Itinéraire vers cette adresse
"Business Trip"
This location is excellent. Great staff, great customer service, breakfast was fantastic. Close to a number of restaurants and shopping. Location is perfect for casual walking and sightseeing. Very friendly community.
"Fantastic stay for a group!"
What a great place for a group booking! Trevor at the front was amazing and so helpful. They were able to put most of our team on the same floor which was great. The pool was a blast. Breakfast was a nice addition especially with trying to get our little ones out the door for a game each morning. The Sunset room for a team pizza party worked out perfectly. Overall I would be thrilled to find a reason to come back here again!
"Great stay"
Our kids hockey team stayed here for a tournament. Very accommodating, great breakfast. We are considering coming back in the summer for a family vacation we enjoyed it so much. Cleaning staff was always mopping up around the pool entrance to keep it safe. Good work.
"Great location!"
Very clean hotel in a great location! Walking distance to all the shops and to the lake and park which is lovely! We were fortunate to have a complete view of the lake and the lighthouse. Great free breakfast which has enough variety to suit everyone.
"Perfection Plus!"
My husband and I used to travel the world, but since we can no longer do that, we needed to find a great getaway within our province of Alberta: Affordable, comfortable, attractive, and convenient. This is the perfect place. 1) Staff are so friendly and accommodating that rating them would put them off the charts. 2) Free breakfast! Delicious and generous, but wait till you see the breakfast room. Cozy and across the street from the lake and lighthouse. 3) Ample parking. Very convenient if struggling with a handicapped person. 4) A salt water pool! With a whirlpool! What a delight. Clean as can be. 5) Rooms are spacious and well laid out. (We like an upper corner room for the view of the lake and the lighted lighthouse at night.) 6) Beds and mattresses matter to me so much so that I bring along my own memory foam twin mattress. Never used it at all. No need to since the hotel's mattresses are very comfortable. 7) Easy access to the lake for great summertime views, sunrises, sunsets. Fantastic walking trails. 8) Perfect location for day trips. Try the old creamery museum in Markerville. Or make a trip to nearby Red Deer, just 15 minutes away, for shopping at all big brand stores. 9) I have saved the best for last. You will be a few minutes from one of the best diners in the entire province: Lokal Kitchen. We would drive from Edmonton just to eat there. The fried chicken is soooo good. And any breakfast will satiate even the biggest appetite.
"Wedding"
My husband and I got married at the Best Western and it was absolutely perfect in every way. The staff were incredibly kind and helpful, the rooms were clean, the venue site was everything we needed and the food was delicious. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to stay in Sylvan Lake.
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
So glad you had a great time at your wedding at the hotel. We sure enjoyed having you and we are always appreciative that we did a good job. Please come and stay with us again maybe an anniversary !!!
"Sylvan wedding"
Perfect location for lakeside wedding. Hotel very accommodating for a pet loving family event, lounge games and group socializing. Event room worked well for a reception and staff on task with pleasure. We also want to know the name and model of the mattress manufacturer because we loved the sleep we had on theirs.
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for the review. So enjoyed your group staying here and your wedding was beautiful, so pleased it all worked well for you at our hotel. Simmons is the manufacturer of our beds.
"Location location!"
Beautiful location, across the street from the lake and walkway! Close to many options for food and beverages! The hotel was very clean and had an amazing breakfast included. Our room was very comfortable and clean.
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for the great review. We are very lucky to offer our guests the great location and we strive every day to make everyone have a great experience. Hope to see you again!!
"Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake Stay Sept 2022"
Our stay was beyond exceptional and so importantly clean and it was like "comfort food" to us and we did not want to leave. The staff and complimentary breakfast and the room made us feel like royalty. The linens were silky smooth and clean and the jetted tub was so awesome and relaxing as we are old school and still love taking baths.
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
What a great review it is always nice to hear back from our guests that they had a great time. Hope you can visit again!
"Great Stay!"
Great service booking, check in and out and through the stay. Rooms are large functionally set up. The entire hotel is clean and well maintained. Great location to the beach across the street, restaurants and shops all close and walking distance. Enjoyed the stay!
"Perfect stay at Sylvan Lake"
The front desk staff go beyond to make your stay enjoyable. They are super friendly and do a great job. My kids enjoyed the pool and fitness centre every day. Breakfast had a nice variety of items. Rooms were clean. Will definitely stay again
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
It is nice to hear that you enjoyed your stay and that we met your needs, as we strive to make everyone's stay the best it can be! Look forward to your next stay.
"Fabulous everything"
My family spent 3 nights for a little getaway and I was very impressed with the hotel and the staff. Upon entering the hotel, the lobby is very clean and inviting. Check-in was swift and the front desk personnel were very friendly. The room was spacious and clean. The beds were very comfortable! Each staff member we encountered was polite, friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend this hotel and I most certainly would stay there again!
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. It is always helpful to hear that what we strive for each day is being recognized. We hope that you stay again with us soon.
"Great hotel and location!"
Friendly staff, very clean and well kept hotel, rooms are new and modern, breakfast is awesome! Trevor at the front desk is awesome! The pool and gym are top notch! The breakfast food/selection is great!
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for complimenting our hotel and recognizing the work the front desk staff provides. We sincerely hope you stay with us again.
"Excellent services"
Every thing was very good. Location is good but it now faces a much taller residence hotel across the road which blocks the view of Sylvan Lake. It is situated along the main road with lots of restaurants and shops. A hot and cold breakfast is provided although it appeared that there was no gluten free items (pastries, breads, waffles, cereals) available for those who require gluten free items. The bedrooms were spacious, well appointed and clean. including a microwave and coffee maker which is not so good for making multiple cups of coffee or tea. A thermostatically controlled electric kettle would be useful. On the whole Best Western lives up to its name -" Best".
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review, we enjoy hearing from all our guests their thoughts and ideas. Hope you visit again.
"Awesome hotel with awesome staff."
This hotel from our check in to checkout was awesome. The staff was very helpful and kind to both us and all the children in hotel. The location was good for all of our activities. The room was clean and comfortable and quiet. We will definitely be visiting again.
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank for being so kind with your review. We look forward to your next visit.
"A Wonderful Water Experience Get Away in Sylvan Lake"
We enjoyed immensely our short stay at the Best Western Plus Chateau Inn in Sylvan Lake. The hotel is in close proximity to the waterfront that is a plus for anyone seeking fun on the water during the summer! The rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable. The staff are very professional, friendly and accommodating. Special thanks to front desk staff including Anne, Trevor and Tammy for their professional assistance! The breakfast is one of the best hotel breakfasts that we have experienced. We look forward to returning to this hotel for another great experience!
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your kind review it is always nice to hear that we are doing the best we can. Look forward to your return visit.
"Quick stay."
We were there for a wedding reception. Very well received at the reception desk. The room was spacious and clean. Great location near beaches. The room for the wedding reception was a perfect size opening on a terrace. The serving staff was very professional and friendly.
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. We enjoyed your wedding reception and glad you had a great time.
"Great Front Staff!"
The front staff at this location were extremely friendly and the breakfast was great (although very busy for Canada Day weekend). The pool was small and crowded but in good condition otherwise. None of the weight machines in the gym worked; there is cardio equipment but the morning I went to use it there was already one individual on the treadmill. The other 2 cardio machines face directly to the treadmill (literally side-by-side and right in front due to the small space), making it uncomfortable to exercise if someone is already using the treadmill. My advice for the gym would be to get rid of the equipment that doesn't work and spread out the cardio machines; fix or get 1 multi-purpose weight machine to allow for space for the cardio equipment. As it's summer, most mornings I ran along the lake which is a short but beautiful run. Great location; really can't beat the proximity to the beach, especially with a free breakfast included.
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for review and we will definitely take your comments and try to improve. So glad you are pleased with location.
"Great stay in Sylvan Lake"
Enjoyed my stay and breakfast in Sylvan Lake . Clean room, fridge, microwave, Keurig machine. Nice view of lake with large window. Could hear some traffic noise which I imagine could be worse in summer as it is right on Lakeshore Drive, but otherwise great. Will be back!
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. Your compliments will be appreciated with all the staff, always nice to hear great things. Look forward to your next visit.
"Great hotel for families."
Check in and out was super easy. Staff at the front desk were so friendly. Room was really clean and even saw staff disinfecting a door down the hall the next morning. Breakfast next morning was surprisingly decent! Love the location and would recommend this hotel.
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for the review. It is always nice to hear that we are doing or job and people recognize our efforts. Please stay again soon.

