As one of Eastern Canada’s leading destinations, Fairmont Le Château Montebello is an exceptional resort famed for its rugged luxury. Here, in a stunning red cedar log château, you’ll experience rustic elegance and a warm welcome. In February 1930, the site where Fairmont Le Château Montebello now stands was just a clearing in the woods. Four months later, the massive cedar château was erected – a construction feat that captured the popular imagination of the time, inspired newspaper features across North America and attracted crowds of on-lookers.

Fairmont Le Château Montebello was inspired by the châteaux of the Swiss Alps. Craftsmen used 10,000 giant cedar logs to build the resort’s three main buildings, all cut and set by hand. The central log château, which houses all the guest rooms in the resort, has a three-story central atrium, at the heart of which stands a massive six-sided fireplace with a central chimney. For 40 years the log structure was a private retreat, whose elite membership included politicians such as former Canadian Prime Minister Lester B. Pearson and foreign dignitaries such as Prince Rainier and Princess Grace of Monaco. The resort has a number of historic meetings under its belt, including the 1981 International Economic Summit, attended by political figures such as Ronald Reagan, François Mitterand, Pierre Trudeau and Margaret Thatcher.
