Beautiful , rustic, charming lodge in the center of the park. Easy access to all sights, great star gazing and reasonably priced. Great staff. Stay here instead if Glacier!
found parking right away and easy walk to front door. Staff all very welcoming and helpful. Room was clean and well organized. Bar and restaurants were great, super food and staff. Hotel was amazing place to stay in this wonderful park.
Very clean room with friendly staff members. Rooms are cozy. Bath room is completely renovated which makes it nice. Finally the stunning view of the lake.
The afternoon tea was lovely! For a 99 year old hotel, I think it boasts of so much charm! The staff was amazing! Rooms were not huge but they felt cozy. Will come back for sure!
The Prince of Wales is one of the grand historic lodges that still exist and whisk you away to a simpler time. If you are looking at staying in a historic property this is the place for you. The Prince of Wales compliments the park perfectly.
I loved the unexpected excellent customer service right from the entry to the front gate. Staff were very welcoming and friendly and helpful. Pretty cool history of the place.

Fantastic view, character, food and staff…. Old hotel, with its challenges, cold, with minimum finish in the rooms…
Great view as advertised, staff is great, but hotel is super dated. If there is a next time, we’d spend nights at a newer facility and just go to this hotel for the views and tea/coffee/food. Town is very small and hotel is easily accessible from anywhere in town.
Best part of stay was the history and traditional service. Room had limited comforts (rough towels and few electrical outlets, thin walls) & conveniences though bath and bedding updates appreciated. Food, service and of course the views were pleasurable.