"My home away from home!"
This hotel is in a great location in Sylvan Lake, right across from the water at the park. The service is excellent, the pricing gives you good value for your money and a beautiful little village where you can be active or quiet as you wish. The staff all seem to enjoy their jobs and treat guests well!
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review

Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review

"Exceptionally great hotel"
We stayed with our hockey team & the staff went above & beyond to accommodate us & were extremely helpful. The bed was probably the most comfortable bed I've ever slept on in a hotel. The location was also amazing within walking distance to many restaurants, bars & shopping.
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for the great review! So glad that you enjoyed your stay with us and always great to hear that we all met your expectations. Look forward to your next visit.
"Great hotel"
We stayed in this hotel when we were stranded because of bad road and weather. They were very accommodating and helpful at short notice. Wonderful staff. Full hot breakfast in the morning was very much appreciated.. Will definitely stay there again.
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Glad we could accommodate you when you needed a place to stay. Look forward to your next stay!
"Great location, very clean & accommodating hotel!"
Wouldn't hesitate to book again whenever in Sylvan Lake- great location, excellent customer service, very clean hotel! Staff was very flexible - although the breakfast was technically done at 10am, they were very accommodating to continue to bring out food (ex- waffle batter), for our hockey players that slept in and didn't show up until after 10am. Much appreciated!
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for the review! We try hard everyday to make everyone's stay the best it can be. Hope you stay with again soon.
"Hockey team hotel madness!!"
Our stay was a complete nightmare !! Hockey children were allowed to run unsupervised on two floors from the moment we checked in until after 10:00pm. The staff were oblivious to the chaos, and were unwilling to stop the madness until after 11:00pm. So, they had the run of the building until then. Screaming, yelling children running down the halls, up the stairs down the elevator and repeat for hours and hours!!! Closed the pool because of feces, no food at the breakfast room because the teams took it all, no coffee, barking dogs...total nightmare of a hotel stay!!!!
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. Sorry to hear that we could not meet your expectations!
"Friendly, Clean and Convenient"
Best Western Pulus Chateau Inn at Sylvan Lake has a friendly staff, a clean environment, and it is close to all the amenities of Sylvan Lake! Their morning breakfast has a great selection and clean diniing area. Definitely reccommend.
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for the great review. We do strive every day to keep things very clean and to treat all guests in a friendly manner, thank you for recognizing our efforts. Hope you come and visit again soon.
"Housekeeping not good"
The jet tubs weren't cleaned properly. When you used them sediments were in the water. Also the sink wasn't washed the whole time I was there, the housekeeping doesn't remove trash, and the last night I stayed the housekeeping didn't make my bed for whatever reason. Got kind of old really quick.
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. We take everyone seriously and these items will be addressed. Hope you give us another chance to meet your expectations.
"Comfortable beds"
The hot tub was out of order and they told me before I booked and gave us a discount. The bed was so comfortable, the room had a jetted tub so bring some bath bombs, the staff was nice and the breakfast, sausage, omelets, waffles with whip cream and berries, and more.
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. It is always nice to hear that we are doing our job and making your stay the best it can be. Look forward to your next stay.
"Great place great view great location!"
This hotel is not the Taj Mahal but would certainly do! Great location, good parking, front desk staff were fantastic. Rooms were very clean and everything we needed was there. Breakfast was served to us and for a fast breakfast it certainly tasted good!
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review! We appreciate everyone who does a review so we can gauge how we are doing or how we can improve. Our location is close to many amenities that a guest would need when staying with us. Thanks for recognizing the Front Desk staff and we hope to have you stay with us again soon.
"Awesome hotel"
Check in was speedy and my ID and credit card was given back to me sanitized, the room was spacious and clean. Breakfast was an awesome value, Covid protocols were exceeded which made me feel safe. Karen is quite a gem
"Great nights stay near the Lake!"
We had a wonderful getaway with our granddaughter at the Best Western in Sylvan Lake, Alberta. This hotel is across the street from the Lake. It's the perfect location for friendly walks along the lake, and is close to a huge playground which our granddaughter loved!
"Gluten Free Breakfast"
Included in the nightly rate was breakfast. One of us needs a Celiac GF diet. The staff in the breakfast area appeared very knowledgable about Celiac diets and indicated what was GF in the general buffet, what may have been contaminated and what they could make us from the kitchen in the back. They had a dedicated GF toaster in the back kitchen as well. The breakfast was delicious and worry free. The hotel was very clean, nicely appointed and the staff pleasant and helpful. Would definitely return.
"Best Western Plus in Sylvan Lake"
Staff and room quality were very good. Love the location of the hotel in proximity to the beach and other amenities. Rooms are very clean and the housekeeping staff do a very good job. Would recommend this hotel to all!
"Amazing hotel!"
Excellent value, great location and awesome staff! Everyone was very nice and extremely helpful. Anne in particular was amazing. The included hot breakfast also was very good with lots of options. Rooms are basic and clean and the WiFi was perfect. Will definitely be back. Highly recommend for families.
"Can't say enough good things."
Incredible staff! The customer service went above and beyond. Me and my mom needed a getaway. It's been a rough year for so many. This experience was one I'll remember. The ladies at the front desk were so kind, so happy. Everyone seemed to be smiling all the time. It just gave off a great vibe. We can't wait to come back next year. Such a clean, beautiful hotel right across from the lake! I highly recommend this hotel!
"holiday with grand daughter and family"
I hate to tell you how great this hotel is for location because I would love to keep it a secret. It is in a perfect location in Sylvan within easy walking distance to the beach, the stores. the recreational activities that families would enjoy. It couldn't be in a better location.
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Yes our location is very handy for all things beach and restaurants. Thank you for your review.
"Excellent hotel choice."
This hotel was an excellent choice for a mini holiday. The hotel is centrally located to the restaurants and shops and across the street from the lake. My wife and I were very happy with our room and that our requests were met. Professional and friendly staff member at check in. Breakfast was excellent and the staff member helping was awesome! Would highly recommend!
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. It is always nice to share with the staff that their hard work and dedication is notice. Thanks and please visit again.
"Very rude staff upon check out"
Very rude staff upon check out, almost all the equipment in the gym was broken. The room smell like throw up and mould. I requested a little bit later check out because we got there very late and she would only give me 30 minutes which I found was extremely rude when I saw other people leaving early in the morning
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. Sorry that you did not enjoy your visit with us and I most certainly will look into your views and try to correct.
"Clean, friendly, great location"
A great pet friendly, family hotel and I was travelling with neither but not bothered by either. Loved the location at the end of "the strip." Best view rooms are 315, 415 and down on that side of the building on each floor. Enjoy!
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Nice to read that you enjoyed your stay. We look forward to your next visit.
"Wonderful place"
Super clean. Great staff. Awesome location for Sylvan Lake. You park the car and can walk anywhere from the hotel. I woudl stay here again for sure. The breakfast was really good as well. Lots of good choices both cold and warm.
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Your review was greatly appreciated. Being right across from the lake makes it a great place to come with your family to enjoy all that Sylvan has to offer. Nice to hear that you enjoyed your breakfast. We hope you visit again.
"Average at best"
We decided to use this hotel because it was available short notice. The hotel was decent. The pool was absolutely disgusting. Breakfast was looked ok. We still ate out. Room was clean. Tv was small with no HD channels.
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
We appreciate each and every review so we can see how our guest perceived their stay. Sorry it did not meet your expectations but hope you come again.
"Not like other Best Westerns"
We booked a getaway for our 30th anniversary. The room was tired and in need of an upgrade. The toilet seat was loose. The worst part was coming back to find that there was no maid service and wouldn't be. How is that for an anniversary - but they didn't bother to change the room rate. We still paid full price but didn't get full service. The air conditioner barely worked. They are in a prime location, but they need to upgrade badly. We have stayed there in the past and had a better room. Not sure why this one was poor. Breakfast was horrible and not enough seating. Terrible overall experience compared to other Best Westerns we've stayed at. Sad that it was our special trip.
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review as do we take serious each and everyone we get. We are trying hard daily to give the experience that we know everyone deserves. We do hope to be back up and running with daily maid service as rules and staffing will allow. Thanks again for the review.
"Nice Hotel"
Great location and nice staff. warm breakfast and free wifi and free parking are bounces. the staff even let us check in early and they were super nice and accommodating. will definitely come back again.
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
So nice to hear that you enjoyed your stay and will come back and visit again. The staff and I always appreciate our guests noticing how we care about each and everyone. Look forward to your next stay.
"Relaxation with No Stress"
In the past, we've stayed in many hotels. I must say this Best Western has amazing staff. We found the staff caring, friendly, compassionate and helpful. Best Western staff are "people who care about people"!
"Terrific Place Stay!"
This is a pet-friendly, great gym, nice pool, and close to the lake!... this is an awesome place to stay! Friendly staff and great service! 10/10! I highly recommend the Best Western Plus Chateau Inn!

"Exceptional!"
We usually travel at least once a week and checked in to hotels if it's more than 150 km away from home (in Calgary). We been through lots of different hotels both domestic and international but this one 'Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake' is unique and more feels like home due to the inside and outside feels. The hotels guestroom is sparkling clean inside and outside. There covid prevention job is stunning as they will always sanitized everything you touched and they touched (like your ID or pen) instantly in front of your eyes. You feel very safe and secure on the spot and you can feel by heart that they genuine care for their business and their client. They have a free pack bag of ready to go breakfast as hot breakfast option are now almost gone due to pandemic. I recognized one of their receptionist named 'Jackie' as she goes beyond our expectation. She is unique and very helpful towards their customer in unique way. I wish all guest relation officer are like her! The hotel free wi-fi is very strong too. The location of the hotel is perfect and very close to the beach and to everything! We would definitely comeback and we highly recommends this hotel to everyone seeking for hotel stay satisfaction!
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your amazing review. During these times we greatly appreciate your acknowledgment of our efforts to protect our guests and staff. Jackie and the rest of the staff try hard everyday to meet the expectations that are expected of them and to do it in a kind manner. We look forward to your next visit.
"Nice location"
The location was great to walk around, lots of restaurants and pubs are nearby. It did seem a bit loud with vehicles at times from the room, but I didn't notice it when I was sleeping. Because of Covid, I was unable to use the pool or fitness facilities.
Sue Fisher, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. We are trying everyday to meet the protocols for covid, also making everyone feel welcome and safe. Hope you stay again.

Great location, Nice amenities, Free breakfast. The only think I will change is the breakfast hours, maybe from 7 to 10. The front desk staff was very helpful and they were always available when needed. The cleaning staff was also great.

"Excellent hotel in Sylvan Lake"
I've stayed twice at the BW Chateau Suites in Sylvan Lake. Once many years ago and again this week. The hotel has maintained the same excellent service and quality that I enjoyed many years ago. The rooms are an excellent size, very clean and we had a beautiful view of the water. This will be my hotel of choice in Sylvan.

"A Smile in the Dead of Winter!"
After driving and travelling for 2 hours in the dead of winter from Barrhead and just wanted to make it safe to my room in Sylvan Lake...Tammy at th efron desk was a welcome smile and friendly face! The moment you walk and the amazing breakfast set up...you will NOT be dissapointed. Plus...for the Price point and scenery around the property this Best Western Plus is well worth the journey off the QEII.

