Uluhlu lwasendle lweentaba ezigqunywe ngumkhenkce ecaleni kweKhanada kunye neapos; s Continental Divide ziye zalinga abahambi bemozulu elungileyo kwithuba elingaphezulu kwenkulungwane. Kodwa ke kule minyaka ingamashumi amathathu idlulileyo iindawo ekuchithelwa kuzo iiholide ezinkulu zahlala zivuliwe unyaka wonke, kwaye ngokuthe ngcembe iimfihlo zasebusika zeRockies zaseCanada zatyhilwa. Iindawo ezingashukumiyo zokuskiya ezantsi zidibanisa umgubo onzulu kunye neendawo ezikufutshane nentlango. Ungashenxisa ukhenketho kwii-acres zomhlaba ongafunyanwanga, ukukhwela i-sleigh ukuya kumthi omnyama oluhlaza, kwaye (umsindo wamva nje) hamba ujonge izinja kwiintlambo zealpine. Ezi zikhethiweyo ezikhethiweyo zokufihla intaba ukusuka kwiihotele zembali zembali ukuya kwiindawo ezikhethekileyo zelizwe kunye neelustic backcountry lodges, kodwa bonke babelana ngeempawu ezintathu: ulungiso lwamva nje, uninzi lwentshona yaseKhanada yokubuka iindwendwe, akukho glitz okanye ukuzenzisa.

Ihotele iBanff Springs
Ipaki yeSizwe iBanff, eAlberta
Uphawu oluhlala luhleli kwiiRockies zaseCanada, le nqaba yaseFrance ichâteau-cum-Scottish iphakama ngaphezu kwemithi yespruce kwiqela leentsomi kunye neenqaba. Kokokuqala ndindwendwela ihotele iBanff Springs, andikhumbuli kakhulu-bendise-utero. Kodwa kuhambo lonke lokubuya, bekusoloko kuyimincili ukuqhubela phezulu kwindawo engenakwenzeka yobunewunewu emaphethelweni endalo.

Iminyaka, nangona kunjalo, iCanadian Pacific Railway & Apos; s 'Castle of the Rockies' kwakumnandi kakhulu ukujonga kunokuhlala ngaphakathi. Amagumbi amnyama afakwe ifenitshala enezinto ezibonisa imfazwe abonisa uluvo lomphathi jikelele we-CP uWilliam Cornelius Van Horne , owayecinga ukulala 'njengenkunkuma yexesha.' ('Ngaphandle koko,' uyakongeza, 'awuyazi into eqhubekayo.') Umgaqo kaloliwe ekuqaleni wawusakha iindawo zemidlalo kwindawo njengendawo yokondla abakhweli, kwaye ezi zakhula zaziinqaba ezinkulu zamatye ezaziziindawo, hayi indlela nje zezitishi.

Kule minyaka isixhenxe idlulileyo i-CP ichithe ngaphezulu kwe-80 yezigidi zeedola (imali iyonke inikwe iidola zase-US) ipholisha i-Banff Springs, uninzi lwayo lususela kwii-1920 kunye neeapos. Onke amagumbi kunye nama-suites angama-770 ahlaziywa, kwaye iindawo zikawonke-wonke ezimangalisayo zabuyiselwa. Akukho nto yenziwe malunga nabasebenzi. Abonwabileyo kwaye betyhafile, kubonakala ngathi basingenise ngaphakathi isiqubulo sesiLatin kwiziciko zabo zeblazer, ubukhoboka obubekekileyo (Inkonzo eNobuntu).

Ihotele izama ukugcina ukubhatala abathengi kwindawo kunye neevenkile ezininzi, iivenkile zokutyela ezili-17, kunye nezinto ezininzi ezenziwayo. Eyona ndawo yokutyela inkulu, iRob Roy Dining Room, ijongeka ngathi yiholo eliphakathi kwaye isebenza ukutya okungalinganiyo. I-salmon fillet ehlanjululwe kwi-soy sauce kunye ne-whisky kwaye ibhaka ngokugqibeleleyo kwiplanga lomsedare inokuza neitya ezibandayo zerayisi kunye nemifuno. Uya kuba nethamsanqa elingcono kunye nentlanzi eluhlaza eSamurai, egama layo lenza imifanekiso kaBelushi Sushi.

Kutyelelo lwam lwasebusika oludlulileyo, igumbi lam eliqhelekileyo lalingenakuba likhulu, kodwa lalilikhulu ngokwaneleyo ukuba libe nebhedi elingana nobukumkani, isofa enetafile zokuphela, itafile yekofu, idesika, kunye ne-oki armoire. Awucingi ukuba ikhowudi yokwakha ye-1920 yayiza kufuna iindonga ezomeleleyo, kodwa ndandinokubava ngokucacileyo abamelwane bam & iiapos; iihenganger jangling egumbini.

