I had high hopes for this hotel based on the website, but unfortunately, it fell short of expectations. The rooms felt old and unclean, and the atmosphere was rather off-putting. While the location seems to have its perks, I wouldn't choose to stay here again given the state of the facilities and the lack of staff when we arrived.

The Snowy Owl has a lot of potential due to its location and spacious rooms, but unfortunately, it suffers from outdated decor and a lack of amenities. The cleaning was adequate, but the breakfast options were quite disappointing. It serves well for a ski getaway but may leave you wanting if you're after a more upscale experience.

Our ski trip was enjoyable thanks to the spacious rooms that easily accommodated our family of five along with all our gear. However, the hotel lacked a hot tub and the breakfast options were quite underwhelming, which was disappointing. Overall, it served its purpose for a skiing getaway, but some areas need improvement to enhance the experience.

I found the hotel to have a lovely and unique charm, nestled in a nice area for a getaway. While the rooms definitely need an update, I appreciated the quaint atmosphere. However, the service left much to be desired as it was sparse and confused at times. And let's just say the place could use a thorough cleaning and some maintenance to improve overall comfort.

My stay at Snowy Owl Inn was incredibly disappointing. The room was definitely dated and lacked cleanliness, with stains and an awful smell that were hard to ignore.

It’s not a place I’d recommend, especially given the pricing which felt unjustified for the quality offered.
