GTR Hotels
Like the CPR and CNR, the GTR began building and operating hotels during the first two decades of the 20th century. Most of the hotels survived the takeover of the GTR by CNR in 1923 and were operated by Canadian National Hotels:
- Château Laurier 1912-1923 - acquired by Canadian National Hotels and later by Canadian Pacific Hotels; now part of the Fairmont Hotels and Resorts chain
- Jasper Park Lodge 1915-1923 - acquired by Canadian National Hotels and later by Canadian Pacific Hotels; now part of the Fairmont Hotels and Resorts chain
- Hotel Macdonald 1912-1923 - acquired by Canadian National Hotels and later by Canadian Pacific Hotels; now part of the Fairmont Hotels and Resorts chain
- Fort Garry Hotel 1913-1923 - acquired by Canadian National Hotels and now independently operated
- Highland Inn (Algonquin Park) 1905-1923; sold to Government of Ontario and demolished