Ubuqaqawuli bokwenyani beBanff Springs buhlala buziindawo zikawonke-wonke, ngakumbi iNtaba iStephen Hall, igumbi lokwamkela iindwendwe elinemithi eqingqiweyo ye-oki eqingqiweyo, iibhalkoni ze-faux, i-cloister walk, umgangatho welitye, kunye neefestile ezinkulu zeglasi ekhokelweyo ejonge phezulu kwi-Spray Intlambo yomlambo.

USolace, ihotele kunye neeapos ezintsha zeedola ezili-12 zeedola, yabethwa kwangoko kunye neendwendwe nabahlali, abaqhuba ukusuka eCalgary kuhambo losuku nakwiipakeji zempelaveki. Ngubani owayesazi ukuba abantu baseAlbertan abanobuhlobo babenexhala? I-24 yeetherapathi zonyango zibhukishwa ngokupheleleyo ukusuka ngoLwesine ukuya ngeCawa. I-spa & apos; s indawo ephambili yindawo enezinto ezingama-98 zangaphakathi kwigumbi lesimbiwa saseHungary esine-skylit dome. Umnyango ukhokelela kwidesika engaphandle apho ibhafu ye-whirlpool ihamba phakathi kweebhanki zekhephu. Yindlela yokuphumla yokuphelisa usuku xa abasebenzi bexesha lokuvala kufuneka barhuqe abakhenkethi baphume kumbhobho weqokobhe elingaphantsi kweendonga zenqaba zamatye amnyama.

Ihotele eRimrock Resort
Ipaki yeSizwe iBanff, eAlberta

Kule minyaka imbalwa idlulileyo iindwendwe ziye eBanff ziye zanikwa ingxaki entle. Ngaba kufanelekile ukuba bayeke umtsalane we-Banff Springs weRimrock ephucukileyo, eyavulwa ngo-1993 ngamagumbi angama-345 kunye nama-suites angama-21? Iifowuni ezinzima, kodwa impendulo yam ithi ewe, ngenxa yamagumbi amakhulu (malunga nesithathu ), Ukutya okuphezulu, kunye neembono eziphakamileyo.

Ihotele ngama-700 eenyawo ukuphakama, isiqingatha seemayile ukusuka kwinqaba iVan Horne & apos; Ukusuka kwigumbi lam, ndingajonga uMlambo iB Bow udubula umsantsa ophakathi kweTunnel Mountain kunye neMount Rundle & apos; s slab enkulu yelitye lekalika elijingxileyo. Ngaphesheya kwe-Bow Valley uluhlu lwekhephu olukhazimla elangeni. Ndacinga ukuba iibhere zizifihla emahlathini awolula ezantsi kweRimrock ukuya kwithafa loMlambo iSpray, apho iingcuka zincedayo entwasahlobo. Ekungeneni kwayo, iRimrock ayithathi ndawo, isakhiwo esinemigangatho emithathu siboshwe kwilitye lekalika elaphukileyo kunye ne-stucco eluhlaza eluhlaza, efulelwe ngetini eluhlaza. Nje ukuba ungene ngaphakathi, uyaqonda ukuba ungenise imigangatho ephezulu yesakhiwo esinemigangatho esithoba emile ngathi lihashe; uninzi lwehotele luyehla ngezantsi, lwehle intaba.

Ngqo phambili yiGrand Lobby, enendawo enkulu yomlilo emhlophe emhlophe ehluke kakhulu kwiindawo eziqhelekileyo zamatye eRockies eCanada. Iipaneli zeMahogany kunye neekhaphethi ezenziwe ngesandla phezu kwemigangatho eqinileyo yomthi zinegalelo kwimozulu yeklabhu. I-chandelier ethandekayo yintsimbi yasendle yamasebe esinyithi anamagqabi kwigolide eluhlaza.

Nangona amatyala eRimrock ngokwawo njengehotele yabakhenkethi, uninzi lwezenzo azikho kwindawo. I-Banff, indawo engama-7,000, iyimitha ukusuka. Iibhasi ezihamba ngenqwelomoya ukuya eNtabeni iNorquay, kwilali yaseSunshine, kunye naseLake Louise, ukuya ezantsi ezivenkileni nakwiimyuziyam. Kwimihlaba, unokukhwela kwi-rink yangaphandle emile okweqanda okanye usebenze kwindawo ebanzi yokuqina.

IClassico, iRimrock kunye neapos; indawo yokutyela, ilingane ngokufanelekileyo kwimizobo yaseCanada. Umpheki oqeqeshwe eJapan waseSwitzerland uzikhulule ngokuncomekayo ngezo zitya zasemantla zase-Italiya (ngaba ukulungele?) I-caribou loin irubhiweyo ngetii yeamangile. Intlanganiso engaqhelekanga yeempembelelo zobuhlanga, kodwa ngandlela thile iyasebenza.

