    Thanksgiving dinner at the Royal Stewart Dining Room - Waterton, Alberta was a disappointment. The lack of any decor ie, tablecloth, placemat, centre piece reflected a "no care" attitude. Advertised dress code was "smart casual" however ball caps were worn & other attire that did not reflect the dress code. There was no attempt to correct this & no one at the door to suggest taking off the ball caps. A national hotel dining room??? Shame The servers were truly overworked & did their utmost to serve in a difficult situation. The Thanksgiving dinner was unique & the chefs deserve a compliment. I do hope that next Thanksgiving will correct the mentioned above observations.

    Incredible view, staff are amazing and the food is amazing. The only thing that would make it better would be to add a vegetarian option to the entrees but there were options in the starters and it was a grand experience.

    What a beautiful environment and view! The service was outstanding from every person I encountered. The food was okay, some of the things were delicious and some were just meh but they certainly serve a generous amount. A little pricey but definitely a worthy experience.

    Royal tea experience was excellent. Seated in the front with a gorgeous view of the lake and mountains. Service was first rate, food was impeccable. An improvement could be to add shades for the high window to block some of the intense afternoon sun. We were extremely uncomfortable with a mild temperature day but full afternoon sun. The service staff could have offered fans as well to make it more comfortable. The close quarters and varied starting times meant we overheard the tea selection explanation at least 5 times, so privacy is not considered or available in this space.

    It was so amazing!!! I booked the Royal tea experience and had an amazing view of the mountains and lake while enjoying the most amazing teas and goodies! Felt like going back in time because of ambiance of the 1927 atmosphere!