Stayed 1 night. Dinner and a movie. Beach was all decorated and lit up. Good dining choices. Had a nice experience. Sylvan is quite in winter compared to summer. Will definitely do this trip again. It's also an excuse to go to the Sylvan Cheese Factory...Gouda!

"Disappointing for a Best Western "
My beautiful wife and I were looking to sneak away for an evening and thought the new Best Western in Sylvan Lake would be a great choice. Right on the Main Street with a King bed “ Lake View “ and a jacuzzi... we were very excited to try out a new place. It was easy enough to find, plenty of parking out back. Brand new building, very friendly staff ...... wow the room was very small, this was the upgrade ?????? Very disappointing, yes a Lake view, when you stand at the window, can't sit and look out the window at the lake. Very clean and new .... but very basic and minimal to say the least. I have stayed in a Super 8 hotel in remote Northern Alberta that was 10 X better. It was a Jet tub not a jacuzzi tub... one of the smallest tubs I have ever seen. This room was very disappointing to say the least... it looked like a great place, pool and everything else, we just never used or even looked at those things... we got up in the morning and went downstairs to take advantage of the Free Hot Breakfast..... no eggs, no hash browns, a couple sausages, again very disappointing. We waited for some more eggs, Etc to be brought out, the guy brought enough eggs for one person so we decided the wait was just not worth it... we were very disappointed with the entire stay... I can't see staying at this place again. Considering that Sylvan Lake is filled with Million dollar mansions and is a must go to place during the summer this is a hotel that I would expect to find in Alix or Coronation.... I can't imagine what the basic rooms have if this was one of the best rooms..

"Business Retreat"
I organize many business retreats for work and most recently we stayed at the Best Western Plus Chateau Inn in Sylvan Lake. The stay was wonderful. The rooms were nice and clean. The staff was very friendly. And the hotel is in a great location, giving beautiful views of the lake. I would most definitely bring a group back to this location. Everyone enjoyed it!

"fall lake trip"
this hotel has always been a pleasure to use. the rooms are great and really clean. the pool and hot tub are outstanding and looked after by the staff. the breakfast is the hit of the stay with fresh fruit, fresh, hot cooked eggs, breads and yogurts. you can't go wrong staying at the facility.

"Soak, sleep, relax"
I've been coming to this hotel since it was built, and I'm pleased to say that not much has changed. The beds are still extremely comfortable, the soaker- jet tub is fantastic, and I've never experienced problems accessing the internet, with speeds fast enough for HD with Netflix. Have been here many times, and look forward to coming back many more.

"Work Related Stay over."
Had to leave Lethbridge at 4:30AM to make Edmonton Auction by 9:30AM. Then off to Westlock and over to Barrhead. After my meetings and risk of doing any more driving I made a reso at the Best Western Plus in Sylvan Lake. From the minute you arrive to the amazing Breakfast in the looby the next day I was NOT disappointed. My room as great with a Jetted Tub and King Size bed overlooking the Lake Lighthouse in Rotary Park. Being from Nova Scotia it really made me feel a sense of calm and home. Had Not been to that town in a while and walked along the waterfront and was in love with the Fall Colours. Nice aaroment of places to eat close by and a craft brewery across the street. It may be a few KM's off the QEII but well worth the trip in. Lakeshore Drive is something else. It will not be the last time I stay there...That's for sure! Looking forward to my next trip north already.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Well what a nice review!!! It is so nice to hear that after a long day you could feel at home at our hotel. We look forward to your next stays.
"Nice hotel and good location"
We were able to check into this hotel early, which we really appreciated. The hotel's location is ideal, and is right across from the lake. The breakfast was fantastic with lots of good options. Pool and hot tub were nice. Unfortunately, the hotel was quite loud and I was awoken by yelling. It seems like it gets kind of rowdy there on the weekends.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. Yes unfortunately on weekends it can be a bit nosier but hope that does not deter you from visiting again as it is not always loud. Glad you enjoyed the location and our breakfast options. See you again.
"Great place to stay"
nice and friendly staff. Clean and a great breakfast.Lots of amenities. The rooms are nice and clean as well all areas of the hotel inside and out. The beds were nice and comfortable. Quite and not noisy, rooms fairly sound proof.
"The best Hotel in entire Sylvan Lake!"
The Hotel, Excellent!!! The location is awesome, rooms are spacious and very well kept. Its always a wonderful experience at this hotel. Breakfast is awesome!!! Lots of parking and safe. The staff is also the best.

"Best Hotel In Sylvan Lake"
Although i have heard it can be quite rowdy on the weekends in Sylvan Lake, whenever we have stayed during the week, it's been clean, quiet, comfortable, reasonably priced, terrific free breakfast and all day free coffee. the amenities such as the pool, hot tub and exercise room were well used by the wife and I. they even have a coin operated washer and dryer which we also used, and if you're out of detergent or fabric softener, they appear to be able to provide some! located across the street from the beach and just down the block from all the restaurants. what more could you ask for? this is our 2nd time staying here and we will come back again !
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your comments. So glad we could meet your expectations. We are situated very close to everything and try hard to supply to our guests what ever they might need to make their stay very comfortable. Hope the next time you stay with us you are equally impressed. See you next time!!!
"One night visit with our dog!"
Perfect location and an excellent hotel. They welcomed our golden doodle and genuinely enjoyed her, even giving her special treats! The full breakfast was excellent: waffles, eggs, yogurt, fruits, sausages, bacon etc. They always had tea and coffee in the lobby and even cookies. The room was spotless, as was the poo; and hot tub. Although it is not lakefront, it is directly across from the beach and easy walking distance to a selection of bars and restaurants.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
What a nice review, so thank you. We do enjoy hearing from people who recognize our efforts and location. We are a very pet friendly hotel with many of our staff loving pets as much as I am sure you do. We have great walk-ability to various beach activities and restaurants. Thanks again, hope you visit again soon.

Visit Sylvan Lake 21 - July 22 and I stayed in this hotel, very clean facilities, I got room 417 (recommended) overlooking the lake, the staff always greeted me with a smile, breakfast were a very rich omelette, sausages , waffles and coffee. I will definitely return to this hotel very soon, I am from Latin America and in this place I felt the Canadian hospitality, blessings to the team.

"Beautiful view of the lake"
BW Plus on Lakeshore Drive is always a great place to stay for a few days at the beach. We have stayed here a few times and we will be back. Breakfast is good and a great way to start the day. The lakeside view rooms are amazing!
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review

"May Long In Sylvan Lake"
Pet friendly King sized room was great. The lady that checked us in seemed like a great person. Ordered from the local Boston Pizza, and it was terribly late and cold when we got it, don't eat there !!

Thank you for your review. The staff and I are very happy to hear that we met your expectations and we would like to welcome you back.
"Good but better sound proofing needed"
I stay 100 nights per year in hotels as I travel almost every week for business. My wife and I decided to stay here as we had learned a promotional free night stay from Best Western. The room was nice and they gave us a free upgrade to a room with a view of the lake which was aporeciated. Everything was clean and the staff were friendly. The free breakfast was good and we enjoyed our stay. However, the rooms weren't very sound proof and we heard the people in the next room talking after they returned to their room late that night. I assumed they were staying in the room beside us but can't be sure. I know noise is a deal breaker for some travellers so I thought I'd better give you all the heads up. :)
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. So glad that most of your stay was good. We are sorry that other guests noise was a disturbance for you and glad you brought it to our attention. Hope you will consider us again.
"Love Best Westerns"
We stayed in Sylan to check out apartments and condos. The check lady that nite was so very helpful. It was April 24 2019. We were so tired. We drove 18 hrs. Jetted tub was the best. Beds pillows great. Best Westerns have never let us down. Try to always stay at Best Westerns. Love love love em.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your pleasant review. So glad that we made your stay a great one. Please stay again soon.
"Great hotel, service and breakfast"
Our room was very spacious and clean, the pool was surprisingly warm and we enjoyed the hot tub. The hot breakfast was the next morning was a real treat with a view of the lake. The meeting room was also very nice. I would definitely recommend the hotel.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay and found our hotel a great place to stay. We hope you visit with us again.
"Spacious rooms with all amenties"
Hockey team stayed during a weekend tournament and hotel very accomodative to families and kids as they used the facilities and informal gathering points on hotel floors. In sharp contrast to previous visits to other chains that forced parents to sign documents restricting activities of children in hallways and fitness facilities/pools contained on site. Would highly recommend as a family friendly hotel that treats kids right!
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review for your teams recent stay. Our goal is to make it extremely friendly and welcoming for every guest and we are pleased that you noticed we live by our goals. Please spread the word and we look forward to your next stay with us.
"Great staff, very clean hotel, and very well located"
I enjoyed my stay in Sylvan Lake very much. Our conference at the Best Western Plus, was great. The meals provided were enjoyed by all. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Great location to walk into town and or enjoy the walkways by the lake.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review

