The Raging Elk Adventure Lodging

Pros: The staff were super friendly, the bar was great and the karaoke was super fun.

Cons: Slightly expensive, very loud in room, not for people who dont like to party

Good place, but needs improvements.

Pros: Overall, I really enjoyed my stay. It was my first time staying at this place, and if I return to Fernie, I will definitely stay here again. I appreciated the atmosphere, the concept, and the overall experience. The place is pleasant and well located, which makes it a great option for staying in Fernie. Overall, my experience was very positive.

Cons: However, there are a few important points that need improvement. First, the mattress in the luxury dorm pods was not very comfortable. It was a plastic mattress, similar to the type used for children or for bedwetting protection, which really affected the comfort. Second, the biggest issue was with the refrigerators. None of them seemed to work properly, and it was impossible to maintain a safe temperature for food. I even had to fix the fridge I was using myself because both the fridge and freezer doors had remained open all night. My food was at room temperature, with water in my container coming from the freezer that had completely thawed. This is not very hygienic and raises serious food safety concerns. I believe the refrigerators clearly lack maintenance. Finally, I found it disappointing that the establishment does not recycle rigid plastic. I asked the front desk about this, and they told me that the municipality of Fernie does not recycle this type of plastic. Still, from an environmental perspective, this was disappointing. This was the only major downside of an otherwise very pleasant stay.

Adequate for what I paid for, no complaints.

Pros: The room was clean and the staff was approachable and helpful when I needed it.

Cons: A little small and lacking in furniture. A bit of paint peeling in the bathroom. None of this is bothersome, as I wasn't paying for a luxury hotel room. All in all, it was more than fine for what I needed.

Pros: Comfy bed although had to put fan on during night as quite hot. Quiet as a distance from the railway line. A little tired looking but functional.

Best value for money and a very comfortable stay all and all

Pros: Pods were very tidy and well laid out. Good locker at head of bed, coat hooks, fan etc. very comfortable Facilities were awesome, cool bar to drink at or hang out front. Downstairs felt like a proper legacy of backpacking / hostels, good open areas with pool table table tennis etc

Cons: N/A

This place to stay, at the value rate, in this 'money' environment? Doesn't get better....

Pros: the room were good value for the price. Shower and toiletries and towels excellent. Open windows to the outside allowed you to vent your own sliding window to your personal preference. My wing was very quiet, I slept well on the firm mattress in the quiet end of the hall, room 26. Cool place for any travellers budget. Breakfast must be had at Mugshot Cafe a few blocks away. Excellent value, excellent hashbrowns - old school.

Cons: Wifi needs some attention or its operator error??

Great value location for travellers supported by good facilities to explore the wonderful Fernie region.

Pros: Great location, good facilities. Entertainment on the deck and bar were great extras.

Cons: NA

For a traveller you can’t Beat this place good beer too

Pros: Easy to find & perfect for travellers as it had an underground secure storage

Cons: Toilets men’s were functional but dated

Just what was promised and what we were looking for for a fair price.

Pros: Quite basic, but exactly what we were looking for. Staff was friendly and the cider in the bar was cool. Just what we were looking for!

Nice staffs, great location.

Pros: It was conveniently located near downtown and the hostel staffs were nice.

Cons: It was kinda little dusty underneath the mattress.
