Try the Waterton Glacier Suites. The rooms are clean & decent size, and most of them have a fireplace. I have also stayed at both the Crandell Mountain Lodge and the El Cortez before and both were pretty.....well, rustic. The El Cortez has recently been re-done and is now called the Bear Mountain Motel, so it may have been fixed up. The Waterton Lakes Resort is also supposed to be very nice, but I have never stayed there myself.

If you want something a little more historical, try the Prince of Wales hotel. It's no Banff Springs, but the service is very good and the view is worth a million bucks. The rooms are a little on the small side, but you're paying for the experience. It's haunted too, so lock your door at night.
