Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise

Exchange Destination

Nestled on the eastern shore of the iconic glacial Lake Louise in Banff National Park, Alberta, Canada, the Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise is a grand railway‑era resort that opened in 1890 (initially as a log cabin) and has evolved over more than a century into a majestic, year‑round luxury destination. With 539 rooms and suites across its historic and modern wings—including the 1913 Painter Wing and the 2004 Mount Temple Wing—the hotel offers alpine‑colonial decor, fine dining across seven restaurants, and immersive outdoor access for hiking, canoeing, skiing, and more. Known as a landmark luxurious retreat, it’s now introducing Basin Glacial Waters, a new Nordic‑inspired thermal spa opening in late summer 2025, offering infinity pools, saunas, cold plunges, and spa journeys overlooking the Victoria Glacier
