Fairmont Le Château Montebello is an iconic Canadian resort property, recognized as the largest log structure in the world. Originally built in 1930, it has a storied history as a private retreat for dignitaries and later as a luxury resort under the Fairmont brand. The property is strategically located along the Ottawa River, approximately halfway between Ottawa and Montreal, offering exceptional accessibility to two major metropolitan markets and the affluent Northeastern U.S. corridor.
The offering includes a full-service, four-season resort with 210 guest rooms, extensive meeting and event space (17,000 SF), five food and beverage outlets, a luxury spa, and a wide range of recreational amenities such as an 18-hole championship golf course, 100-slip marina, sports center, and stables. Recent capital investments of approximately $17 million (2019–2025) have upgraded guest rooms and infrastructure.
The property also includes ±685 acres of excess land, presenting significant development potential for branded residential, additional hospitality facilities, or recreational enhancements. This rare institutional-quality asset offers diversified revenue streams and operational upside through targeted renovations and service optimization.