IChateau iLake Louise
Ipaki yeSizwe iBanff, eAlberta

Ngo-1990, iCanada Pacific yagqiba ukwanda kwe- $ 65 yezigidi kunye nokulungiswa kwale ndawo inamagumbi angama-511. Ngeliphandle, ihotele yaseSwitzerland iAlpine resort yayiyifuna. NjengeBanff Springs, yayihlala kubuqaqawuli oboyikekayo. Ngoku, kwakhona, iChateau ikulungele ukusetwa kwayo, ijonge ngaphesheya kweBanff & apos edume kakhulu echibini lentaba kwindawo enesithsaba sekhephu seNtaba iVictoria.

Olona tshintsho lucacileyo kwigumbi lokungenisa, ngoku ekugqibeleni lilungele ihotele ephawulekayo. (Kwiminyaka edlulileyo ubusoloko uziva ngathi usebenzisa ukungena kwenkonzo.) Iliso lakho litsalwa kwangoko kwisilingi yomgubo-bhulowu, onemigangatho emithathu, ekuxhonywe kuyo ikhandlela elinjengevili elimalunga neenyawo ezili-15 ububanzi, ehonjiswe ngecartart yeenkuni ezikroliweyo zobisi bephethe iitotshi zombane.

Onke amagumbi ahlaziywa kuphuculo olukhulu, kwaye malunga nesiqingatha sokujonga ichibi; Ukuhlala kwenye yezi lilungelo elibiza ama-20 eepesenti ngaphezulu — kufanelekile ngaphandle kokuba uluvo lwakho lwegumbi elinombono lithetha ukubukela umabonakude xa ulele. Ii-suites ze-Duplex zenza i-splurge eyanelisayo, enezindlu zangasese ezimbini, indawo yokutyela ezine, kunye nebhalkoni kwigumbi lokulala eliphezulu.

Ukutya kwigumbi lokutyela elide, elimxinwa i-Edelweiss, yeha, kuhlala njengakudala. Iimbono zamachibi azinakuba nothando, inkonzo yobuhlobo, isalmon yaseBritish Columbia iyoma, imifuno iyaqhwalela. Ndikhetha ii-fondues kunye ne-schnitzels kwi-Walliser Stube enepanele; Ukutya apho kufana nokutya kwilayibrari yendlu yaseBavaria.

Iindawo zikawonke-wonke zehotele — ezibuyiselwe endaweni yazo, zapeyintwa ngokutsha zaza zakhiwa ngokutsha — azikhange zibonakale zingcono. Iifestile ezi-arched kwiLakeview Lounge zimema i-lolling, kodwa i-Chateau & apos; indawo yamandla aqhekezayo kungekudala iyabagibisela bonke kodwa iindwendwe ezihleli zivela kwizitulo zabo zokufunda kunye needesika zokubhala. Ngaphandle kwendawo emhlophe emhlophe emhlophe, abantu abatyibilika emkhenkceni baye kuhlola ezinye zeendlela ezintle zaseNordic kwiiRockies. Ukuhamba ngenja kubhukishwa kwiveki ngaphambi kwexesha. Abaqengqeleki kumatheko asebusuku kwi-oval ecociweyo phambi kweChateau bazifudumeza ii-chestnuts ezigcadiweyo kunye netshokholethi eshushu kwinqaba yomfanekiso oqingqiweyo. Abantu abathandana nothando ezintliziyweni zabo kunye nokuthintela ukubanda kwemithambo emithanjeni yabo bayagobhoza phantsi kwemigubasi kunye nentloko-yeentili kunye neminye imiphefumlo efana naleyo ekusikeni okutsalwe ngamahashe aseBelgian Cross.

Yintoni eyenza iChateau ibe yindawo ekuyiwa kuyo kwilizwe liphela yiLake Louise Ski Area, iimayile ezintathu emantla kwiNtaba i-Whitehorn. Ukubukeka, akukho nto eMntla Melika iyiphakamisayo. Ukusuka kwicala elingaphambili le-Whitehorn itreyini ye-Bow Valley ihla iinyawo zakho iphinde inyuke kwakhona eludongeni olukhulu lwentaba olwenza i-Continental Divide. Ngaphezulu kweendlela ezili-100 zeleyisi yeWhitehorn kunye neeapile, izitya, kunye neeboulevards, kunye neSunshine Village kunye neMount Norquay ziimayile ezingama-35 ezantsi kweTrans-Canada Highway.

Kwikona enye kumi ibhedi elingana nobukumkanikazi eneebhokisi ezintathu zedreyini yonyawo. Isihlalo sothando lesikhumba somzingeli oluhlaza sijongana nekhabhathi kunye nendawo ekugxilwe kuyo: indawo yokubasa umlilo.