"What a great place to stay!"
I was at the hotel on business and ended up staying there for 30 days. The staff is great and super helpful. The rooms are spacious and very comfortable. I would highly recommend this facility, for any stay in Sylvan Lake.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your nice review. We appreciate everyone's review that helps us better acheive our goals.
"Awesome Service"
The service and quality of this BW were excellent. I recommend this hotel for groups. We were there for a hockey tournament and the hotel was perfect. It is also pet friendly which was nice. The staff were friendly and very helpful.
"Good service, good breakfast, terrible sheets"
The front end staff were terrific. The breakfasts were quite good and the lady making sure the buffet was in good order was happy and friendly. The bed was comfortable but those polycotton sheets have got to go! Crawled into bed and it was like mini lightning bolts racing across the sheets. Polyester doesn't breathe and it traps heat so staying a good temperature at night was difficult.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review and we take all comments to heart and have taken notice on your thoughts on the linens. I will also pass on to the staff that they are being appreciated which is always good to hear. Hope you come and stay again with us .
"Family Reunion"
Our overall age range would have been 2 years to 75 years. Little ones can get loud and messy, but staff were prepared with over the top solutions. We knew going in what the limitations were and what was expected. The results were that we all came away with a most positive experience! We will be back, that's a promise!
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for the great comments but your review points were only ones. Just wondering if there were problems that we can talk about to make your next stay better. Please contact the hotel so we can discuss.
"Lovely destination in the heart of Sylvan Lake"
I absolutely loved our time here this past October. We stayed for 4 nights and we're very well taken care of. My little guy accidentally left a car door open on rental car so staff told me the next day, it was left open, but they closed it for us and made sure it was safe. Our stay included free breakfast which was a reason for my teenagers to get out of bed before 10am. Absolutely delicious. Everything is walking distance to this hotel and there is a Shopper's Drug Mart & liquor store right next door. Across the street and down about 200m is a fabulous restaurant called Wingin' It that my boys were begging me to go back to again. We'll be back! Thank you!
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. The staff and I always love to hear that we are achieving our goals of great customer service. We are in a great location near to restaurants, shopping and hockey arena. Look forward to your next visit.
"Highly Recommend - fabulous staff"
We stayed here in August for 6 nights. We had a very comfortable and relaxed stay which was all down to the wonderful staff who were all very friendly and helpful. We were always greeted with a 'Hi' and asked if we had a good day whenever we returned from a trip. Rooms were clean and comfortable. The hotel is in a perfect position opposite Sylvan Lake you walk to the lake and everywhere. Car parking free and plentiful. Breakfast was a buffet with a good selection of hot and cold choices. Would highly recommend. Good for a stay enrolee either to or back from Calgary airport.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review

This hotel is a beautiful hotel on main street directly across from the lake. It is within easy walking access to the beach and restaurants. The hotel is very clean and the staff keep it very nice. We enjoyed the continental breakfast as well and the dining area is very cheery and spacious!

"Amazing Hospitality"
Just left after 15 night stay. Amzing hospitality. Clean rooms. We loved the Jetted tubs and King Size Beds. Ann and her front desk staff looked after us very well and treated us like family! Amazing location and overall a fantastic experience. Thanks Ann for taking such good care of us! Truly east coast hospitality! :)

"Good clan hotel"
Overall Clean hotel. Had a small mishap at breakfast but overall a pleasant expereince. Is located quite close to the Sylvan lake , though we were on a trip from Jasper so we did not get time to visit the lake since we were travelling early morning.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for taking your time to review our hotel. Sorry to hear you had a mishap a breakfast but sound like it got resolved. All the staff here try hard everyday to make everyone's stay enjoyable so hope you come to visit again.
"Very Short Staffed"
A complete 180 from our last experience here. Obviously staff is key. They appear extremely short staffed. Our room was not cleaned on our first night's stay. We would have liked to use the BBQ on site - patiently waited while attendant checked in new quests, regardless of whether they were there before us. Finally gave up on the attendant checking whether it was possible - as he never did let us know and did not call for help. (Also annoying - he checked in two males and notified them that their room only had a King Bed - they said it was fine, then he asked if they needed a cot, to which they replied -no, he stated it was company policy to double check!)
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your comments. Sorry to hear about your experience and I have looked into the situation and can assure you that it is not our policy for anyone to feel this way. We have taken appropriate steps to make sure this does not happen again. Hope you will stay again to know that we do value every guest and hopefully you will have a better experience.
"Awesome Lake Hotel"
The Best Western Plus in Sylvan lake is immaculately clean. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. The staff in the breakfast area keep it clean and well stocked, and the breakfast was very good. The location is convenient too, right across the street from the lake.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
We appreciate everyone's great reviews of the hotel that we all take great pride in. We strive daily to make everyone's say the best it can be, The lake being right across the street makes it easy for guests to enjoy what Sylvan has to offer. Please come again.
"Hospitality at its Finest!"
This hotel rocks! Located right on the strip (Lakeshore Drive) with beach access more or less across the street. The rooms were clean, spacious and well-appointed. The hotel swimming pool has floor to ceiling windows looking right on the street and all the action. Great for a cooler day. I've never seen such meticulous cleaning! The morning we checked out I watched a cleaner doing the parking lot entrance, elevator, lobby area. He thoroughly vacuumed each window, even the fronds of the fern and every crook and cranny! No spiders in this place!! The staff were amazing and showed the small town hospitality that just comes naturally to them! Sandy in the kitchen was so accommodating, providing food needed to take with medication as well as personalized scrambled eggs sans the ham for one of us. The front desk staff and gentleman working in the dining room also went out of their way to make our stay comfortable, storing our blue up beach toys for us. The only criticism I would offer is to change out the light bulbs in the rooms. I've nothing against LED bulbs but a Warm light as opposed to the Cool ones in our room would have been welcome. So much natural light in the rooms it wasn't really a problem! The continental breakfast is over the top! I would HIGHLY recommend this hotel!
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you so much for your fabulous review. The staff at the hotel pride themselves on customer service so it is always great to hear words of praise. Our location makes it easy for everyone to enjoy the lake and and downtown area. Hope you visit with us again.
"Excellent Location & Hotel in Sylvan Lake"

"Warm hospitality at it's best"
So many things about this hotel makes it perfect for a weekend getaway at Sylvan Lake, let me list a few: (1) you will be greeted promptly with a warm smile and fresh cookies upon check-in no matter how busy they are (including on long weekends when they are fully booked), all the staff are friendly and helpful such as the maintenance guy who helped promptly with a clogged toilet, front desk, breakfast host who offer to make a waffle for my kids, room cleaners are thorough and friendly (2) the location is within 3-5 minutes walk to the best part of the lake and our lake view room on the top floor was perfect for our family of 2 adults 2 kids complete with microwave and mini fridge, comfortable beds, lots of pillows and enough sets of towels for 4 without having to ask (3) plenty of free parking (4) wifi is reliable and included (5) indoor pool for rainy days This is our 4th stay here, and we will be back. We travel often and stay at 4/5 star hotels and all around this is among the best. It is clean, friendly, comfortable, and convenient without nickeling and diming you for everything and that is very hard to find these days. A real gem!
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review

"A family event"
The Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake was the host stay for a family event. We were well received and all our requests accommodated. Our rooms were clean and well appointed. A comfy king-size bed.

The staff were friendly and helpful. They changed our room so we could overlook the lake even though we were checking in early. They directed us to a great restaurant for supper. It was very central to the lake core of town. The bed was incredibly comfortable. Looking forward to returning there.

"Excellent, Excellent, Excellent ! Great Work !!!"
Our Hockey Team (North West Warriors, Atom 6) from Calgary, AB stayed at this property for 2 nights, Feb. 16 & 17, 2018. I was the tournament organizer who booked 16 rooms. The customer service we received from ANN was so outstanding from start to finish. What a very professional, personable, efficient and pleasant woman to work with on every level, really refreshing ! We booked their hospitality room for a team dinner and party for the Saturday evening and it was a lovely space. We could even take a glimpse of the Winter Carnival Fireworks which went off on the lake at 7pm from the windows. TREVOR at the front desk was most cordial, customer focused and accommodating with our stay. The hotel was really gorgeous in every way. The players and parents both could not have asked for a warmer welcome or a more outstanding hotel. THANK YOU BEST WESTERN for all of your great customer service from your employees and for the gorgeous property you are operating in Sylvan Lake, AB. We will be back!!! Barb O'Connor

We have stayed at the Best Western Sylvan Lake a number of times and have enjoyed every one.

"Great Pool"
We came for a team hockey tournament and booked multiple rooms. The block room booking was easy and the hotel was very clean. The kids had an awesome time swimming in the pool and the check out was nice and fast.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for reviewing our hotel. So glad everyone had a great experience and the pool was such a a great hit. Hope to see you again for another tournament.

