I have mixed feeling about the trip to the Glacier. Don't know if that is something that I would have booked myself. It's a "cool" idea to be up on a Glacier, but it can also be a bit anticlimactic. You get driven out there in these hard "big as earth mover" buses, then parked, left to wander for 20 mins, then back on the noisy transports. Then there is the environmental impact of being up there, and the fact that climate change is already doing a job on the glaciers. Without waxing to much philosophy, one could say that about the entire travel industry. Anyways, it was a beautiful day, lots of sunshine, fresh air (once they turned off the diesels engines), the glacier and surrounding area is a treasure, and I was among people I love. Not a bad combination. Enjoy!

We were lucky to do this as parts of the park were still closed to do the fires during the summer months. The vehicles were specially made for this activity by Mercedes. The drivers and guides are knowledgeable and engaging. We stepped out onto a glacier for just about a minute as it was 0 degrees on the ice with the wind etc. and the glacier was slippery so I didn't want to go far. BUT I can say I walked on a glacier. The guides told us to walk like a Penguin so we did and that was fun. Highly recommend.

The room was large and we were upgraded to a lakefront suite that was absolutely adorable and Instagram worthy AF. Slept sooo good! The property is huge, but you don't feel the congestion as you do at the Lake Louise and Banff properties.

We stayed at two Fairmont's during our trip to Banff and Jasper national Park in October 2025 and this was definitely the best of the two!

The room was very nice and we really enjoyed the experience. As long as their is a nice comfortable bed, a nice size clean bathroom and enough room to sit, I am happy. This place fit the bill. We were here as part of out Rocky Mountaineer trip and they had a staffer with a separate check in for us. You leave the train, they take you over by coach and the baggage is already in the room. The staff was fabulous and everyone was very attentive to any of our needs and always very accommodating. I had only one issue here... lots of people and not a lot of places to eat. A bar and restaurant. My wife and I are used to multiple choices and the ability to walk downtown if we want. Here that was really not an option. We came back late from a tour and it was difficult to be seated. The VERY NICE host took our name and really watched the flow of people and managed to get us in a bit earlier than the reservation we made. Food and atmosphere is good and our server did a wonderful job. (some food pictures attached as well as a separate review.) If I was ever back in the area I would certainly come back but... be better prepared. KUDOs to the team at Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge

The location is a selling point. The bungalows are on a fast moving River frequently visited by elk, deer and the occasional bear. This is not a big chain hotel environment with modern amenities, there is no air conditioning and the rooms are rustic and out dated. Wifi was spotty along with phone & cable service. This winter the bungalows are slated for upgrades, air conditioning will be added. We wandered to the gazebo along the river, it was a cool breezy place to sit & admire the snow capped mountains & rambling river. We enjoyed Chris the naturalist's 8:00 program about the animals in Jasper. They have an friendly, professional & fascinating international staff from France, Chile, Mexico & Australia.. The Jasper House Bungalows were established in 1956, on picturesque property overlooking the Athabasca River. The original 28 units were built by Austrian John Woldrich & Italian immigrants, one of whom was Forabosco. John & Josie Forabosco bought Jasper House in 1977 expanding to 56 bungalows. The family ran Jasper House Bungalows for 35 years until 2011 when John sold it to the Decore brothers who renovated the properties. The seasonal property is opened from May Thanksgiving. The Elk Village Restaurant on site offers breakfast & dinner in their lodge dining room. We were treated to a steak dinner with mashed potatoes, corn & a berry tart. A buffet breakfast was provided daily from 7 until 9: 00. Patio seating is available as well as a few grocery, backpacking and off sale items. A happy hour from 4:00 until 6:00pm offers discounted cocktails, appetizers and assorted tacos.
