Returned to this motel after 50 years. It is still run by members of the same family. The original motel has almost quadrupled in number of units. The rooms are well decorated ,and five of the older units are being renovated at present. The new furnishings have been well selected. There is a very useful separate table and chairs for card and game-playing guests. The only thing missing in the rooms are a coffee maker and tea kettle, but this is not really a problem because Tim Horton’s is only a step away; literally in the same parking lot. The owners, Kathy and Bryan David are very friendly and helpful.

This is an excellent choice for a motel in Cochrane. It is on Highway 11 but set far enough back that there is no issue with highway noise. The owners ask for quiet after 11 PM so that guests can get a good night sleep. The rooms are fairly large and well furnished with desk, table, chairs, and dresser with drawers. Everything is well maintained and clean. There are no coffee makers in the room but Tim Hortons is about a one minute walk across the parking lot. Frig and microwave were available in the room and ice is obtained from an ice machine in the office. Free WiFi is available and works well. The owners are very knowledgeable about Cochrane and very approachable if you have any questions about the area. Great location, quality rooms, very reasonable price and friendly…

The Westway is a very clean and tidy independent hotel located in downtown Cochrane. We have stayed here each winter for the past few years on our annual snowmobile trip. You can park your sleep right outside your hotel room but there is also a central hallway. Ne of the buildings so you don't always have to go outside to visit your neighbours. Tom Hortons is right next door and the Yamaha dealer is across the road. So is a gas station. Snowmobiling trails are right near by.

We are avid snowmobile enthusiasts. Westway has been both a destination while touring and a base camp. The rooms are large, clean and comfortable. The family owned establishment has been around for over 50 years so they know how to take care of your lodging needs and requirements. Westway works great as a base camp because you can do day trips 150 plus out and back or use it as a stop over for your "big loop" trips. Tim H is right across the street so breakfast is quick and easy, not to mention good old Northern Ontario hospitality. Everyone is friendly and welcoming. The polar opposite of the snubbing you get in Quebec. 10 minute walk or quick cab ride down the road you've JR'S for some of the best ribs and steaks around. There's also beer and alcohol options near by that are…
