An emblem of Quebec’s old, fortified city, Fairmont Le Château Frontenac Resort pays homage to heritage while impressing guests with its majestic castle architecture. Having won the 2022 Global Hotel of the Year Award given by World Luxury, this fortress proves unmissable, delivering the finest of seasonally inspired menus, a relaxing spa, aquatic center and fascinating guided tours of the city. The hotel further nurtures romance, not only because of its Rapunzel-esque design and vast restaurant offering, but also through its proximity to nature and the charm of cobbled streets that surround it. 

The Van Horne Suite harnesses the best elements from the hotel to surround you in utter opulence. Including a master bedroom, living room, large dining room, powder room and magnificent marble bathroom, the suite boasts internal space that extends outwardly, with window views lending sights of the large Saint Lawrence River. Two decorative fireplaces afford comfort and a dedicated butler is on hand to ensure you remain at ease throughout your stay.

Painted in pale blues and crisp whites, the room attracts light through equally bright design. Dashes of dark accents, mahogany furnishings and black borders infuse contemporary elegance into the space that mingles with the historic charm that the hotel homages. The suite also pays tribute to Sir Cornelius Van Horne, president of the Canadian Pacific Railway, who instigated the creation of Château Frontenac in 1893. Through historic train photographs and vintage posters, guests are invited to awe the coast-to-coast union of Canada that his efforts facilitated.

As well as celebrating travel and history, Fairmont Le Château Frontenac is also forward-thinking, helping to ensure a thriving future for the planet through its sustainability efforts. In addition to achieving carbon neutrality, the hotel continues to support ecology by having a rooftop chef’s garden with live beehives, using local, organic and fair-trade food produce, and setting up the Chateau Boréal program to reforest our planet.
