More info: Château Frontenac was the first of a series of Chateau-style hotels built by Canadian railway companies in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It was developed to encourage visitors and tourists to travel on their railways. The hotels soon became well known symbols of quality accommodation.

The fortress-like style of Chateau Frontenac designed by architect Bruce Price, was derived from the medieval chateaux of France's Loire Valley and enhanced by its dramatic cliff-top location.
