We recently stayed there while we toured Alberta. It's ok for one night. It's very basic but our room was clean. The shower had a bit of mold and could have used a little extra cleaning but was still decent. We ate dinner and breakfast in the restaurant. The food was pretty good. The overall property could have used a tidy up. Definitely not a luxury "resort" but hotels are very limited in this area.
Rooms very old and definitely not worth the price charged. Area around is beautiful but the lodge hotel leaves a lot to be desired. The restaurant on the property was good.

Decent location for Abraham Lake but the rooms were not worth the cost. The beds are uncomfortable, there's no fan to make up for the lack of AC and the bathrooms have doors that connect you to the neighboring room and allow noise and light from the other room to invade your space.
We arrived at 7 pm after closing time of the front desk. But we were happily greeting by hotel staff. Willing to give high grade to their house keeping, restaurant and surrounding of the hotel. Will definitely come again and introduce to friends.
The door to our room wasn't working properly and they said they were going to get someone to look at it but they didn't seem to. We didn't feel safe so we left and drove all the way home.
Room was basic but fine for just a passing visit, could have done with a kettle and some mugs so we could make tea/coffee rather than a confusing coffee machine which we couldn’t work.
The DTR is a no frills property that is very clean, updated, and comfortable. It’s a good value and relatively close to the Icefields Parkway. Note that there are few lodging choices in the area that are reasonably priced.
The property was just as described, and check-in was easy. The restaurant was nice, and my wife and I enjoyed the tremendous service by a young lady from the French Alps who spent the summer taking care of customers. If you decide to stay, ask the employees how to get to the beach - it's a little bit of a hike down and back, but the views are well worth it!

Great accomodation. Quite remote. Diesel Generator power and satellite internet. Gas station, groceries, restaurant. Fairly well priced considering how remote it is. No cellular coverage, like most of the rockies. I'd stay here again.
