The Fairmont Palliser originally opened in 1914 as The Palliser, Calgary’s grand Canadian Railway Hotel, adorned in oak paneling, marble columns and floors, handmade rugs, and original art. The eight-story building, constructed in the Edwardian Commercial style, displays straight geometric lines that resemble prairie grain elevators, with a distinctive E-shape that allows all rooms to enjoy natural light. The Renaissance-Revival lobby features gray Tennessee-marble floors, columns finished in Botticino and Sylvian marble, a ticket office, a telephone and telegraph bureau, and an elevator hall. The Rimrock, a Tudor-style restaurant with views of the lobby, displays a 38-foot mural by Banff artist, Charles Beil, and fireplace that warmed former Canadian Prime Minister R. B. Bennett (1930–35), a frequent visitor. Located on the Boulevard Level, The Canadian Pacific Railway Pavilion—a glass rotunda inspired by late-19th century railway-station design—compliments the hotel’s architecture, and showcases Canadian Pacific’s vintage rail cars. Amenities include The Rimrock restaurant with classic regional cuisine; Sunday brunch in the grand lobby; and a deli. The Boulevard Club offers an indoor saltwater swimming pool, a large spa tub, a steam room, and fitness equipment as well as a salon with hair care, facial and body treatments.
