The Fairmont Banff

Springs Hotel

“The Fairmont Banff Springs in Canada is one of the world’s most majestic and grand hotel. The hotel is style after a Scottish Baronial

Castle and is located in the heart of Banff National Park. The Fairmont Banff offers absolutely gorgeous views of vistas, and is home to world renowned skiing, champion golf courses, and exception cuisine. The

eight floor is said to be the most haunted! Rumor has it that an entire family was murdered in room 873, including a little girl.

People say her fingerprints couldn’t be wiped away from the mirror. The room was eventually sealed off with bricks and the wall was painted over to hide that it was ever there. Although nobody can go inside the

room (and the hotel denies its existence), guests still report noises coming from where the room should be. Creepy !

The Banff Springs Hotel is a former railway hotel constructed in Scottish Baronial style, located in Banff National Park, Alberta, Canada. The

hotel, designed by architect Bruce Price, was built between spring of 1887 and 1888 by the Canadian Pacific Railway, at the instigation of its President, William Cornelius Van Horne. The hotel was publicly opened

on June 1, 1888 and rebuilt in the 1920s after a fire.

The original wooden hotel burnt down in 1926, and was rebuilt larger and in its current form in 1928. In 1968, the hotel was winterized and

has been open year-round since. Some have compared its past operating schedule to the fictional Overlook Hotel from

Stephen King's book “
