Lovely staff, comfy and large bed, clean
Toller Pool, Sauna, Hottub! Nette Gastgeber. Frühstücksgutschein für ein nettes Diner inclusive.
Lage an der befahrenen Straße. Hört man doch recht deutlich.
Very friendly staff
The hot tub, pool and sauna were so nice to use to relax.
The outdoor area is amazing and very well maintained! We really enjoyed the sauna, pool, hot tub, and the outdoor BBQ area with gazebos. The room overall was fine, and the bed and linens were clean and comfortable. Special thanks to the staff, who were very responsive, friendly, and answered our phone call immediately when we had an issue.
The bathroom condition was disappointing: dark/dirty water came out of the tap initially, the drain was clogged with hair and dirty, and the water didn't drain properly. There was also an unpleasant odor in the room. Additionally, parking is an issue: we had a designated spot assigned to our room number, but when we returned late one night, another car was parked there. The staff assigned us another spot right away, but it seems there aren't enough parking spaces for all rooms.
Hot tub is wonderful!
Location & Breakfast were good, need to change mattress , not much comfortable
Location , lower price than other
The location is great, swimming pool, hot tub and best is complimentary breakie from screamers !!! That was a surprise and it was great!

The hosts of the motel were very nice and accommodating. They upgraded us at the moment of checking in.
Accessible, the amenities
N/A
It was close to everything we walk a bit for the good pictures town is beautiful.
It’s a nice stay for the family getaway pool, hot tub was nice our family enjoyed it.
Great location to visit the nearby hot spring and park. We got a breakfast voucher for the Screamers restaurant nearby, that was a nice offer. We had one room with two queens and one room with a double and two single beds. The beds were good.
The ventilation unit was in the window, not the best solution.
Gute Lage, mit Pool und Hot Tub
Die Nachbarn in den Zimmern nebenan waren unangenehm laut und leider gut zu hören.
Enjoyed the pool/ hot tub area a lot. Pool is deep, which was awesome
Cleanliness of unit was not very good.
The new owner is very friendly and has done a lot of outdoor improvements to keep the pool area usable for guests. He has added 3 BBQ areas for guests which is nice. Our bed was comfortable and pillows were nice. It is a great option for families and one of the only motels with an outdoor pool. They also offer free breakfast at Screamers in town and it was very good.
I understand we booked a budget friendly motel and not a high end hotel. I've stayed here before over 15 years but did find our room not as clean as it should be. The floor was dirty and my feet were black after 5 minutes without shoes. There were old dirty finger prints on the walls especially surrounding the bunk beds. I also know the owner is working on renovations to rooms but ours was an original. The refrigerator needs replacing or at least defrosting. Unfortunately the pool heater broke and wasn't repaired until after our stay. Pool was cold as result.
Good central location; our room was a bit dated, however, it was clean and had everything we needed; the kids liked the pool; the owners were very friendly and helpful; I had some problems with the car rental company and the owner spent a lot of time helping me on the phone to sort things out; we received vouchers for breakfast in a nearby restaurant and breakfast was good
Rooms and some facilities could be renewed, e.g. the ventilator at the ceiling couldn't be controlled properly
Die Betten waren bequem.
Die Fotos der Pools und Holzterrassen sind sehr geschickt aufgenommen. Diese Anlagen wurden komplett durch die Großfamilie benutzt, so dass man sich als Gast dort absolut fehl am Platz fühlte. Alles ist unfachmännisch selbst gebaut und wirkt provisorisch. Nebenanlagen sind dreckig, verwahrlost und zum Teil kaputt. Die Lage ist sehr laut an der Hauptverkehrsstraße. Die Unterbringung in den Zimmern hat nichts zu tun mit Holzbau, sondern wirkt eher wie in ehemaligen Garagen. Das Frühstück war in ca. 500m zu Fuß in einem einfachen Eiscafe zu erhalten. Wir hatten Gutscheine für 5 $ -Frühstücksoptionen. Das Essen war sehr wenig und ohne Getränk.
