Completing Prestige transformation

Crystal Scott, who became the GM at the Prestige Rocky Mountain Resort in mid-April, is one of Cranbrook’s own, born and raised here. She succeeded long-time GM David Kroeker and has overseen the completion of the hotel’s extensive renovations. Scott glowed as she walked us through the light-filled foyer and along the corridor lined with inviting armchair groupings, to Fire & Oak, the hotel’s new steak, pasta and pizza restaurant. The transformation there is jaw-dropping, while Don Cherry’s Sports Grill remains comfortably familiar. For something completely different, the Prestige’s two luxurious, unforgettable railcar-suite accommodations should be on everyone’s must-see-in-person list.
