So it is true, the hotel and the grounds are BEAUTIFUL. My husband, daughter and I enjoyed walking outside, we took advantage of the impressive pool and we ate delicious food all week-end. Overall it was a very nice hotel, but I am a bit disappointed in their service. When I stay at a Fairmont, I expect certain standards. When... More

My husband and I have stayed at Montebello every winter for the past five years. We enjoy it immensely each visit. Yes, it can be pricey, but keep in mind that this is a 5 star hotel. We wait for a special rate before we book. It's a deal! If you're not on a schedule, sign up for the Fairmont... More

This Fairmont property is only an hour's drive from downtown Ottawa, so we have "escaped" to the Chateau Montebello in a rural part of the province of Quebec at least half a dozen times in the past 4 or 5 years. Many people from Ottawa head here on Sunday's for a pleasant drive and to have the high-end brunch buffet... More

My husband and I were there during the winter and it was absolutely beautiful. Many outdoor activities, or just the right place to stay in and relax. The food was stupendous (have to try the smoked meat on pretzel in casual restaurant). The Chantiolles restaurant is great but pricey. I think I enjoyed my smoked meat sandwich more than my... More

We spent two nights at the world's biggest log cabin on the occasion of our daughter's wedding. Loved the rustic building and rooms. The bathroom was fine, but is kind of one-person-at-a-time. The hotel is pricey, but the price is commensurate with the facilities and excellent service; in fact, it's probably a bargain. Those guests that arrived on Friday tried... More

A true beautiful winter wonderland! My husband and I came for the weekend and enjoyed many of the great activities offered at the Château. Here are a few tips we would like to share: 1. The rooms near the lobby are noisy. We stayed in the Lacombe wing and enjoyed a quiet night. 2. The food is excellent! Make sure... More

Visitors to Canada always seem to make their way to the Rocky Mountains to take in the stunning scenery. So they should. They should also not overlook a few gems in Eastern Canada such as the sheer comfort offered by the Chateau Montebello. This great wooden Valhalla (largest log cabin in the world) situated on the Ottawa River between Ottawa... More

Our stay at the Chateau Montebello was an excellent one. We stayed in a Jacquzzi suite and it was worth the extra expense! There were lots of activities available during the day, from cross country skiing to skating and snowshoeing. The spa was a great way to spend a cold afternoon! The facial was amazing! The food at the main,... More

As my title says the main room is amazing, great history in building. rooms were very average, maybe even below average. 2 lights in my room didn't work, the bathroom door would not stayed closed in our room as well as the tv remote didn't work. the pool was great, skating, tennis, horse riding all fantastic. The man running curling... More
