Travel in Style:Canmore

Wine in Canmore

Living in Edmonton I find it necessary to escape, frequently. When I was younger I spent almost every weekend in the mountains, slowly but surely they became a second home to me. Naturally, as an adult I have grown to really appreciate my childhood & being able to spend much of it in the mountains.

To kick off #mcjtravels I  figured there was no better way to start then to take a trip to my “second home”. With Canmore being a short 4 hour drive from home it was a no brainer.

Traveling in style is something I’ve become accustomed too, and when I say “in style” , I mean fashionably, luxuriously and deliciously… because there really is no other way.

When picking hotels I always look for a few key things to avoid a bad experience:
-cleanliness
-location
-comfort
-good service
-reviews
-a view

Canmore thankfully has a lot of options, the one that we chose was the Grande Rockies! It fit the bill for all my “travel necessities” !

Living room in Canmore

We had a room with a beautiful view of the Three Sisters, which is one of most iconic views of the Rockies… to say it was perfection is a huge understatement.

The room itself was spacious, cozy and well thought out: it even had a kitchenette– which is a total bonus if you enjoy midnight snacks like me!

The location was fabulous for walking into town to enjoy some of the delectable eats that
Canmore has to offer such as Red Rock Pizza or my forever favorite The Grizzly Paw!

If you’re ever in need of a quick getaway I highly suggest spending a weekend in Canmore at the Grande Rockies!
