Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise

Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise is a wonderful hotel in a unique location. From arrival, to check-in, during our stay and even at check out; we were treated exceptionally well by all the staff. Our room was, of course, perfectly clean, quiet and very comfortable. A fine view over the Lake was the icing on the cake. Understandably, the area is extremely popular but when most of the day visitors have left, it becomes an even more special place. The dining options are very good and our meal at "Fairview" was lovely. A trip to nearby Lake Moraine organised by hotel in their shuttle is highly recommended. Thanks again to all the staff who made our stay so memorable. We'll be back!

We arrived FC Lake Louise and were absolutely delighted with how we were welcomed! We knew we were upgraded but didn’t realise until we arrived we were upgraded to Fairmont Gold Experience! What a fantastic surprise, complementary wine, flowers, chocolates in our absolutely stunning room with breathtaking view over Lake Louise. Anna at Gold Reception desk welcomed us & informed us of the delightful canapés, drinks hot & cold (non alcoholic) that we enjoyed as part of our stay between 5-7 pm. The room is a mini suite with every comfort imaginable, bed extremely comfortable and air conditioning was not noisy as experienced in other accommodation. The complementary toiletries, soap , shower gel , shampoo are luxurious and enjoyable! Breakfast in the Gold Lounge was really something else. Romeo (omelette chef) & Rouel (& all other staff) have been so kind and helpful. (We booked via Hays Jesmond in Newcastle & Prestige Tour Co and they have exceeded our expectations)!

Room was awesome. Dinner in the Waliser Stire restaurant was top shelf. Excellent service and quality of the food. We ordered the 3-course fixed price meal. The breakfast buffer is well worth the $45. You can order hot food from the menu, plus visit the cold buffet. We were encouraged to take pastry and coffee to go. You could order any espresso drink too. This is all included in the buffet price. A great value. The attention to detail from check-in to turn down service to check-out was spot on. It's not cheap but well worth the cost.

The Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise is a beautiful hotel located in a stunningly beautiful location. I have always wanted to stay in this hotel since my first trip to Banff. I booked a room with a lakeside view. Although it was on the smaller side, there was enough space for all of my luggage. The breakfast was incredible! My server, Julie, was very attentive, polite, and friendly. After breakfast almost every day, I would walk the paved trail around part of the lake. It was like being in a postcard. Overall, It was an unforgettable stay.

You pay a LOT, but you absolutely get what you paid for. I booked during the off-season, booking a mountain-view room for roughly $600.00 - a bit steep for me, but when in Rome right? Anyway, I am guessing due to the offseason, I was upgraded for free to a lake view room (usually about $1,100.00), so that was an awesome surprise! The grounds, it goes without saying, are majestic. And I don't use that word lightly. Lake Louise is absolutely stunning. The gentleman at check-in was super kind, courteous and had a good sense of humour. For parking, you have the option of valet, or self-parking if you'd prefer. Dinner was really good, but for the prices, the portions were tiny. But to be fair, I knew what I was getting. It's part of the experience really. There are restaurants in town that are much cheaper. Breakfast was freaking awesome. They have the standard cold food continental breakfast section, but on steroids lol The selection is closer to the hotels I stayed at in Iceland (a country that absolutely takes its hotel breakfast selection VERY seriously), but you could also order hot breakfast too, or a bit of both! I can't say enough positives about my experience, just again, the price might be an issue. But you get what you pay for (and then some, in my case)!
