Today (September 12, 2016):\u00a0best hotels & lodges in the Canadian Rockies.<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Renowned for their jaw-dropping scenery, the Canadian Rocky Mountains are comprised of Banff, Jasper, Kootenay and Yoho National Parks and Mount Robson, Mount Assiniboine, Spray Valley and Hamber Provincial Parks. In all of these regions, travelers are amazed\u00a0by\u00a0deep blue glacial lakes, endless\u00a0pine forests, rugged\u00a0mountains, and abundant wildlife, with\u00a0the mighty grizzly bear\u00a0roaming free in this vast wilderness. To assist you in finding your ideal accommodation, I have compiled a top 10 list of my favorite hotels & lodges in the Canadian Rockies.<\/p>\n

10. EMERALD LAKE LODGE, YOHO NP<\/a><\/strong><\/h5>\n

When you visit Emerald Lake Lodge, you follow in the footsteps of legendary guide Tom Wilson, who discovered this magical location \u2013\u00a0famed for its jade-coloured waters\u00a0\u2013 more than 100 years ago during the construction of the Canadian Pacific Railway. Today, the\u00a0hotel\u00a0remains one of North America\u2019s most outstanding and year-round accessible lodges in a wilderness setting. \u00a0With its century-old fireplaces and an oak bar salvaged from an 1890\u2019s Yukon saloon, there is no shortage of history within these walls. Built of hand-hewn timber and featuring massive stone fireplaces, the lodge includes an elegant dining room, quiet reading and sitting rooms, conference facilities and a games room.<\/p>\n