"A nice stay no matter what time of year"
Even for a one night business trip in fall this was a nice place to spend it. Facility was clean, staff was friendly, hotel interior was nice, bed was comfortable, and it was close to lots of great places.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. For business or pleasure our location has many great options within walking distance. Hope you book and stay with us again.
"Great stay"
We were made very welcome. Front desk was friendly and helpful. We brought pizza in for the team and we were allowed to use the dining area. The pool was available and enjoyed by our team. The hotel is in a picturesque area. We really enjoyed our stay.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
So glad your experience during your stay was enjoyed by your team. We have a great location across from the lake and near many amenities. Our Sunset room is a great place for a gathering and glad it was enjoyed by your whole team. Please come again.
"Very comfortable and pleasant!"
My mother, sister, myself and my little dog had the pleasure of staying at this hotel for a weekend, last month. We found the staff to be very helpful, friendly and accommodating. The room was spacious and clean, and was equipped with a small refrigerator as well as a microwave and coffee maker. The beds were very comfortable - and had no problems drifting off into a deep and restful sleep. The breakfast was hot and fresh and was included in the price of the room. (They were even able to provide gluten-free items for a member of our group with dietary restrictions!) We arrived on a Friday and were delighted to find the Farmers Market with its wonderful selection of produce, baking, jewelry, crafts, home businesses, musicians, food trucks, and more - located just across the street from the hotel. The location is close to restaurants, shopping and the beach. There was also a swimming pool, jacuzzi and exercise room at this hotel, but we didn't have an opportunity to try them during this trip. We would definitely stay here again!
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your kind review. We do appreciate hearing from everyone who stays with us so we can see how our training is going making everyone's experience the best it can be. Thank you also for noticing that our location is convenient and within walking distance for what ever you need. Look forward to your next stay when you can try out more of our amenities.
"Customer Service Perfect"
Anne, Brenda and Roy went over and above when I woke up to a flat tire in the morning. My tire was filled at the hotel, I had a destination to take my vehicle to as the staff called around for me. The staff went above and beyond to ensure I was okay before I left the hotel. You do not find this kind of customer service everyday. Excellent people in this hotel.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your great review. We strive everyday to make everyone's experience amazing but it sure helps when you start with such great staff that all naturally understand customer service, so glad you noticed.
"Not very happy"
The room was nice and clean,the front desk people not friendly.One lady Morgan was very helpful and friendly.The stairs were not open to the guest of the hotel to use,i was not happy about that because my dog does not like elevator.We had to carry my 50 lb dog on hands to the elevator.Wen i told the lady that my dog is scare she told me sorry we can not help you.We went to look for different hotel but every hotel in town was sold. We had no choice.The brekfast was very good and the eating room was nice and clean.I would stay there again because of the location and pet friendly rooms.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. It is nice to hear that most of your stay was enjoyable and I will look into how your struggle with you pet could have been rectified. We are a very pet loving hotel with a lot of staff owning their own pets. Hope to see you again in the near future.
"End of season consumer beware!!"
When I say consumer beware I mean for the entire town. Sadly the town has seen Summer in all its forms and is very aware of the up coming slow season. Best western started out like maybe the exception. But in fine form they joined the group after midnight. Maybe asking for bubble bath was too much but the short responds of I suggest shampoo not followed up with we can bring u another bottle. Doesn't scream helpful yet ignorant Maybe not much some people will say but after the gross hospitality we we're shown lol all night. U would agree. The staff in this town is no longer helping customer unless that means out of there wallet. We are very disgusted with everything in this town With one exception. Recommend u check out Fireside grill a pleasant surprise with helpful staff and great food. Good job!!
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
We appreciate your review and would first like to say that our hotel is sorry you feel the way you do. I have printed this for all staff to read and hope we learn from this, as it is from our guests input that we do ongoing training to improve how our guests are treated. Hope we can have your business again another time as we try hard every day to make every ones experience enjoyable.
"Hockey camp stay"
We stayed for 6 nights and the stay was very nice. We were there for my son's week long hockey camp. The room was clean and very spacious. The pool was nice although a bit small once there were a bunch of kids in it but I'll pick my battles. The breakfast room was very nice with a lot of seating. Selection was very good. Staff very helpful and courteous. Definitely would stay again
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. Glad you enjoyed your stay with us during your sons hockey camp, we are very near the arena which makes it a nice spot for any one who is going there. Hope to see you in the near future for any hockey tournaments that will be coming up.
"Amazing location, staff and very good breakfast and very clean! Super value!"
Great location, across from the lake... steps to Wibit park, rentals of water "toys"... close to Freshii( if you want a really clean eating). The pool was very very clean, so was the hot tub. Breakfast was included and very rich in options: fruits( including kiwis) yougurt, make your own waffles( you can add fruit, chocolate chips inside the batter) just .yum! Warm Food too: eggs, bacon, sausages, fruit juices, cereals etc... really great choices!
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
It is always greatly appreciated to hear great comments about our breakfast. It is one area that is harder to get good reviews about but when we do we certainly appreciate it. We are centrally located to many things in Sylvan making it easy for your guests to have a great experience. Hope to see you again.
"Excellent customer service and cleanliness!"
The rooms were very clean and the employees were all very friendly! They actually care about the quality of their guests stay! Highly recommend! We would stay here again the next time we visit Sylvan Lake for sure!!

"By far best accommodation in Sylvan Lake"
If you are planning on a trip to Sylvan Lake and require accommodations, you must book at the best western. Clean hotel inside and out, well trained and friendly staff. A 10 out of 10 without any doubt.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thanks for giving us such a great review and would give us a 10 for your experience. Best western says every guest every time and that is what we work towards every day. Come stay with us again.
"Best hotel stay ever!"
What a great place! Hotel was spotless, breakfast was amazing, and best of all EVERY staff member was awesome - from the cleaning staff to the front desk to the gentleman than tidied the breakfast area - super friendly and very helpful. Hotel is ideally located at Sylvan Lake to enjoy all amenities - go karts, watersports, beach and restaurants. This will be our go to hotel for future stays in Sylvan Lake.

"Sylvan Lake Experience"
Very nice new hotel with a good level of ammenities for this rural location. Very friendly staff both at check in/out and during our stay. Breakfast was simple but good and the staff kept the eating area very clean during and after the deal duration.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. We appreciated every comment and work hard to make sure everyone's needs are met.
"Lake front Best Western"
From check in to check out, we liked everything about the Best Western in Sylvan Lake. We had a view of the lake. The location was perfect for walking to the beach, restaurants, bars, grocery stores. Will stay there again.
"Excellent hotel"
Hotel is 5 mins from the water's edge. Really speedy checkin by Jessica and incredibly helpful assistance from Anne, who really is a great ambassador for the company. . We loved this place so much, we stayed for a further 2 nights. Breakfast was busy as popular time of year to visit. Room was large and airy. We booked a lake view room overlooking lighthouse. Short walk to bars, stores and restaurants. Great for family with small children. Have nothing but praise from all staff, who seem cheerful and friendly and helpful. We'll definitely return here.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
So pleased that you had such a great stay and found our location and staff met all your needs. Our location lends itself to easy access to everything you could want or need. Hope you visit again.
"Excellent Experience!"
We were impressed with exceptional staff always helpful and the very clean and upgraded rooms. A great location next to the lake this place has it all! And fantastic complimentary breakfast the morning. Would recommend to friends and family.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Your review was great. Thank you for recognizing the staff who take pleasure in giving every guest a great experience. We hope you visit again.
"Sylvan Lake"
The staff and amenities of this hotel were excellent. Very clean, superior breakfast, lobby and breakfast room very bright and cheerful. Room was clean and well decorated. the location is excellent, very close to the lakeshore.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your kind review. We are location downtown is close to everything you could need for a pleasant stay. Hope you visit again.
"Top Quality, Top Service"
What a fantastic stay we had at this hotel. Being familiar with hotel stays, I was pleasantly surprised at how very clean and organized it is. The room was clean, clean, clean and the bedding the whitest I have ever seen! The pool and hot tub were very clean and well maintained. Now the staff, where do I begin? Trevor checked us in with such patience. He explained everything we needed to know about our stay and the hotel. Morgan who checked us out was so very pleasant and patient with our kids. The breakfast that was included in our stay was just as it should be, the hot portions were hot, and the rest were fresh (fruits, breads, pastry, yogurt, juices). Both fellows, Lawrence and the other (sorry, cannot remember his name) were so accommodating and attentive to our needs. They kept the eating and serving areas very, very clean, stocked and ready for every patron that came in. We will definitely come back before the end of the year, and next year. Top notch, thanks for such a great experience! Shay
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
So pleased you enjoyed being at our hotel. Your kind words about the staff lets us know that our training and dedication is noticed. All of us are very proud of our hotel and strive every day as to how we can make it even better. We look forward to your next stay.
"Great Location & Friendly Staff"
Hotel staff was very friendly and the location was perfect. We didn't use our car for three days. Everything with close to walk to but we also had our bikes which we road everyday. Beach is across the street, lots of food choices close by and shoppers drug mart right next door. Although we were right on the many street the hotel was very quiet.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for the great review. We are located to make it easy to walk to everything you need. Restaurants and bars are and walk walk away. Great place to just come and relax.
"Our favorite place to stay in Sylvan Lake!"
We love staying at this beautiful hotel in Sylvan Lake. The proximity to the beach, restaurants and activities for the kids (like Aqua Splash, mini golf, bumper cars and go carts) is perfect. We are always given the best rate that is available, and when we arrive, we are treated like royalty. We look forward to the breakfasts and the fresh baked cookies in the afternoon! The pool and hot tub are lovely and the staff are very friendly and helpful. The beds are super comfortable and the view of the lake is wonderful. We will come again soon!
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Our location is great for a family to come and enjoy all the Sylvan has to offer or for a couple to stay relax and enjoy the night life just a walk away. We hope visit again soon.
"Best Sleep in a Long Time"
We loved the room. The bedding was amazing. I want to order the sheets, pillows, duvet, and bed for my own home. The room was clean and the staff was very accommodating. Two thumbs up. We were told it is the only decent hotel in Sylvan. I'd stay there anytime, again.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your great review, and recognizing the beds as we do get a lot of comments of people wanting to buy them for their homes. We hope you visit again and have another great sleep.
"Great!"
This is the second time we stayed at the Best Western in 2 months, and once again we had a great experience. The rooms are clean, they smell nice too, or at least ours did :) The beds are comfortable, the washrooms are clean, lots of towels, jetted bath. But the most important thing for us in the room was the microwave and a mini fridge, travelling with a little one it's always great if you can store and heat up milk in the room, also free Wifi. We stayed in room 204, parking lot view, very quiet. The breakfasts are included, and it is very good. They offer hot eggs, sausages, hash browns, cereal waffles, pastry, fruit, yogurts, juices, coffee, teas etc. Enough to get your belly full :) The breakfast seating area is not large, but they have an overflow dining room near by. There is also a pool, but we did not visit it. The hotel is located across the street form the lake, close to light house, beach, restaurants etc. by foot. We would definitely stay there again :)
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. You are a great advocate for our hotel. You expressed everything better than I could. Hope there is another visit soon.
"Very happy with our stay!"
Service was very good, breakfast was way better than we expected. They have gluten free bread and muffins, the omelette was great too. All the gluten eaters loved the french toast and waffles as well. Pool is small, and my eldest mentioned it was dirty but the kids had fun. The location was great, right accross from the lake and walking distance to restaurants and bars. The rooms are standard, but clean. I would love to see the decorative tan pillow and bed runner removed, they are never clean and I always prefer a bed without those things. The water was a bit soft, hard to rinse all the girls long hair after a sandy beachy day, certainly not the end of the world, but definitely added more time to everyone getting ready. The remotes are cleaned with each new check in, our family appreciates the attention to cleanliness.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review and as always gives us some thoughts as to how to make it even better for our guests. Our location is prime for all beach activities and later just a stroll to the downtown restaurants. We do invite you to stay with us again.
"Family trip for wedding in Spruce View, Alberta"
Hotel is in a good location of town. Service & employees was very good. Everything was clean inside and outside. We stayed 5 nights & was 30 minutes away from our local families, the hotel was well worth the drive each day.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Glad you enjoyed your visit with us and your family. We look forward to your next stay.
"Awesome stay"
This hotel is the perfect location for the water sports, restaurants and easy to get to. Very helpful and friendly staff. The only thing I requested was a lake view room and we didn't get it this time.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. Yes are lake-view rooms are in great demand and with so few of them it is hard to accommodate everyone. We hope you stay again and stay in one of them to make your visit even better. The location of our hotel across from the lake and walking distance from everything does make it an ideal spot. Thanks again and hope to see you soon.
"Great value and Quality"
We enjoyed our stay at the Best Western. Kind and cheerful staff, always ready to assist. Clean and very nice rooms. Breakfast attendant always in the breakfast room keeping things tidy and assisting guests wherever needed. Clean pool and lobby bathrooms.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Your review makes us know that everyone's hard work and kindness is rewarded with great reviews. Thank you so much. Please stay again.
"Fabulous stay"
Stayed here while in Alberta for a family wedding in Spruce View about 30 min away. Beautiful little lake town. Friendly and professional staff. Room 301 was perfect and had great view of the lake. Breakfast was good.
"Great Location for a family"
Hotel and amenities are quite good. Not fancy but good value. Rooms were very clean and staff are very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was better than expected with 3-4 hot items each day. Right across from the marina and a short walk to the beach.
"Excellent Night Stop"
It is what it says on the tin. This is rural western Canada, the walls are thin and you can hear noise from the next room. It's been this way in this part of the world since the Bison disappeared. But otherwise, it's perfect! Excellent staff, professional service and helpful as you could ever need. Very nice room, comfy bed and the air con worked! Albeit it is thermostatically controlled so it switches on and off resulting in some temperature variations of a minor sort. The included breakfast was ample, and the staff very helpful. A great hotel in the thriving metropolis that Sylvan Lake becomes during summer!
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. I enjoyed your humor and wish we could have met during your visit. So glad you appreciated the staff as we do have very dedicated staff which is very nice for guests and management. Please visit again and let me know when you do, would like to meet you.

