The lodge runs as a sprawling cabin village on Lac Beauvert, where wild elk roam freely between the chalets.
“the setting—there’s an unmistakable sense of place and a tranquilness with just the right touch of luxury to enhance the natural beauty of the surroundings.”
What it’s good at
Remarkable
Welcoming travellers since 1922, from Hollywood film crews to generational family reunions.
What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Also in Condé Nast Traveler and AFAR.
The Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge is a somewhat ramshackle collection of cottages, cabins, and chalets, all gathered around a central lodge building.
“The 442 rooming options—all of which were renovated between 2015 and 2017—include cozy spots in the main building, fireplace-equipped Junior Suites, and bring-the-whole-family Signature Cabins, all with views across the lake or the forest and mountains.”
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
The town of Jasper is a ten-minute drive away. Forest trails loop straight from the grounds around Lac Beauvert.

The rooms
Junior Suites use sliding panel doors to partition off living areas. Standalone cabins have wood-burning fireplaces and private lakeside patios.
The water
Bring a swimsuit.
Pool, sauna and spa
A 20-metre heated pool overlooks Lac Beauvert year-round, steps from a lakeside barrel sauna and the spa pavilion.
At the table
The Barbicon serves aged cuts beside an original 1922 stone hearth, and Lume pours cocktails facing Lac Beauvert.
How it began
A 1952 fire destroyed the original timber central lodge, prompting a rebuild in steel and Tyndall stone the following year.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.

It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.

The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.

A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
