Fort Garry Hotel
Location
Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada
The Fort Garry Hotel, one of the lavish rail line properties built to span Canada by the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway in 1913, has long been a symbol of the prairie city's importance as a transportation and commerce hub. Located downtown one block from Union Station, this historic landmark built in French chateau style is Winnipeg's finest hotel, exuding the refined opulence created to lure well-heeled travelers during the development of the Canadian West.
No accoutrement is spared to ensure a comfortable stay. Guest rooms have 10-foot ceilings; beds with feather mattress, down duvets and pillows, and fine Italian linens; beautifully appointed bathrooms with Turkish cotton towels, bathrobes and deluxe beauty products; flat screen TV with in-room movies, free local phone calls, free wireless high-speed Internet, and laptops available at the front desk for complimentary Internet access. Breakfast is served in the elegant Oval Room Brasserie, and guests can enjoy a drink in the Palm Lounge with its antique bar. The hotel also has a fully equipped fitness center with indoor pool, whirlpool, jogging track and steam room. And, for a sumptuous indulgence—especially after you've returned from the frozen wilds of Churchill—visit the Ten Spa, an authentic Turkish-style hamam and spa located on the top floor of the hotel.