"Very good hotel, family friendly, pet friendly."
We stayed last weekend in this hotel, nice and clean, even allowing us to bring our pet. It is conveniently situated in front of the lake and the Aqua Park and very close to many amenities. Breakfast was included and it was very good. Staff were super helpful and definitely we will return next summer.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review

Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
So pleased that you enjoyed your stay. We do try to accommodate early check ins when possible. Hope you stay with us again.
"Nice Place!"
stayed 2 nights in July and it was great ! newer hotels that didn't have that old hotel feel and had firm comfy beds and soft pillows, fridge, microwave, free breakfast and was really quiet ! it's a bit more pricey than the other hotels in the area but being within an easy walk to the beach, it was more than worth it. we will definitely stay here again but this time for a longer period.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. Every review gives us the feedback to know we are giving our guests the stay they are expecting and with our location it makes for a great stay. Look forward to your next stay.
"Great hotel in a convenient location"
We really like this hotel and I personally think it is the best one available in Sylvan Lake. It is located close to everything is one of the few hotels with a pool and hottub. The bed was very comfortable and the room was modern and well maintained/clean. I definitely recommend this hotel if you are going to Sylvan Lake.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Glad you enjoyed your stay and found the hotel and location to suit your needs. We strive every day to keep a clean hotel and glad you noticed. Please stay again.
"2 night stay july long weekend"
First night was noisy till early hours of the morning. I was told it was the July long weekend traffic. Also noisy pipes. Polite staff. Walking distance to the lake and restaurants. Free breakfast. Clean. Hotel charges tourism levy.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. We are sorry you found it noisy but July long weekend is extremely busy and something we as a business look forward to all winter when we have been so slow. This year being Canada's 150 birthday we were excited to see so many people come out to celebrate. Being across from the lake we are an easy walk to all the celebrations. Please come and stay with us again but maybe come during the week when we are much slower.
"Stay at the Best Western Hotel"
This is a great hotel. The rates are reasonable, it's clean, the service is good, it has an indoor pool and hot tub and the best thing is you can bring your pet - how nice is that! It also includes a continental breakfast in the price so that is a bonus too!
"Best place to stay in Sylvan Lake"
Nice view of the lake, spacious room, new and quite comfortable. Professional and courteous employees. Well located to a few restaurants in the area and is in very good proximity to the beach. By far the best place to stay in Sylvan Lake.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Your review was so nice to hear. We feel we are are the best place to stay in Sylvan of course but to hear it from our guests makes it even better. I hope you stay with us again in the near future.
"Lakeside Comfort"
This is a contemporary, clean property located on a lake front street in the heart of Sylan Lake. Located close to the beach, marina, shopping areas & golf. Rooms are large, comfortable& quiet. Some great views of the lake available. Breakfast is included. No bar or restaurant on site, but plenty close by. Plenty of free parking, but get your pass. Signage indicates medium & long term rentals available. Recommend.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. We do have a great location for all things lake in the summer time. Yes we do provide parking passes in the summer to guarantee you a spot in the busy summer months. Please come and enjoy the area again.
"Excellent location and clean"
Totally enjoyed our stay at this hotel. The staff were very friendly and helpful. It was within walking distance of the marina and the paths along the beach and street shops. No need to drive to the popular places to see the sites. Parking at the hotel seemed to be just enough and not crowded during our stay. Wish we had more time to use the pool that looked so clean. Would stay here again anytime as long as it remained the same.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Your review is greatly appreciated. We strive to keep the place extremely clean at all times and the staff works hard to keep it that way. Our location makes it easily accessible for you to enjoy all that Sylvan has to offer. Place come again.

"Best Western Sylvan Lake"
I enjoyed my stay at Best Western Plus. This is a new Best Western across the street from the lake. The hotel is in front of a condo complex so you cannot see the water, but the location is excellent. A very new, nice and clean hotel. I will be back !
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. So glad you enjoyed your stay and will be returning. Yes the building across the street some of our view but we do have some rooms with a lake view.

My dad and I stayed here overnight while we were in town doing some work and it was a great experience. Super friendly staff made us feel right at home as soon as we checked in.

Very friendly staff and very comfortable bed and room. Had a king size bed that was comfy and provided a great nights rest. I would recommend staying at this hotel though for the time of year, April, it was a little pricey.

"Not for the solo traveller"
This hotel is family friendly. They allow pets. Which is great if you are looking for a place to leave your dog while you are away for the day or space for your kids to run around. But if you are like I was and looking for a quiet place by a deserted beach in early spring for some R&R, to read a book, or catch up on some studying, you should go somewhere else. There were kids were having a great time running around and playing in the elevators without their parents. Dogs were barking for 5 HOURS STRAIGHT (!OMG!) while their owners were away. Reception said their scripted formalities but really didn't do anything to show an "I care" attitude. Breakfast quality was on the low end of the scale for this style. All of this may be just fine if you prefer the hands off service style, you have dogs and need space for your kids to "be kids". In fact, to be fair, this hotel is excellent if you are looking for a place to hold a family reunion or similar. You really can't get better. Unfortunately for me, a solo traveller looking for some alone time, this hotel did not meet my needs. I regretted my choice and I can't recommend it.

