Location & What's Nearby 


The hotel sits directly on the shore of Lake Louise, with the water's edge just steps from the front door. Fairview Lookout and the Lake Agnes Tea House trail both start nearby, giving you a route into the mountains without needing to drive. Lake Louise Ski Resort is around a 10 minute drive away, and the village, with its shops and restaurants, is close by. Moraine Lake and the Icefields Parkway are within easy reach for a day out, and Calgary International Airport is a 2 hour transfer. 

Why We Recommend It 


In our experience, this is the location for travellers who want to wake up to the iconic view of Lake Louise rather than a drive to see it. It suits couples and families after a proper resort stay in the Canadian Rockies, with enough on site to fill a full day without leaving the grounds. It also works well as the Lake Louise leg of a wider Rockies itinerary.
