The Castle in the Rockies

It took me most of my stay to finally figure this place out. Towards the end of my stay, and fairly confident, I saw a couple with luggage and a glazed look and asked if I could help.

"I've been here a week, " I said, to explain my expertise.

"Have you found your room yet?" he asked. "Do the restaurants give you crumbs so you can leave a trail?" What a crack up.

Later, I overheard an older Englishwoman saying to her companion with glee, "It's just like a Harry Potter movie, isn't it?"

And then there was the guy complaining, "This place has old rooms. We should have stayed in Banff. I HATE old rooms." Sooo, I wanted to ask, you booked into a hotel that is over 100 years old and has it's own historian expecting...??

Speaking of which, I had to go on the hotel tour offered by said Historian. He was full of stories about the rich and famous. Prince Philip figured prominently in more than one; he obviously had a fan.
