My husband I traveled to Canmore for a quiet getaway in the winter. After checking out a few of the B & B's in Canmore we chose the Riverview and Main to stay. We are very impressed with the spacious, clean rooms and the lovely common area to sit in the evening. Our hosts (Peter and Yuki) treated us to... More

We've stayed at this lovely B & B in both the winter and summer season. Perfect central location - very quiet and close to the walking path along the river. It is also an easy walk to interesting little shops and restaurants along Main Street. The rooms are spotlessly clean and comfortable with great views. We particularly like the guest... More

We were so pleased to have experienced your friendly and helpful hospitality. The room was clean and had an awe inspiring view of the majestic mountains--the sun was shining and it took my breath away. Breakfast was good and well presented.

Stayed here for a night and found the room to be really nice, clean and pretty and centrally located. There was a door in the room leading to the outdoor communal patio area with patio chairs overlooking a park and super mountain views. There were a couple of stale chocolate mints in a dish in the room on arrival and... More

This is a find: We had a large, clean, attractive room with a queen bed (comfortable mattress) and a private “ensuite” bath. Breakfast was good – fruit, rolls, eggs, bacon, etc., served hot and with friendly old-fashioned politeness by Japanese owners Yuki and Peter. I am baffled by otherwise comments. No nighttime noise from the highway or trains, since the... More

Room was beautiful, comfortable bed, nice deck. Food.... Sad, insipid, disrepected. I could've had a better breakfast spending the night in the drunk tank in jail. Not entirely welcoming, but not unkind. If one is dedicating their interest and effort into running a bed and breakfast, please try harder.

Dear Hayzues, We deeply regret the experience you had with our breakfast. Our hot breakfasts change daily especially if you are staying with us for a few nights so as to not bore your tastebuds. Most breakfasts will include fresh home made bread and or home made pastries, fresh seasonal fruit from the market, eggs, and some sort of meat,... More

We stayed at this B&B in Canmore, Alberta and were disappointed with it. The room was really pretty with an adjoining communal balcony and TV room. We stayed 4 nights and the hosts, Yuki and Peter Shimizu never once cleaned the bathroom or room or emptied the garbage. We ended up taking out our own garbage! On 2 occasions the... More
