"Experience luxury and natural beauty intertwined at the Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel in Banff, Alberta. Nestled amidst the stunning Rocky Mountains, this iconic chateau-style resort offers a perfect blend of elegance and adventure.
Although it is quite costly to stay at the hotel, you can still visit the grounds and explore the beauty it has to offer, without breaking the bank! As if this hotel wasnāt cool enough, did you know itās allegedly haunted!? As the most well known story goes, in 1928, a man took his own life after killing his wife and daughter during their stay at the hotel.
There are a few stories of hauntings at the hotel one of them being the murders of an entire family in their hotel room on the eighth floor. The story goes, a man took his own life after murdering his wife and daughter. Since the murders, guests have reported seeing bloody handprints on the bathroom mirror. The room in question is no longer there and if you visit the eighth floor youāll notice itās completely covered where the room should be!"

"To visit, not to stay... yet. You should for sure set aside time to visit the Fairmont Banff Springs. They have the MOST beautiful hotel lobby and grounds, an awesome happy hour, nice options for meals, on site activities including bowling and a beautiful spa. The rooms do not yet meet the expectations of the price-point but they do have plans to renovate in the near future. "
