I found the vegetarian meal choice in the formal MSI ing room and the resort restaurants very limited to non existent despite the dining room being informed a month prior to our stay. For a Fairmont I find this very frustrating. Paying $64.00 for a plate of 1/4 charred broccoli and black beans when you can get a steak for that price is not acceptable. Please update your menu to reflect meal choices for 2024!

The view of Lake Louise is stunning. But that is the main attraction. The rooms are dated. The food is expensive and the quality not commensurate. The Lakeview is the place to sit for a view of the lake, especially at lunch, however, the selection is unusual and lacks any of the basic items one would be looking for at lunch. There is no option for anything ‘normal’ (a nice salad with salmon or chicken, a burger, etc). You cannot get anything normal (or normally priced) at lunch at the restaurant that has a view (unless you are under 12!). They DO have a new option of a rotisserie chicken with a Caesar salad served table side. Why is a table-side Caesar even desirable? The chicken gets cold while waiting for the salad to be prepared. It’s not like it’s anything special to see. And it took over an hour before they came to prepare it. We were hoping to get a normal lunch in a normal amount of time and get back to our activities! Please just make a Caesar with grilled chicken available from the kitchen at lunch! Another note (and I heard this from another guest who was checking out next to me): the eggs at the breakfast buffet are liquid eggs so the consistency is off and the taste is totally bland. We asked for eggs to be done in the kitchen and they sent out the same fake eggs until we asked specifically that they be made with actual eggs , not the kind that you pour from a carton. The food needs an overhaul as do the rooms/grounds.

Skip the stay but make sure to visit
Hotel is under construction. Initial room assigned was 2nd floor overlooking the construction with a sliver of lake (we paid $1300 for a lake view). We had to fight to have our room changed and ended up with a very nice view, that said, there is constant noise from the people outside well into the night. Worst $1300mroom I have ever stayed at.
