Every time I've been to Cochrane, I'm always drawn to the Westway, whether for a night or a few days. Being family own definitely has advantages. Well maintained, very clean rooms, relaxing atmosphere and always welcomed with friendly smiles. Easy access with ample parking, amenities are very close by, only a few minutes away from the train station, or downtown.
The best way for a quiet, relaxing night is the Westway.

The staff were somewhat welcoming, the room was clean and the beds were comfortable but when all is said and done it is really just a typical motel and like most motels it is older and could use some TLC. The room was big enough but the bathroom was so small that you had to step in behind the toilet (or into the bathtub) in order to close the door. No breakfast, no coffee maker in the room and no coffee even in the office - but if you mention it they will give you a Tim Horton's coupon to walk across the street for a coffee and a bagel. I have stayed in dozens of hotels and motels over the years and I felt that The Westway was just an overpriced motel. The problem is that there is not much to choose from in the area.

Hello Ontario88, Sorry to hear that you did not enjoy your stay at The Westway. It seems that you stayed in one of our smaller rooms priced lower than our larger and more updated rooms. On your future travels in the area feel free to stop in and request one of our larger rooms. Thank you -Westway Motel

We stayed at the Westway Motel New Year's Day for 2 nights. Very nice cosy clean comfortable room with fridge and microwave and complimentary coupon for Tim Horton coffee and bagel or muffin (which is a very short walk from the motel, very convenient). We were there for a family member's funeral so it was so nice to have a nice place to stay with such nice people as the owners.

AS always, great place to stay and very pleasant. Rooms are clean and recently renovated. Timmies right next door and several restaurants close by. The snowmobile trails are very close access and even the local Taxi drivers are friendly.

Have stayed here several times and it is a fantastic find. Modern, comforting decor. Beds and pillows are super, super comfortable and bedding is CLEAN! No perfume is used to launder bedding or cleaning of rooms so great for perfume allergy sufferers like me. Highly recommend.

Having read the reviews for multiple motels in Cochrane, we chose the Westway Motel. It was exactly as the good reviews stated. The Queen room was $99 a night for 2 people. It had a comfortable bed and quality sheets, microwave and fridge. The bathroom has been updated and the whole room was spotlessly clean. Flat screen TV and a loveseat for 2 to sit, eat and watch. We were in the block of rooms that had a hall in the middle and out in the hall was a microwave, ice machine, pop machine and ironing board for those who didn't have them in the rooms. The place was filled with snowmobilers!! and things weren't to loud so we were lucky :) The lady at the front desk was very helpful and friendly. It was convenient to have Tim Horton's right next door but i went over and paid for extra cups, sugar and tea bags, kept a small container of cream in the fridge, so I could microwave a hot tea whenever I came back from snowmobiling. All the rooms had block heater plug ins hanging from the eaves out in front of the room so everyone could plug their truck/car in in the -28c weather. Now that's thoughtful!!! Along with the 'rag' poem that I have added pictures of, this motel has definitely thought about you and what you might need.
The cons were that parts of the room were a bit shabby, wallpaper and loveseat were from back in the day lol but generally, for a small Northern Ontario town motel, it was much much better than I have experienced in other towns in my travels. Clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. I would stay here again and recommend it to friends.

Very clean establishment and owners manage it very well. We were granted a later check-out time based on our travel plans with no hassle. Convenient location beside Tim Horton's and across the road from Gas. There was no noise from other units. I will stay again.

The rooms are outdated and the bathrooms are very small. Heating systems were noisy during the night and made it hard to sleep. The only good thing is that the motel is situated next to Tim Horton's.

I have stayed at many 5-star hotels and resorts and this is by far the cleanest room I have ever slept in (albeit a little dated). The staff are friendly and courteous. The rooms are spacious. The price is right. Highly recommended.