I felt welcome and the amenities were adequate. The pool, hot tub and sauna was what made me choose this hotel over the others. The rustic look was achieved.
I don’t like that there was a dirty standing fan in my room. The cleaning is something easy that could be done. Also, there was no toilet brush in the room so guests could do self cleaning of the toilet bowl at their discretion.
Location, pool, hot tub, beds, room amenities
Room is small. No space to put anything
It was very peaceful. It was clean and the pool and hot tub makes it worth the stay. There were other activities like board games and a grill area provided
The free breakfast was small
Great location! Reasonable price. Clean rooms and beds.
Older motel.
Great place - we especially enjoyed the pool and the hot tub!
Great location near restaurants and Park with a lovely pool. Clean and well-kept.
Not great sleep with bright street lights shining into room (curtains have to be open to let in cool air).
Very quaint property snuggled in the mountains. I loved the rusticness of the swimming pool and hot tub. Great views, except for the smoke in the area. We had a patio that was nice to sit out on and look out at the mountains.
I thought we were going to have two beds, not one bed and two bunks. We were lucky the air temperature cooled off at night because there was no air conditioning. The property did provide a large fan to circulate the air from the patio screen door.
the lay out was interesting. excellent use of space.
it was very unique.
Room, pool, and the hot tub were great! Friendly staff.
Nothing really.
Sehr freundlicher Service
The rooms are clean, owners and staff are lovely. The pool and hot tub are amazing
No AC
Very old and tired
Very old furniture and barhroom
Das Motel liegt in unmittelbarer Nähe zu den Radium Hot Springs und am Eingang zum Nationalpark Banff. Ein idealer Ausgangspunkt für Wandertouren, Rafting und sonstige Outdoor Aktivitäten. Das Frühstück war außergewöhnlich gut. Das Motel arbeitet mit einem kleinen Café in der Nähe zusammen. Alles war frisch zubereitet und es gab sowohl eine vegetarische als auch glutenfreie Option sowie unglaublich leckeren Kaffee. Auch die Poollandschaft haben wir ausgiebig genutzt. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.
Clean with a nice view and location.
It doesn't have a proper air conditioning.
beds was very comfy and rooms was very clean
Los anfitriones son estupendos, super colaboradores y amables. Muy acogedor, con piscina, sauna, jacuzzi y bbq. Las habitaciones amplias y confortables
La.piscina un poco sucia y el desayuno es en una cafetería aparte. Si buscas opciones healthy es difícil pero si no tienes dificultades está bien, tiene tres opciones gratis que no están mal del todo
The motel is maybe the coolest in Radium. Good view from the second floor rooms. The pool is nice and refreshing, and the hottub is huge and warm, and the sauna is a nice dry sauna. It's up a slight incline from "downtown" radium, and right under (south of ) the Hot Springs. The owners, Mary Jo, I think it was, and family, were hospitable and accommodating.
The room was old, like a motel from the 90s, and hasn't been updated much since then, with no AC during these hottest weeks of summer (although that probably doesn't matter outside July and August). The room was clean enough, but doesn't feel particularly clean with the older furniture and fixtures.
Nichts war richtig gut, nichts wirklich schlecht. Alles Mittelmaß. Swimmingpool, Jacuzzi und Sauna habe ich nicht benutzt, waren aber vorhanden und nutzbar.
Ein Ventilator diente als Klimaanlage. Der Kühlschrank kühlen sehr gut, ein zwischenzeitlichen Abtauen täte ihm gut.
Breakfast was ok. Location was good.
No air-conditioning. A little tight for 4 people and lack of power outlets.
We really liked the complimentary breakfast. The beds were also comfortable. The reception lady was very nice.
The driveway into Motel Tyrol is very steep! Some amenities and furniture need to be updated.
Location
Floor so filthy we had to wear shoes inside during our stay. Rotten banana found inside fridge and couldn’t use fridge from smell. Bathtub dirty and moldy so couldn’t bathe our kids. Sketchy pool deck.
Personeel! Leuk gesprek gehad en onderling tips gedeeld. Ontbijt was niet bij accommodatie maar wel op een toplocatie. Eenvoudig ontbijt, maar prima voor het begin van de dag.