I am sorry that your stay at our hotel was not what you had expected or needed for a quiet get away. We do have a few weekends at this time of year that we are extremely busy with teams which in your case was one of them. I can assure you that we do try to keep the pets and and kids under control during these busy times but as you could see its is extremely hard with so many to watch. I would like you to please give us another chance to give you the weekend you wanted and I am sure deserved. Hope to hear from you again.
"Annual Baton Trip to Sylvan Lake"
This is a very nice hotel that works well for a weekend in Sylvan Lake. We have stayed here for the past few years for an annual Baton Twirling competition that is held in Sylvan Lake. The hotel is well situated and very comfortable for these weekend stays. We will be back next year.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for the review. We enjoyed your group are pleased your stay was good. We look forward to you booking with us every year and hope whenever your in town you stay with us again.
"Nice family hotel"
We have family in Sylvan lake, thats why we stay there. We have over all good experience with best western hotels. In the summertime it gets really pricey because of the tourists. Otherwise than that, the rooms are clean, free parking, and free breakfast which we enjoy very much. This time...the 3rd stay....it was a noisy. There was a hockey event going on. Kids running along the halls and yelling. Its not the kids....Its parents not looking after their kids and show them how to behave in a hotel where other guests are. But...this doesn't reflect the hotel itself. So, we definitely are coming back. Just make sure there isn't an event going on since we like silence.
Sue F, General Manager at Best Western Plus Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. It is a shame that you found your recent stay noisy. We do try hard to keep the noise level under control but as you saw many things factor into our ability to do so. So glad to hear that you will return, but please do ask if any event is going on at that time. Once again our apologies and see you again.
"Another Great Stay"
I stay here a few times a year on business. I was just there again. The rooms are spacious, the beds are super comfortable. The room is clean. There is plenty of variety at breakfast, even though hotel breakfasts aren't really my preference. The staff here have always been very friendly and helpful. I had the opportunity to see a room in another hotel in town. The price was slightly less than the BW but the quality of the rooms and amenities wasn't even close. I'll be back here for sure.
Sue F, General Manager at BEST WESTERN PLUS Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. We appreciate your comments , and we are pleased that you noticed what we have to offer. We like to treat our guests like we would want to be treated and strive everyday from the feedback to achieve our goals. Please come and enjoy another with with us.
"Great location, nice facilities"
The bedrooms were large and very comfortable beds. The breakfast area was comfortable with the lounge attached and the front desk there for questions. Staff were very helpful and professional. The exercise room is very basic, no free weights and two of the three cardio equipment were out of order during my stay, but otherwise the pool and hot tub were immaculate.
Sue F, General Manager at BEST WESTERN PLUS Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. Your feedback is important to help us make improvements to everyone's stay. The exercise room is being repaired as we have been waiting for parts. Hope you visit with us again in the near future.
"Business trip"
A thoroughly enjoyable experience. I coordinated a planning session there for work and it was perfect. The location was great, hotel room was lovely, food was great and our meeting space and set up worked really well. Participants were a diverse and high level group and the feedback I received was excellent. They loved the facility, their rooms, service and everything. It was clean, bright and the staff bent over backwards to provide everything we needed and more. The hotel has a fabulous crew and they should feel fortunate to have them. Thank you to all for supporting me in providing a great hotel and services to facilitate our needs.
Sue F, General Manager at BEST WESTERN PLUS Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you Gretel for the lovely review. The staff and I are very pleased that we could meet all your expectations . Our goal is meet and exceed every guests expectations every visit every time from check in to check out. We hope you and your group come and stay with us in the future. We enjoyed your visit.
"Very nice hotel at Sylvan Lake"
Its probably the only decent hotel at Sylvan lake, but that didn't stop the hotel from trying its very best. Hotel looks beautiful inside and out. Rooms are clean, staff very friendly and helpful. Breakfast is good to gets the family going quickly. Kids just don't want to wait around for food, especially in the morning.
Sue F, General Manager at BEST WESTERN PLUS Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for recognizing our strengths and noticing that the staff is very friendly and we try hard everyday to meet everyone's needs. Hope you visit us again so we can show you that this is standard we try to achieve every day.
"Fantastic stay!"
From check-in to check-out every staff member we interacted with was warm and hospitable. Breakfast was good-a nice selection. I didn't love the casserole on Saturday morning but you can't love everything :) We truly appreciated the coffee/tea/water that was out all day so that we could just relax and have a cup. The room was really nice, and after sleeping on those pillows I am on the hunt for some just like them...very comfy. Although this hotel is across the street from the lake, do not expect to have a lake view as there is a newer building that has gone up in front of the hotel and with the water slides coming down, who knows what will go up in their place that may abstract the view. Definitely would go back.
Sue F, General Manager at BEST WESTERN PLUS Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for comments and kind words for your recent stay with us. We take every comment and try to improve so we will visit how we can improve on our breakfast casserole. Yes we will be watching very closely as to what is in store for area waterslide was in, at this point we have not heard of any large building going in. Thanks again and hope you visit soon.
"Great Accommodation"
Pleasant and professional staff; overall condition of room, hallways, breakfast area and reception area very clean and modern; comfortable bed; very quiet surroundings; nicely decorated; convenient parking location; No complaints.

Thank you for your great review. I was glad to see that all areas of your stay were noticed and appreciated. We strive to meet everyone's expectations as far and cleanliness and pleasant interactions with everyone at the hotel. We hope you come and stay with us again.
"Very nice accommodation"
We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel, beautifully decorated room, and very comfortable bed; nice size of room and amazing jetted bathtub. Regretfully we forgot our swim suits and could not enjoy the pool or hot tub. Next time for sure.
Sue F, General Manager at BEST WESTERN PLUS Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
So pleased you enjoyed your stay with us. You most certainly will have to come again and do bring your swim suits and enjoy all our facilities like our pool and hot tub. Our jetted tubs in our king rooms makes for a relaxing time after a long day. Look forward to your next visit.
"Great location"
Perfect location within walking distance to beach, shopping, and a ton of bars and restaurants . Staff very friendly. Room was clean and spacious and had an awesome view of the lake. Breakfast was a bit sparse in the morning as there was a convention staying there and so many people eating that they couldn't keep up on the demand.
Sue F, General Manager at BEST WESTERN PLUS Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. We appreciate each and everyone and use them as a training tool to help make everyone's experience a pleasure. We thank you for staying with us and would like to invite you to stay again with us.
"First time in Sylvan Lake"
This is a beautiful hotel, with lovely decor, very welcoming and comfortable. We arrived 2 hours before check in, but our room was ready for us. Was a bit disappointed that the lakeview room is only a partial lakeview, as there is a big condo between the hotel and the lake. Is more of a "waterslide view". But what we could see of the lake and marina was beautiful. Also a bit disappointed there were no pay per view movies, as we ended up spending one day in the room as it rained ALL day. Enjoyed the jetted tub. Asked for a late checkout on the Monday and was told they did not do late checkout in the summer. They did let us stay until 4 p.m. with a half day charge, so that was okay. There is no restaurant on site, but they do free breakfast. The breakfast room was full when we arrived and very hectic. They did allow us to take our food to the boardroom next door, which was nice and quiet. For dinner there are tons of restaurants in town, but we ended up ordering pizza from Panago. They delivered to the hotel, and were very fast. Found Sylvan Lake to be way too crowded for my liking so probably won't return, but would highly recommend this hotel to anyone.
Sue F, General Manager at BEST WESTERN PLUS Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your response. I take all things into consideration and your review will give us room for discussion. So glad you enjoyed our hotel and location. Please come and stay with us again.
"Memorable Vacation!!"
Really enjoyed our stay. Very clean, reasonably priced and pet friendly facility. The location is perfect & the staff is excellent. They serve excellent hot breakfast every morning! We will definitely go back to this hotel again & would refer their name to our friends and family!
Sue F, General Manager at BEST WESTERN PLUS Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you your review and so pleased you enjoyed your stay with us. We hope you stay again with us so we can continually make your visit the best it can be. Pets are most welcome and being close to everything we hope guests all have their expectations met.
"Excellent - lives up to the Best Western Reputation"
Excellent location with easy walking access to the beach and the GoKarts. Walking access to the Big Moo for ice cream and some great local restaurants. This is the end of Lakeshore drive you want to stay on. We stopped in Sylvan Lake for one night and found the hotel very comfy and clean.
"Clean, dog friendly and great location! "
Stayed there for one night with hubby and two dogs. It was their (dogs) first hotel stay. So happy to find out that this hotel allows dogs. There is a 20$ fee for their stay and we got two doggie bags with treats and poop bags. I thought that was a super nice touch! The rooms were impeccably clean. I was very impressed! Location is great. Very close to the water and close to the hustle n bustle of lakeshore drive. Breakfast was decent. There was a waffle machine! Cant wait to stay here again with the puppies :)
Sue F, General Manager at BEST WESTERN PLUS Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
So glad you enjoyed your stay with the puppies. We try to make it a great experience for everyone pets included. Our location does make it easy for all guests to enjoy what Sylvan has to offer. Look forward to your next stay.
"Great facility and convenient location."
I have stayed here multiple times now. The rooms are spacious, with great amenities. The hotel has free parking, wifi and full breakfast. The hotels is also pet friendly. It has a swimming pool and hot tub. Found staff to be friendly and accommodating.
Sue F, General Manager at BEST WESTERN PLUS Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
It is repeat guests like yourself that truly let us know that we are continually keeping up with our jobs, that being meeting your expectations. Thanks for the great review. See you again.
"Relaxing, enjoyable stay."
Everything about this place was excellent. Friendly courteous staff, hot breakfast, clean rooms. The location near the beach was very convenient. Rooms quiet. Only complaint--parking lot crowded because of how many people were enjoying this hotel.
Sue F, General Manager at BEST WESTERN PLUS Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you so much for your review!! It is gratifying to know our hard work and goals are recognized as is our great location. Being so close to everything does represent the crowed parking lot but we do try to make sure those who park there are our guests. Please join us again.
"Another Excellent Stay"
We stay at this Best Western every year. It is always clean and we find everything working well. This year it was noticeable how pleasant the staff were. The cleaning staff were bright and cheerful, the breakfast staff were very accommodating and the front desk staff were helpful and happy to see us.
Sue F, General Manager at BEST WESTERN PLUS Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you! It is so nice to hear returning guests experience the same every visit. We strive to make your visits feel like your at home. Look forward to your next visit.
"Nice hotel in great location"
Nice hotel right across the street from the lake and waterslide (though waterslide to be replaced by a park in 2017). Rooms are spacious enough and clean and everything worked as it should. Fridge, microwave, coffee maker (Keurig) in room and hotel has pool, jacuzzi, exercise area. The included breakfast was fairly good with the standard selection + waffle machines. This hotel is a bit more expensive than the other nice ones in the area, but it has the best location, is very clean and well maintained (feels new) and just overall a nicer hotel (so it's worth it!).
Sue F, General Manager at BEST WESTERN PLUS Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. Thank you for noticing how well the hotel is kept up, this makes the staff feel they have done a great job. We are very well placed next to everything you need for your summer holiday. Please stay with us again.
"First time in Sylvan Lake"
We recently returned from a wedding in Sylvan Lake and stayed at the Best Western down by the lake shore. It was lovely. Our room was beautifully appointed and very clean. There was everything there that you could want and if you need anything else the staff and house keeping staff were there to help. Great location within walking distance of so much.
Sue F, General Manager at BEST WESTERN PLUS Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Your review makes our job feel greatly appreciated. We try daily to make everyone's stay special so we were glad to hear you felt that way. Being right across from the lake and nearby all the happenings in Sylvan we hope attract guests to stay with us. Please come again.
"Not so satisfied with the service"
I usually review after staying at a property but this time I feel dissatisfied that I have to write this during our stay. We tried to checked in on July 20 around noon but our room wasn't ready. Totally understandable since the front counter agent said that check in was at 4pm. What bothered me was when she was checking in the lady in front of me, she was super friendly but when she dealt with me, I got a luke warm reception. She said that she will give us a call once our room is ready which she estimated around 3:00-3:20pm, but she never did. Also, I booked this directly with the hotel front desk (in which both agents were great on the phone) and prepaid this reservation 2 months prior with a request for a lake facing room (which we never got); but I guess, you may as well be better booking through a 3rd party website (such as Hotels.com and etc) to get extra perks. Booking directly with them, doesn't make a difference. To add, it might also be a good bonus to add a little treat for the dog when a guest is paying $20 per day for pet fee as what other hotels are doing. Pool and hot tub are pretty standard. TIPS: The wifi is really really slow. And for others who may be mislead by the description "Double Queen" room, this is actually 1 Queen and 1 Double bed (not 2 Queens).
Sue F, General Manager at BEST WESTERN PLUS Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. We take every review whether good or bad to try and improve and make everyone have the same experience. I am sorry for how you felt treated at check-in and will certainly make sure this is rectified and further training is done to make sure every guest feels welcome. I will also make sure with front desk to make sure they offer the pet treat we have available and I sorry that you did not get offered it. I can certainly assure you that all the beds are double queens in the rooms and did go and check the room you had stayed in. I hope that you will give us another chance to make you feel welcome at our hotel. Once again thanks for the review.
"Great Hotel in Sylvan Lake"
We were pleasantly surprised with what a nice hotel property this was. The hotel is quite new - so everything is clean and the decor is modern looking. It is located right across from the lake and we had booked the lake-view room so we had a very nice view of the lake, the lighthouse and the waterslides. This is apparently the last season for the waterslides as it has been sold and will be torn down at the end of the season - so the view could improve even more if the space is turned into park/beach area by the town. There was construction going on at the front of the hotel on the street/sidewalks. We did not hear any construction noise while in the hotel - so soundproofing is very good. The construction only created a slight challenge to get into the parking lot. Our guest room was clean and bright. Air-conditioning worked very well. Our only recommendation was that there aren't any grab bars outside the tub in the bathroom. We found the tub to be slippery and difficult to step out of without something to grab onto. The Guest Service Agents that we encountered (Morgan and Andrea) were very awesome! Very friendly and accommodating. The room rate includes breakfast in an area just off the lobby. The area can be very busy and loud in the morning. Breakfast provided was okay - keeping in mind this is not a full service breakfast so the food is pre-made and served buffet style. Nevertheless - there was a good selection. I would recommend this hotel for those visiting Sylvan Lake. It's clean and convenient and the rate is fair for a Lake/Beach town that is often very popular and busy during the summer months.
Sue F, General Manager at BEST WESTERN PLUS Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
What a great review of our hotel. You have covered everything that we recommend about visiting our hotel. So nice to hear we are meeting ours goals and welcome everyone to visit and hope you as well come and stay again.
"Lovely Stay"
Very lovely hotel. Hotel was within walking distance to almost every amenity. Pool and hot tub were very wonderful. Continental breakfast in the morning was very delicious. King room was very spacious, and the bed was super comfortable! Price was a bit steep, but I'd pay it again. STAFF WAS AMAZING! So friendly and professional.
Sue F, General Manager at BEST WESTERN PLUS Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you so much for your review of our hotel. It is nice to hear we are doing our job. The lake and beach front being across the street make it the perfect place to enjoy your summer trip. We also are well located with an easy walk to many restaurants. We hope you come and visit again.
"Great Place but a bit expensive"
This was a good hotel with the necessary amenities. The pool was a bit cold but otherwise, everything was good. The cost is nearly double of other hotels in Sylvan but it is the only one near the beach with a pool.
Sue F, General Manager at BEST WESTERN PLUS Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Your review is greatly appreciated. We like to hear all comments so we can continually grow, making sure we can make every ones stay great and have them as repeat guests. We would love to have you stay with us again.
"Conveniently near to the beach, clean, typical Best Western"
Located across the street from the beach, this small hotel was clean, and the staff were really friendly. The pool and hot tub are not large, but again the beach is across the street. The decor and amenities associated with Best Westerns were all present and accounted for. There was a slight glitch with the first room we were given, in that the bathroom lights didn't work. BUT, we were immediately given the room next door, which had a slightly nicer view, and they offered to help us with the move.
Sue F, General Manager at BEST WESTERN PLUS Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. We strive daily to make sure all rooms are ready for guests arrival but as you encountered things still happen. So glad to hear it was readily fixed so you could enjoy your stay with us. We are located right across from the beach so easy to enjoy a day at the lake.
"Great stay"
A group of 17 families stayed 2 nights for a sports tournament in Red Deer. We we treated very well by all staff. Rooms were a good size and very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was great and endless beverages and cookies were appreciated greatly! Cost was reasonable, less that comparable hotels in Red Deer and the 15 drive to our tournament was no problem at all. No negatives!
Sue F, General Manager at BEST WESTERN PLUS Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your great review. It is so nice to get reviews that recognize the hard work of everyone who works here. We strive daily to make everyone's stay the best it can be. We sincerely hope you come and stay again in the future.
"Extremely clean and friendly"
We spent one night at the Best western in sylvan lake and were pleasantly suprised. The staff are extremely helpful and helped us store our bikes in a secure place. The rooms are very clean and beds are comfortable. The hotel is well situated to explore the town and the lake. Would highly recommend this place to anyone.

