Description
The Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise is a Fairmont Hotel on the eastern shore of Lake Louise, near Banff, Alberta Canada. The hotel was first conceived by the Canadian Pacific Railway at the end of the 19th century as a vacation destination to lure moneyed travellers into taking trains and heading West. By the time airplanes and automobiles displaced the trains, the hotel had gained sufficient renown to have a life of its own. In 1999, Canadian Pacific Hotels (a division of the Canadian Pacific Railway) acquired Fairmont Hotels and Resorts, and adopted the Fairmont name for all of its hotels, resulting the in the Chateau Lake Louise being operated as a Fairmont hotel. All of the natural areas around the hotel have been incorporated into the Banff National Park, which is UNESCO World Heritage Site.
