A LITTLE BIT ABOUT US Combining the traditional remnants of a bygone era with all the modern conveniences you would expect from a world-class property, Edmonton's only four-diamond heritage hotel sits majestically on the banks overlooking the North Saskatchewan River Valley. Fully restored to its original grandeur, this Chateau on the River features 199 rooms and suites. Our enviable location, heritage designation and elegant surroundings have allowed The Fairmont Hotel Macdonald to be and continue to be Edmonton's place for every occasion. Named after Canada's first Prime Minister Sir John A. Macdonald, the hotel opened its doors on July 5, 1915. The Hotel Macdonald was designed by Ross and Macdonald, the same architectural firm that designed many of Canada's landmark hotels. The hotel was designed in the Château Style adapted from 16th century French castles that characterized Canada's large railway hotels, the building is laced with Indiana limestone and roofed with copper. Generally known “The MAC”, the hotel was built by Grand Trunk Pacific Railway has successively been owned by Canadian National Railway, Canadian Pacific Hotels and Fairmont Hotels and Resorts. The City of Edmonton designated the building as a Municipal Heritage Resource, with five areas included in the designation: the building exterior, the Confederation Lounge, the Lobby, the Wedgwood Room, and the Empire Ballroom. Overlooking the beautiful landscaped gardens, guests of The Fairmont Hotel Macdonald are treated to a breathtaking view of Edmonton’s River Valley, North America’s longest, most continuous urban park system with over 160 kilometers of multi use trails connecting 22 City Parks. The Fairmont Hotel Macdonald is ideally located in hear of Edmonton's City Centre and Arts District, one block from the Shaw Conference Centre and only steps away from the Citadel Theatre, The Art Gallery of Alberta and the Francis Winspear Centre for Music. .
