There were few things that could have been much better: 1) Parking was not connected to the hotel which was very inconvenient for us with little babies. 2) We were charged a parking fee on our bill that didn’t belong to us so then rather then getting it fixed, front desk made us come down to the lobby to get the reimbursement’s 3) Room was fairly small as compared to what we paid for each night which was $800 so you would expect a bit better space. 4) No activities for the kids as it was my daughters birthday however the hotel didn’t have anything going for the days we stayed .

Only comment is that a waiter in 1888. His name is Corey is disreputable. He intentionally misheard entree and wine selections opting for the most expensive option available. I corrected him on the entre selection but he got me on the wine selection. I tried to order the house Cabernet but he took the wine list and asked which one and I ended up paying $32 each for my wife and I to have about 4 oz each of wine. He is deft but arrogant and if I was 25 years younger I would have confronted him. He should be fired.

Grand Castle in National Park

It’s a magical place, a proper castle in the National Park. Club lounge for Fairmont Gold has superb food both breakfast and evening canapés and the view is spectacular from the gold rooms. No mistaking it the rooms are small, like European small but there are very few suite options so you just accept it and being there is the joy not the actual room.
