Though the Coast Canmore Hotel and Conference Centre appears pretty basic from the outside, its newly renovated interior is modern and sleek!
The rooms are bright and welcoming, with a funky wallpaper accent wall, unique light fixtures, and a large sliding door that lets in lots of natural light. It is obvious that the room interiors are not only newly updated but that a lot of thought went into maximizing the comfort and appeal of each one.
I also appreciated the room’s layout, with a small table for working on the go or enjoying room service, a small kitchenette area with a fridge and coffee machine, and a newly updated washroom.

Things to Consider Before Booking Your Stay at Coast Canmore Hotel
Though the location of the Coast Canmore Hotel and Conference Centre is convenient for accessing the highway and still within walking distance to downtown, it is not exactly in the heart of downtown Canmore.
You are separated from the downtown area by a busy road (with an easy pedestrian crosswalk) and a 10-minute walk that doesn’t offer much to do or see along the way. That being said, plenty of accommodations in Canmore require the same walk or longer! The town has strict laws in place regarding Canmore cabins and Airbnbs that mean you’ll have to do your research for that perfect place.
The newly renovated interior of the Canmore Coast Hotel is what takes this hotel from a basic stay to something a little more modern and sleek in the mountains.
