The Fort Garry Hotel—officially the Fort Garry Hotel, Spa and Conference Centre[1]—is an early-20th-century hotel in downtown Winnipeg, Manitoba, that opened for the first time on December 11, 1913.[2] Built by the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway, it is one of Canada's grand railway hotels and the only surviving remnant from that era in Winnipeg.[3][4]
It was designated as a National Historic Site of Canada in 1981,[5] and as a Manitoba Provincial Heritage Site in 1990.[4] A national heritage park connected to the hotel and to the remains of Upper Fort Garry was completed in 2017-2018.[6]
