lives on in Western Canada from the Pacific to the Rockies
In Western Canada, the tradition of la Route du Bonheur – or the road to happiness – lives on, miles from its French roots of vacationing between manors, villas, and châteaux, but always in the traveling spirit of Relais & Châteaux. Experience the rich character, charm, and culinary excellence of our partners as you navigate between each distinctive property and its own enchanting setting. Start your journey on the remote, rugged west coast of Vancouver Island at eclectic Tofino, where the Wickaninnish Inn’s hand-carved cedar structures stands elegantly above the dramatic surf of the Pacific Ocean. Drive along Vancouver Island’s mountain range and follow the freeway North to Campbell River where you will catch the ferry to the Sonora Resort, the absolute jewel amidst one of Canada's most alluring, pristine environments. A spectacular seaplane ride or leisurely ferry through the San Juan and Gulf Islands will lead you to Vancouver's cosmopolitan city centre, where the Wedgewood Hotel & Spa, your home away from home, is perfectly located amidst the gardens and waterfalls of fashionable Robson Square. Dine minutes away at Chef Daniel Boulud's Relais Gourmand Lumiere Restaurant & DB Bistro Moderne , showcasing a synergy of European sophistication, modern French cuisine and local ingredients and creativity. Venture just past the border of the province of Alberta, and amidst the snow-capped peaks of Banff National Park, you will find the Post Hotel. Perched at 1500 metres in the breath-taking Canadian Rockies, this cherished Alpine chalet is renowned for its fine dining and an award winning wine cellar of over 30,500 bottles. Relais & Châteaux offers you the opportunity to explore our Western Canadian Route du Bonheur whether at one, two or all of our member properties: west to east or east to west - the choice is yours in discovering these special places and the unique luxury experiences they offer, because any direction on this journey leads you to the road to happiness. Relais & Châteaux: "ALL AROUND THE WORLD, UNIQUE IN THE WORLD."
