Take a Walk Through Time with Fairmont Hotels & Resorts
FAIRMONT HOTELS & RESORTS TAKE A WALK THROUGH TIME WITH FAIRMONT HOTELS & RESORTS For more than a century, our hotels have been at the heart of it all, serving as places of occasion for their communities. The exhilarating events, memorable meetings, and defining moments that have taken place within our hallowed halls are fascinating and countless. A look at some of the more notable ones: 1885 Bermuda's The Fairmont Hamilton Princess opens its doors, making it the oldest hotel in the Fairmont collection. 1888 Canada's first grand railway hotel, The Fairmont Banff Springs opens, bringing to life the vision of General Manager and soon-to-be President of Canadian Pacific Railway, Sir Cornelius Van Horne. It’s not all joy though, as Van Horne is furious to discover initial hotel plans give the kitchen the magnificent views of the Bow Valley. A rotunda is soon built to give the view back to the guests. 1889 Britain's first luxury hotel, The Savoy, opens and pioneers a number of “firsts” for hotels, including “ascending rooms” (electric lifts), 24-hour room service through a “speaking tube” connected to the restaurant, and its own laundry service and postal address. 1890's Silver baron James Graham Fair purchases the land where Fairmont's namesake San Francisco hotel now resides, hoping to build a family estate. His daughters begin planning on “The Fairmont” as a posthumous monument. “Fairmont” combines the name of the hotel’s founding family with its exclusive location atop Nob Hill. 1890 Society hostess Lady de Grey gathers a group of female contemporaries to dine at London’s The Savoy, a strike for equality, making it socially acceptable for women to gather for meals in public without their husbands, and inspiring generations of ladies-who-lunch.

(CP Corporate Archives, A-4989) TX ~h the construction of the Chateau Frontenac Hotel in 1892-93 on the heights of r r Quebec City (figure 1), American architect Bruce Price (1845-1903) introduced the chateau style to Canada. Built for the Canadian Pacific Railway, the monumental hotel estab lished a precedent for a series of distinctive railway hotels across the country that served to as sociate the style with nationalist sentiment well into the 20th century.1 The prolonged life of the chateau style was not sustained by the CPR, however; the company completed its last chateauesque hotel in 1908, just as the mode was being embraced by the CPR's chief com petitor, the Grand Trunk Railway. How the chateau style came to be adopted by the GTR, and how it was utilized in three major hotels- the Chateau Laurier Hotel in Ottawa, the Fort Garry Hotel in Winnipeg, and the Macdonald Hotel in Edmonton -was closely related to the background and rise to prominence of the architects, Montreal natives George Allan Ross (1879-1946) and David Huron MacFarlane (1875-1950). According to Lovell's Montreal City Directory, 1900-01, George Ross2 worked as a draughtsman in the Montreal offices of the GTR, which was probably his first training in ar chitecture, and possibly a consideration when his firm later obtained the contracts for the GTR hotels.

Yet, as many have contended, the Chateau Frontenac is not rea lly a chateau, not even a public monument, but simply a hotel.4 Today, the image of the "Chateau"-as it is commonly re ferred to-has become the trademark of Quebec City, used as architectural shorthand for the French-Canadian capital.
