閃奕山度假村及水療中心(Sparkling Hill Resort and Spa - Adults-Only Resort)

Great resort, couldnt get a spa date booked and was disappointed in that but overall great hotel

Imagine yourself at the top of a mountain relaxing in a spectacular room with an awesome nature and lake view. This is Sparkeling Hill Spa Resort. Then pamper yourself with a Lavender oil massage What a wonderful experience!! Pristine clean rooms with comfy beds…treat yourself… you will love it…and the staff are very friendly and accommodating

Friend & I had a “Girls Getaway”. Beautiful rooms, lots of relaxing activities. Took part in a stretch class as well as some treatments. Book early if you want treatments!! There is lots of hiking trails too. Restaurants and staff were delightful. A perfect place to unwind with such amazing scenery.

We arrived after a long drive having travelled across Canada (taking in 5 hotels in total) and were initially wowed by the friendly check in service and then the amazing view from our room, plus the freestanding bath in the room. However there was nowhere to conveniently put our cases, so we had to store them under the beds. But we noted there were only toiletries for one person, the sliding door in the toilet had no actual handle, and was difficult to close. The 3 pull down blinds for the huge windows let at least 4” of light in either side which blazed into the room, thus waking us up earlier than we’d have liked. No complimentary water at all-we asked for some at reception and it never arrived. No coffee or tea making either- surely this should be a given? The service in the cocktail bar was just awful-we arrived 40 mins before our dinner reservation for a calm drink and as there was only one waiter doing all the drinks, they arrived after 35 mins. We asked the waitress if she could let the restaurant know (just one floor up) we would be a bit late and she said she wasn’t able to!! We came back from a trip on the second day to find a wet, dirty cleaning rag left on the desk and the beds had not been properly made-just the duvets thrown roughly back. No toiletries had been replenished either. We went to reception to politely complain and the duty manager we spoke to listened to our concerns and refunded us one cocktail each and got our room cleaned while we waited downstairs. That night, when we had an early start the next day, there was a very noisy group of women upstairs who kept us awake. We called reception to ask if they could deal with this and during the call, the reception was more interested in verifying our credit card details from check in, than dealing with the actual complaint! Dinner and breakfast were great however- our dinner waitress Shannon was wonderful and Jess for our last breakfast was also cheerful, and efficient. The food was also excellent with lots of vegan options (is we are not vegans!). The spa was beautiful, with an outdoor heated infinity pool overlooking the lake. But the ladies showers were filthy and needed a good scrub. In summary-beautiful building and rooms, but scratch the surface and the staff seemed rather uncertain and inexperienced. Basics like water and coffee/ tea in the room, in a hotel of this calibre should be a given basic standard. Two water stations in the whole hotel is not adequate (one was out of order the whole time). We stayed at many places during our trip and this was the only hotel we had any issues with. Such a shame

Location - great. Rooms - dated, great for early 2000s, but it's been 20 years since then. TV might soon become a museum early LCD item. Clean enough, 8-9/10. Staff - hit and miss, seemed a little stressed, generally nice. Food - save your money, glorified yogurts, tasteless dishes, like you almost feel ashamed to pretend you're impressed, but... seriously, send some of your chefs incognito to Lake Louise for God's sake. Spas - nothing ground-breaking.

Hi Calgary zoo always one of the best zoos to go see and never stops with the little side action from the animals playing around. Great place to visit the polar bears are get and very entertaining to watch both of them. Crazy that the larges one is over 1100 pounds and the smallest one is over 900 pounds. The resent Reno’s in the zoo are very good. Highly recommended to go

Sparkling Hill does not disappoint. Another fantastic getaway! Excellent breakfast, relaxing sauna’s and steam rooms. Love the view from the infinity pool. Awesome soaker tubs in the room and comfortable beds. Great walking trails and gorgeous views.

Sadly I’m writing this review in hopes that CHANGES will happen!!! First this Was my 18 time to the resort as I use to love going here sadly it will probably be my last I had booked three nights with a girlfriend who it was her first time and definitely her last she said.our first night was beautiful besides that that two of the spas had no working hand held showers to rinse off your seat which is very unsanitary so I chose to use other spas The next day woke up to no shower caps in your room so I had to go to the front desk and ask for two not a big deal then there toilet paper use to be nice they have replaced it with very rough inexpensive paper. The Day before our stay I was contacted via email about my up coming stay and if I needed anything I called and asked for a kettle for in my room as when you stay three nights I like to be able at night to have a cup of tea in the past no problem to do that now I was told I would have to order room service or buy my tea from the Little restaurant so I brought my own kettle from home only to find out when I got there that they still had kettles if asked for them so they need inform there staff better I was upset about this but again it’s really just a small minor thing Then the fridge in our room froze our champagne and all our food and it actually exploded making a huge mess they cleaned the room and replaced our champagne and gave us charcuterie wich was fair as it was there fridge that was not working Next they rented 80 rooms to a group that was there on a conference for two nights that night the pools were full of these guests who were drinking shouting being rude it did not stop there they kept us up till 3 am that night this is a Wellness Spa not a party place I woke up to go to swim my morning laps to a dirty pool and puke 🤮 in the hall way that one of the groups partier were cleaning up we went and complained they promised it would not happen a second night at 1002 pm I was awaken by them again i jumped out of bed and went and dealt with them my self as there was no staff around to help out and no one answered the front desk so we decided that we would see if we could extend our stay for forth night as we wanted to enjoy a night so they gave us a discount on the room only to have the pool have no heat we would have never extended our stay if we had known that and when we went to complain it was like they did not know but yet there was a rooter rooter truck there since morning and returned the next day also they have updated the sitting chair in the room but NOT the beds so mine was ok but my girlfriends bed had a huge gaping whole in it she was very uncomfortable but they were sold out of room so we could not change rooms The dining was amazing and our favourite server Jesica was there every morning to take care of us we also booked my favourite salt scrub that I get every time I go there but it had gone up from $95 to $129 for a 45 min service and really it’s less then that as you are sho
