The position of the Chateau in the natural area is absolutely unbelievable! As in a fairytale the Chateau is surrounded by a wonderful scenario! From the window in the room the magnificence of the nature can be seen! With a cup of brewed coffee prepared by oneself in the room life become exciting each moment! The staff is extremely courteous and efficient! We meet at the desk a girl named Angela! really truly outstanding her kindness! out of the ordinary!!! also the other workers are really impeccable! From Ashley in the Concierge to the Drivers of the shuttle bus to Lake Louise ski resort ! The days spent there are really to remember!

The overall hotel and room were kept in great shape. Thanks to a shortage of rooms we were upgraded to a junior suite and it was fantastic. Almost all of the rooms seemed to have nice views and modern furnishings though. Perhaps the strongest element of our stay was the staff-- from the bellman to the front desk. All were incredibly friendly and helpful.

There was really only two areas where things fell short-- the cost and quality of the food and drink. We happen to live in a city where we pride ourselves on having access to world-class food without the attachment of high cost. At this hotel, the cost of food and drink was exorbitant. $50 for a breakfast for two that consisted of waffles and a yogurt parfait. It didn't matter what you ordered for a meal-- it was woefully overpriced. One understands availability of a high-priced restaurant option in a resort hotel, but you couldn't even get a reasonably-priced croissant. On top of the pricing, the taste of the food was mediocre at best. We found by going into town and talking to the locals, we were able to find really good, simple food (including regional specialties) at reasonable prices in the town of Lake Louise.

There was only one other item to nitpick: pool access. It was a very long walk from our room, and to get to/from there, we had to walk through all of the main hallways (including the convention room areas), restaurants, and the front lobby, in a robe. (A changing room is available near the pool.) The temperature of the regular pool was also a little on the cool side, but not that bad.

Although the basics were well-covered (a comfortable place to sleep and great staff), we spent an amount near equal to our room on food & drink-- and were disappointed in what was served to us. Overall, I think we would recommend this place, but those who stay should definitely look elsewhere when it's time to eat and drink!

One of those unique places in the whole world. Anybody who appreciates luxury and unique locations must visit and stay at the Chateau lake Louise at least once in their life. I cannot imagine a more romantic place.
