아타바스카 호텔

Agoda listing of this hotel lacks full disclosure. It did not say that a "shared bathroom" referenced the fact that there were only two bathrooms for the entire floor of guests and that one originally was for men and the other for women, but now both were changed to be unisex. So one bathroom still had men's urinals, a toilet and a shower while the other one had a toilet and a bathtub/shower. Apparently the room that I had booked for a 4 night's stay was a tiny Spartan room with only a bed and sink with no place to open luggage or hang any clothes, no coffee maker, no fridge or no microwave. I complained to the Manager *** of our inability to stay in this room for even one night. She was calm and gracious and noted that they were fully booked. *** tried to book us in a Sister hotel, but they were also booked. Then there was a Jr. Suite that someone did not show up and she upgraded us to that room with a private bathroom. This room also had space , a closet, a siting area, a fridge and coffee maker ((but no microwave - that was down in the main lobby). In any case, the hotel is of a 1920's vintage and was purchased in June 2026 by Decore Hotels that announced a $4.5 million upgrade plan to add an elevator, air conditioning, and private bathrooms to all rooms. This upgrade must also address the outdated heating system, furniture, decor and lack of any USB A or C outlets for tech savvy travelers. In addition, the tub faucet does not easily turn on , the entry door to the room is not easy to open and the bathroom had a distinctive bad smell that we encountered for our entire stay. This hotel has the makings of a fine hotel with 21st Century updating while still retaining it's historic character. But we would not stay there again until it has been totally renovated.

The Athabasca Hotel is an iconic feature of Jasper. It still possesses the old world charm and the modern amenities are subtle. The bed was incredibly comfortable and while it was a new experience to share a communal bathroom in the hall, everything was very clean and tidy avd there was no issues when accessing the facilities. The staff were incredibly helpful and attentive. They worked ensured all of my needs were met. I highly recommend this hotel to other travellers and will definitely stay there again.