Beautiful, clean room with a view. Staff was very friendly and helpful. We had a wonderful time! The location is central to pier in Sylvan Lake and close to restaurants, the beach and the water slides.

Your review was greatly appreciated. We definitely are located well being across from the lake, beach, pier and water slide. We have great walk-ability to many restaurants and shops. Hope you stay again this summer to enjoy all that we have to offer.
"Looking for a great place at Sylvan Lake?"
Stayed for my first time, this week. Very restful visit which is what we we're looking for. Anne and Chelsea will provide awesome client service when you call in and on your check in. This is a really busy lake during the summer months, but I just discovered it's an awesome place to visit "off season". Great town, that still offers "small town" service and amenities.
Sue F, General Manager at BEST WESTERN PLUS Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review on the hotel and the staff. We appreciate knowing that we are meeting your expectations and you had a great stay with us. Summer is is upon us but knowing you enjoyed your stay was a pleasure to read. Please come and stay with us again.

Thank you for your review. We appreciate each and one. Yes it is ideally situated for beach time this summer, hope you visit again.
"Comfortable"

We were very happy in this hotel, we have stayed here twice and have had great service on both occasions. At one point we were invted somewhere and my husbands elderly mother did not want to come - the staff looked in on her and even made her some coffee! The breakfasts were lovely as were the gym and pool facilities, we would go back in a heartbeat.

Comfortable sized room, clean and well appointed. Friendly and well informed staff with timely check-in process. Cheerful dining space and reasonable breakfast choices. Located close to the lakeside and in walking distance to excellent restaurants.
"Treated like Gold and staff was very kind!"
We had a kids birthday party there and the 7 couples went. We were treated like gold by the staff. At night we basically took over the lobby dining area and the front desk went out of there way to make us feel comfortable and accommodated. They understand guest service
"Fatasntic"
NEW ; clean and VERY FRIENDLY ;Has a great setting well worth the drive 10 minutes outside of Red Deer .Walk the boardwalk and enjoy the strip of small town setting .Great place to make a night in a hotel into a special one .

"A relaxing visit, good service"
We visited the Best Western for 4 nights in January. The room was well appointed and the bed was comfortable. A hot breakfast was included and it was really nice. There was a variety of choices from the hot entrees usually eggs with hash browns with either bacon or sausage to cereals, yogurts, fruit juice and coffee. They had a waffle maker of you wanted waffles. We want to recognize two staff in particular. Robert, at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. And Donna who works in the kitchen. On Sunday morning my wife and I went out to the car to find it buried under 12 inches of snow. Donna was parked nearby and she insisted on brushing off our car. We really appreciated her kindness. As we are from BC, we are not used to that much snow. These two staff members really enhanced our stay. Thank you.

"September Stay - very good experience"
This is a newer hotel in the area so it's clean and has up to date furnishings. We had a view of the water however the hotel has a building across the street blocking the view so the view is limited. It's the best you can get without compromising to an older hotel. Love the beds. The bathroom jacuzzi was terrific. Breakfast was good - the coffee very good. Surprised however that the TV was so small. Good access to the promenade (just across the street) where you can take long walks by the water. Just one block away from the hotel is the Sylvan Lake Steam & Spa (which I would have reviewed but I didn't see the listing) where I had a Steam Bath and Infrared Massage (fabulous place - highly recommended - also newer business - price was only $25 combined without GST) - perfect thing to do on a rainy day. The hotel pool was very small so this was a nice alternative as well. Red Deer isn't far so we shopped there during the day. I would stay here again.
Sue F, General Manager at BEST WESTERN PLUS Chateau Inn Sylvan Lake, responded to this review
Thank you for your review. We are centrally located to so makes it very walk able to a lot of businesses and the beach. So glad you enjoyed your stay with us and had a good day at the spa, which is a treat after long walks. Please stay with us again.

"Luxury Weekend in Sylvan Lake"
I was in Sylvan Lake for our Annual Gideon Fall Conference. I was treated very royally at the Best Western Plus Chateau Inn in Sylvan Lake, Alberta. The check in clerk was very gracious and helpful in recommending dining within walking distance. A full complimentary breakfast was provided each morning. I regretted that I did not have enough time to use the pool or exercise room.

Your review makes what we strive for everyday seem appreciated. Thank you from all the staff for your comments. Hope you get a chance to come again and use all our facilities.

Great location on lakeshore drive. Nice, clean, hotel with good service. Typical hotel beds. I think the continental breakfast could be improved alot. Don't care for the powdered eggs omelette, or scrambled eggs.

"Good value for the money, great location"
Room was clean, bed was comfortable and well appointed. The location was lovely, close to major highway and a nice waterfront area. Plenty of parking, there was a standard continental breakfast available.

"Awesome"
Great place, close to water slides and lake. Staff was friendly and helpful. Bug selection of breakfast food to choose from. My kids were pleased as it has an indoor pool, hot tub and exercise room. Highly reccommend

"getaway"
Very considerate and nice hotel, great for its proximity to the lake, restaurants and bars. lifts are a little slow but generally an excellent place to getaway quietly from work environment. Breakfast is very good with variety of choice.
