Enjoy the hotel while you can (if you still can). Fairmont sold it's chain to ACCOR (Thassalia) so even the coffee shops will be outside your pay grid. You may also be charged a $20 parking fee and a $45 facilities fee (includes sitting on the patio.) Includes Banff Springs hotel and the Jasper Park Lodge.

No. Not since tourists became a serious problem. It's not that I dislike tourists. It's the constant volume that saddens me. And all the rules needed to regulate them. I wish I could have seen these magic places in the 30's to 40's just as I wish you could have seen them in the 60's and 70's. Make the most of it because now is the best it will ever be for you
