Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge, Rocky Mountains

rooms

The resort offers a large variety of rooms and suites from standard to deluxe rooms and junior to lake front suites which feature cable TV with in-room pay movies, bathrobes, fireplace, sofa bed, coffeemaker and kettle, hair dryer, iron and board, mini fridge and fan. Guests are offered the choice of king size or double beds.

Family Plan rooms (two queen size beds or one king size and one rollaway bed) are available or connecting rooms and suites can be requested for those requiring extra space, many featuring an additional sofa bed.

If you are looking to treat yourself, consider booking one of the nine Signature Jasper Cabins, which range from two to eight bedrooms in size. These are scattered around the lodge’s grounds, and have breath-taking views of the National Park. The cabins are all individually styled and are perfect for guests seeking a little more privacy or for larger groups.

facilities & activities

The focus of the Resort must be the stunning lake and the Boathouse offers paddleboats, canoes and guided Voyaguer tours to help you make the most of this (costs apply). Alternatively a popular activity is horse riding and with the Jasper Park Stables close by, this is easy to arrange. The Stanley Thompson Golf Course is also highly acclaimed and whilst you are guaranteed stunning mountain views as you complete the course, you also have a good chance of spotting wildlife! If you have the energy at the end of the day you can also fit in a game of tennis with racquet hire available, or to unwind head to the Fairmont Reflections Spa for a treatment or sauna! The Health Club boasts a well-equipped gym and heated outdoor pool.

If you are planning on leaving the Resort, the hotel has a knowledgeable Concierge & Guest Services team who will help plan your daily activities.

In the winter months tobogganing, tubing, fat tyre biking, curling and skating are activities on offer and on a more practical level, laundry services are also available. Parking is complimentary, but valet parking is also available for a charge.

dining

At the Emerald Lounge & Patio, you can enjoy gourmet burgers and other light fare accompanied by fabulous views over Lake Beauvert and the mountains beyond. The Orso Trattoria shares that wonderful outlook but serves Northern Italian fare for breakfast, afternoon tea and dinner. Alternatively enjoy creative regional cuisine for dinner in rustic style at The Moose's Nook Chophouse or Oka Sushi.

On a more informal level, Thompson's Terrace at the golf course offers take-away options, sandwiches, cold drinks and snacks. It also hosts seasonal bbq's in the summer months. Fitzhugh's to Go specialises in gourmet foods and gifts and offers a selection of freshly-made sandwiches and salads if you plan to eat lunch on the move or in the wilds!

family

Although the Great Outdoors is the best playroom here, the Activity Centre offers a fantastic range of options to keep younger guests fully entertained. Complimentary volleyball, soccer, shuffleboard, horseshoes, Giant Jenga and stargazing are a few of the options.

Children aged from four to 12 can also join in at the Kids Club (charges apply) and the ever popular S’mores making sessions: think marshmallow toasting, chocolate and biscuits -  a sure fire hit!.  Teenagers can also hang out in the Teen Zone Games Room

Food-wise children are well catered for here.  Under fives eat free from the children's menu, whilst those aged six to11 eat for half price from the main menus. 

Family Plan rooms (two queen size beds or one king size and one rollaway bed) are available or connecting rooms and suites can be requested for those requiring extra space, many featuring an additional sofa bed.  Cots can be arranged and babysitters booked for a charge. 

The Signature Jasper Cabins, which range from two bedrooms to eight bedrooms in size, are based in the grounds and are also ideal for larger groups of friends and family.
