Anonymous guest from London, GB stayed on June 25, 2004

"The hotel does not have air conditioning in the rooms just fans and only very small windows to open. It was much to hot in the room while we were there in summer and the hotal guest services were not much help. For a hotel charging the prices they charge in summer I would expect better."

Recommends the hotel to others? No

 

Robert from York, GB stayed on December 29, 2003

"The room was cold and staff did not seem to bothered when I mentioned this on check out. The comment at reception was " Well it's very cold out at the moment but we will have it looked at". The actual problem was a poor quality seal round the window. Additionally for such a top class hotel the room could have been cleaner with dust deposits on the tea/coffee tray and in the bathroom. This again was mentioned at departure. Otherwise this is a beautiful location and a wonderful hotel."

"
A hotel for the outdoor adventurer and alpinist

was the vision Cornelius Van Horne, General Manager of Canadian Pacific Railway, had in mind for the chalet on the shores of Lake Louise. Built in 1890, two years after its sister hotel The Fairmont Banff Springs, the chalet was a simple structure in contrast. A single level wooden structure consisting of a veranda, sitting room, kitchen and a bedroom. Visitors to Lake Louise numbered no more than one hundred in a summer season and were mainly climbers, artists and scenery photographers. In the early 1900s, visitors to the area increased to more than 5,000 and this was considered enough to demand an expansion of the chalet. Two Tudor-style, half-timbered wings were added and increased its capacity from a dozen guests to 240. In 1913, a concrete wing was completed, adding the grand Victoria Dining room and new bedrooms. On July 3, 1924, a fire of undetermined cause destroyed the wooden structure of the hotel. Within a year Canadian Pacific Railway rebuilt a new eight-story brick wing to join the Painter wing of 1913, and changed the hotel name to Chateau Lake Louise. Up until 1982, the Chateau operated only as a summer resort. The transformation to a four-season resort prompted the need for a large upgrade program. In 1990, after a $65 million investment, the restoration and expansion was completed. The new Glacier Wing added 140 guest rooms, all original guest rooms have been refurbished, a Western Saloon has been added, as well as new dining outlets and shopping facilities. The Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise is beautifully suited for a second century of elegant hospitality in extraordinary surroundings.
