Canadian Rockies. Styled after a Scottish Baronial castle, the hotel is known as the<br />
“Castle of the Rockies.”<br />

Other options include visiting one of the town’s museums, taking a soak in<br />
the natural hot springs, enjoying a massage, or striking up a conversation<br />
with a local at one of the town’s coffee shops. Tonight, your Tour Director<br />