Geen stopcontact op logische plek beschikbaar, maar een stekkerdoos onder het bureau
Friendly feel, hottub, BBQ, sauna, balcony
The cold water pipes must run along the hot pipes as the cold taps could run really really hot at times (plus the hot and cold tap in the kitchen were incorrectly marked) - Room 11
This place is awesome! Deep pool, huge hot tub, so many bbqs and fire pits! The bed was comfy and theres a fridge, microwave and coffee maker. Just booked our anniversary there we liked it so much!
Pool area was amazing.
One of the bedrooms didnt have a window and it was very dark.
Pool, hot tub, sauna, bbqs, propane fire tables and a great location near the hot springs.
We didn’t like the breakfast. We ate down the road
De geur in de kamer was verre van fris. Oventje was vies, mijn vingers zaten direct vol der het vet. Vloer badkamer niet schoon. Vloerbedekking kamer en slaapkamer was niet fris. Bank eerst schoongemaakt met als de tafel. Ver wandelen naar je ontbijt.
We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Tyrol in Radium Hot Springs. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well maintained, and the mountain views made the stay even more enjoyable. Treehouse, swimming pool, Hot Tub and Sauna was an add on. You have barbecue spots if needed. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and always willing to help. The location is excellent—close to the hot springs, restaurants, and local attractions, making it a great base for exploring the area. Overall, it was a relaxing and pleasant experience. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting Radium Hot Springs.
nothing
Friendly welcoming staff were quick to help when things broke. Beautiful view of the mountains.
No air conditioning which we knew but didnt expect the bedrooms to not have windows either so it was very warm. Beds hadn't been vacuumed under and could see quite a few repairs were needed.
Hot sona, open deck heated pool and jacuzzi, location and balcony view of mountains
The room didn't have air conditioning, so we had to use the fan, but it was too loud to sleep comfortably. The swimming pool was also disappointing. The water didn't look clean, and it seemed like it hadn't been properly filtered or changed. One of the main reasons I chose this hotel was because it had a swimming pool, but in the end, we couldn't use it because of the water quality.
Easy to get to and has parking
Not very clean. Quite dated.
We were very happy with this place. The motel is not new but very clean which in my opinion is the most important factor. The room was very cozy.
Beautiful location with views amazing pool sauna and Hot tub location great added BBQ facilities
Location was great, and I was impressed by the amenities (the pool/spa/sauna, bbq areas, and hammock exceeded my expectations). I loved sitting in the hammock and looking at the mountains. The rooms were clean and everything was functional. The breakfast was also delicious - you get a voucher for a meal at a nearby cafe. I thought Motel Tyrol was better than the surrounding motels. The staff was super friendly and helpful.
It’s easy access and proximity to the hot spring. Older but neat and tidy. Appreciate they are pet friendly
Nothing other than no ac but the afternoon mountain breeze kept us quite comfortable.
Good staff very welcoming great view
Nothing
The layout of the room was nice.
The ceiling fan was a little bit dusty.
Good breakfast, super service!
Outside doorway and windows need cleanimg.
There was quite and clean
Breakfast wasn't good, facilities wasn't enough
Location
Wonderful accommodations. The staff were super kind and helpful. The place really went above and beyond my expectations from how it was advertised and the price I paid.
We didn't have many lighting options besides the lamps and lights under the counter so it was quite dark. The driveway going to the parking spot was also a little uneven and steep.
Friendly helpful owners! Excellent location for traveling through the area. Breakfast vouchers were great
It’s a climb to the pool but it’s worth the view! Wish it’d open earlier is all
De locatie
De hygiene alles was veroudert en slecht onderhouden
For its age it’s been upgraded and well maintained, the hotel provided an experience with the pool, hot tub and hangout areas behind the hotel. The bed was super comfortable and the rooms were so clean! We will definitely be going back!
The pool and outside area was amazing!! Would stay here again just for that reason! The breakfast was good. Staff were very friendly!
