were communication issues. Complete information was not always provided; contradiction and inconsistency were instead the standard. I felt that the process was poorly organized and scattered. Major changes were proposed to our program, and contracts with the caterer as many as 5 days, and as little as 1 day before the wedding. Arrangements were not carried out as requested and agreed upon. I urge you to visit the Trip Advisor review for an abundance of concrete examples of my experiences.

    I want to love this place, and I certainly could, but the fact of the matter is that too many…read morethings are broken. I expect a couple of things to go wrong on a given trip but this place... Pros: +Location has great access to Banff National Park +Lots of great nearby espresso, esp. Eclipse +Great waterslide for the kids +Unique architectural layout +Underground parking +Private outdoor penthouse hot tub is sweet! +Washer/dryer is handy +Unit was clean Cons - mainly it's just all stuff in disrepair: -AirCon has 2 modes: super loud (65 db per my Apple watch) or off. Perhaps replacing the filter would make it better? Is there a way to allow the guest to adjust the fan speed? Also it doesn't work great, takes 2 hrs to get from 78F to 72F. -Screen door has large hole in it. And other door has no screen at all. -Kitchen faucet is partially broken -Downstairs enclosed shower has many fancy functions but none of them work - which makes it just a basic shower (better than none for sure) -The hot tub area has hundreds of weeds in the rockery. -The only nearby elevator has been out of service for a day+ -The only condiments provided in the kitchen are salt and pepper, normally vacation condos have a lot more -When we arrived the cushions for the outdoor furniture were in the master closet If all of these were fixed I'd go 4 or maybe 5 stars. Stair concerns: If on the 4th floor there are lots of stairs inside the unit, toddlers and elders beware Stairs are all wood - while they look nice if someone falls it's gonna hurt a lot So in short lots of unrealized potential here.

    Solid place to stay in Canmore…read more Having stayed here for 4 nights, I find this resort to have all the amenities we needed and it is conveniently located to everything, including Banff. All the common appliances are included and I especially like the indoor and outdoor spa next to lobby. I do think these suites need upgrade to the showers and the floors could be cleaner. Overall, this is a solid choice to stay at when visiting Banff. Recommend.

The resort is very mountainous looking resort on the outside, in fact very inviting. This location is on the outskirts of the busy Canmore Town. With hiking trails to town or by the river. The staff very friendly and accommodating upon checkin. There is 2 levels of underground parking for guests. Upon arriving to our suite as we entered it was like entering a apartment full kitchen with counter seating for 4 and huge table, 2 bedrooms, 2 huge bathrooms, washer and dryer, living room with fireplace, a balcony with BBQ. Looking over the courtyard and pool. Considering how full this resort was with guests, it's very quiet inside the unit. There is a cafe connected to the resort called Black Dog Cafe. Note: stay away it's very over priced below par food with very slow service. Better off going to Tim Hortons down the road for half the price and fresh hot breakfast. There is a cute Deli called Bohemian smoked meat Czech Deli across the street highly recommend! Freshly made sandwiches and soups. In the Garden centre of all places is a Tea house with gourmet Japanese breakfast or Lunch made fresh everyday called Wagashi. This resort is very well situated amongst the mountains and away from town. Will be back in the future had a fantastic stay.

    Perfect spot for our family of 5. Planty of space in the 2 bdrm unit. 2 king beds plus a pullout…read more 2 large bathrooms. Full kitchen was very convenient for breakfast and some dinners, especially for the kids. Every room has a patio with a gas grill. Pool is small but it was nice. Hotel is clean and well maintained. Staff is friendly. Our room came out to about $650 CAD/night in the middle of high season which was pretty reasonable.
