The Fairmont Banff Springs or simply the Banff
Springs Hotel (also known as Castle in the
Rockies) is a former railway hotel constructed
in Scottish Baronial style located in Banff
National Park, Alberta, Canada. The original
hotel, designed by American 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. Starting in 1911, a wholly new hotel was
built in stages to replace the 1888 structure.
The new hotel was designed by another American
architect, Walter S. Painter. Compared with
Price's Shingle style-influenced wooden
structure, Painter's new hotel was built of
concrete and faced with stone.
