“Amazing!”

May 01, 2026WalkwiththeDog

Wow! What an absolutely beautiful hotel in an amazing setting! We were expecting something special from the chateau and we certainly got special! I’m sure every staff member must have been on numerous customer service courses as everyone we asked would always go an extra mile to help eg as we were looking for somewhere to have a coffee while waiting for our room a super friendly lady of Indian origin asked if we were looking for something. She then went out of her way to take us up to the residents lounge , with free drinks and games and jigsaws, although maybe this should have been mentioned during the check in process….. We also received a gorgeous surprise with a lake view room upgrade to mark our 40th wedding anniversary and also a bottle of Prosecco in the room along with a delicious cream cake! The room was absolutely beautiful with a stunning view over the lake and the bed and pillows were sumptuous! Loads of great hikes into the hills from the doorstep and many guided walks if we’d had more time. The only downside to this fantastic hotel is the swimming pool. For a hotel with approximately 400-500 rooms I’m guessing, the pool is very small and one of the days we visited, was completely crowded children and floating toys. This did not detract in any way from our super special experience.

“Check your Accor points if you have stayed here in the last SIX months”

Apr 28, 2026Eyeou

If you are a member of the ACCOR program, and have stayed here in the last 6 months, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND verifying the accuracy of your points posted!!! I hate to have to resort to airing my dirty laundry, but I have received no satisfaction with Accor or CLL hotel management regarding a recent stay and inaccuracy in my points. I stay at this hotel OFTEN. 10 nights this ski season, and 50 lifetime nights. I have stayed at many Fairmont properties, but this one can NOT get my loyalty points right. 4 out of the last 6 stays have been inaccurate, of course posting LESS points than earned. One of these stays in particular, I emailed Accor who verified with the hotel that the points are correct, despite them not being able to give me a breakdown of points earned (dining, hotel, spa, etc). I emailed the hotel front desk prior to my next stay, asking them to forward my concern to the general manager, but I heard nothing. I then stayed at the hotel after this error and Maain (front office manager) apologized profusely and promised to look into the error. More than a week later and I have received no communication from CLL, and my points remain uncorrected. Exhibit A Spend: room 270, room 270, dinner 250, dinner 170, breakfast 35, massage 229, massage 229, Basin 100, Basin 100. Total $1653. None of this is taxes, resort fees, tips/gratuities. Exhibit B Accor app: 1870 status points, 3291 reward points Exhibit C Accor online calculator, platinum status: 2580 status points, 4540 reward points

“Excellent hotel & staff”

Apr 25, 2026Julie S

Excellent hotel, clean and well maintained, lovely staff, very helpful and friendly. Great views of Lake Louise. Very good amenities, shops and a good variety of restaurants. We ate in Alpine Social, the food was tasty and well cooked, reasonable prices and really lovely staff! Shout out to Kieran and the two English girls (sorry didn't catch your names) who gave good service and were really friendly.