The fridge didn’t work in our room, we had to throw out all our food. Asked them to look at it, but it didn’t get fixed, tried to tell them about it the next morning but the door to the office was locked. The fans felt like they were going to come off the roof (very wobbly) And we couldn’t turn off the light but keep the fan going. The stand alone fans were very dirty and one of them didn’t work.
Great staff, great room, great bed, great location. We enjoyed our stay and highly recommend Motel Tyrol to anyone visiting Radium Hot Springs or passing through.
Location is perfect, and i like the hillside pool and picnic areas. View is great too
Not that i don’t like, it’s an old motel, kinda outdated room, but looks clean, and bed is comfortable.
Rooms were comfy and cool despite no AC. The pool and hot tub area are fantastic. Recommend to all my friends and family
Nothing.
very comfortable beds, awesome hot pools, and super nice private decks at the back with great views! Pleasant surprise!
Very clean, great bed and amenities!!
Loved everything!!
The included breakfast is good. Location also beautiful. Staff is soooooo friendly and willing to introduce the story about the town.
There were some big ant in my room and hot tub outside. Well, not a big issue, it's natural.
Good and comfortable bed and amenities. Great value for money and well located near hot springs and other in town amenities. Great hosts and enjoyed the wildlife too. Spa and calm back yard area were much appreciated.
Needs a even a small iwindow for cross ventilation. Fan was provided but needed to leave deck door to common deck area open( with wooden dowel on track for security( for fresh air
I ended up changing my room to a single person, and they were absolutely wonderful . The staff is so friendly and welcoming. I would stay there again.
I liked everything out the place
The breakfast and surrounding area was great. The whole property was cute and very family oriented.
We didn't see any ice machine on property but we never asked if there was one. Lol
The location was great. The breakfast was good.nothing
There was not really anything I did not like.
Staff is professional, helpful, and kind. Great local advice! View from the green space/firepit/bbq/pool area is beautiful. Nice lil sauna and a swim spa too. This place is a gem. Worth every penny. 🤙🏼
Its location and the facilities available. These owners were very welcoming and helpful. Very good value for money.
Could have had a few more items in the kitchen as self catering.
Nice motel simple but good enough, I like complementary breakfast in Screamer
Swimming pool looks not nice because of no water, need a little bit gardening around swimming pool area
Location nice small place good service all was great
Thanks
I love the place. I know it’s gonna be hot in the sun when there’s no air-conditioning but there’s a couple fans in the room and it seems safe enough that you could probably prop the door open. It’s such a sweet little Place.
They gave us free breakfast, but they put the menu in the lobby and it did not seem desirable. Some people might like that but it’s not everyone’s cup of tea but again like I said some people might think it’s amazing breakfast. We never tried it so I can’t really be a critic about it.
Upgraded to a king room. It was comfy
Was a bit loud being right off the highway but we expected that.
Breakfast included at a nearby cafe. The hot tub was large.
The room was small and dated.
Central location
Old facilities, plumbing in bathroom did not work right. Room had an old musty smell. Parking was impossible at the back with a large truck.
Great location, loved the breakfast
The owner Mike was super knowledgeable and down to Earth at check in. We felt very welcome. We would choose Motel Tyrol again.
All was good, some of the facility could use some minor sprucing up, but no biggies. It's a little quirky and very fun
Very close to downtown and Radium Hot Springs
The coffee maker was leaking, and there was only one tea bag for a family of 4 for 2 nights, and the bathtub plug didn't work.
Great location and amenities. Very cute! The pool/hot tub area and the fireplace in the room were particularly awesome.
I wish more towels were left in the room. The breakfast at a nearby cafe was not amazing, but at least there was breakfast included.
Great location, staff were very nice and made us feel welcome.
Not much really it’s an older cheap hotel it’s not modern inside but it’s a roof over your head with a clean bed what else can you ask for. Loved the concept for breakfast being a smaller motel partnering with local business to provide guests breakfast but I think the location and options should be revised, the business owner at breakfast was not friendly and made us feel like we we’re cheapskates, and I don’t even want to mention the food.
