Maligne Lodge

It's a budget hotel that could use a refurbishment, but everything was looked and smelled clean. Pets were popular here and we requested a non-pet room and we were happy with it. The bed was comfortable but the doors, floors, and walls were pretty thin. The street is generally quiet though. Office Filipino staff were friendly and accommodating, and the young handyman was very nice too. We had an issue with the shower and help came quickly. The location is nice being on the edge of town and just a 15 min walk to the centre. Parking was a little tight so we were happy we had a little car. The toiletries were swanky for a budget hotel. Board games available to borrow from the office and they have a microwave there too. Actually microwaves available on request and we were pleased to find a mini fridge in our room. This place was a little nicer than the Jasper Inn & Suites we stayed at previously, but we might try another place next time, although the price was hard to beat here.

This hotel was well priced for the quality. Everything was very clean and staff was very friendly. Beds were super comfortable. I like the fact that it was a bit further from all the hustle and bustle of the noise of downtown. A nice little 10-minute walk was nice.nnThe only issue that could be improved, is the time the pool/ hot tub was opened until; 9 pm was very early and most places are at least 10pm. The idea time should be 11pm as we would have liked to wind down later in the evening after all of our activities. In addition, the swimming pool could be much warmer. we didn't even go in because it was too cold. The hot tub could have been warmer too. Also was a little too close for comfort with strangers. A commercial hot tub would have been better. Kind of felt gross sitting so close to strangers. We normally hang out in the pool when that happens, but being so cold in there it wasn't possible.nnOtherwise all was great. Smooth check-in/ check-out. Thank you.

My partner and I just stayed here at the end of February 2024. On arrival we weren’t sure what to expected as the exterior is a little dated. But we had a really lovely stay, for a small fee we upgraded to a junior suite and the room was lovely, we had great service and the walk to town is short and easy!!nWicked cup served an amazing breakfast and great coffee!nOn our second night, we went in the hot pub and briefly in the pool. That night we both experienced rashes and very itchy skin, which is only just subsiding, 3 days later! We don’t have sensitive skin and I’ve stayed in hot tubs and pools much longer than we did that night, and never had this issue! The itchiness was unbearable sometimes!nWhatever was in the water was that strong it has also bleached our swimwear, which is very eye opening!nWe informed the front desk but I received a slightly sympathetic apology, it didn’t seem like they had any real concern for this.nI just wanted to share for anyone else staying who may use the facilities, maybe to be mindful of this!nGreat stay otherwise!!nPictures below, you can see how dark the bikini was originally around the edges

We stayed just the one night but it was very nice. True, the place is older but the room was clean and had everything we needed. Staff were friendly and helpful. There were even treats in the room for our small dog! Will definitely stay again.

Parking is available outside each room. Parking is first come, first serve. Might be a little tight for some big vehicles, but it was more than sufficient for my jeep. There is a gym and pool available to the guests and a coffee shop that opens at 7:30 am right beside the front desk. The rooms are small but cozy and clean, I was happy with it. I used a 3rd party app to book a night here, and it was still very easy to check in I know there are sometimes complications with 3rd party bookings and hotels. Office staff was very friendly, quick, accommodating, and efficient at getting us checked in. The location is very convenient, just on the edge of town and about a 15-20 minute leisurely walk from Jasper downtown. I would like to return here for my next visit to Jasper :
