Fodor's Review:

The massive hotel, opened in 1890, overlooks blue-green Lake Louise and the Victoria Glacier. The hotel is also a departure point for several short, moderately strenuous, well-traveled hiking routes. The most popular hike (about 2 mi, or 3 km) is to Lake Agnes. The tiny lake hangs on a mountain-surrounded shelf that opens to the east with a bird's-eye view of the Beehives and Mount Whitehorn.

A must see for visiting this area. The lake has a delicious color, its hard to describe with the glacier backdrop. Spectacular! The Chateau is large and sophisticated.
