- The Belton Chalets are a group of historic hotel buildings in the village of West Glacier, Montana, near the western entrance to Glacier National Park. The chalet buildings were built in 1910-11 by the Great Northern Railway (GN) as the first component of the railroad's ambitious program of hotel, road, and trail construction in Glacier. The buildings featured a "Swiss Chalet" architectural style that set the style for much of the Great Northern's building program in Glacier. Ultimately, the site included five buildings, including a dining hall and a hotel facility. During the 1910s and 1920s the Belton Chalet was operated by the Glacier Park Hotel Company, the GN subsidiary responsible for the railroad's concession operations in Glacier. The property was less successful than the GN's other Glacier facilities, however, probably due to its remoteness from the park's other railway-operated hotels, and by the 1930s it saw only intermittent use. The railway sold the chalet buildings in 1946, and the main hotel building stood empty for most of the next five decades, while a cafe and bar intermittently operated in the old dining hall. In 1997, the property was acquired by new owners who undertook a $1 million restoration of the entire complex, and the hotel reopened beginning with the 1998 summer season. The chalet buildings, together with other sites were included in the National Historic Landmark designation of Great Northern Railway Buildings in 2000. (en)
- Les Belton Chalets sont un ensemble de chalets historiques ayant servi d'hôtels dans le village américain de West Glacier, dans le Montana. Ils sont situés à proximité de l'entrée occidentale du parc national de Glacier et furent construits entre 1910 et 1911 par la compagnie de chemin de fer, Great Northern Railway, pour accueillir les touristes dans la zone du parc. Les chalets, de style architectural « suisse », influencèrent l'architecture de la plupart des autres bâtiments de la compagnie dans le parc. Durant les décennies 1910 et 1920, les chalets furent gérés par la Glacier Park Hotel Company qui était une filiale de la compagnie ferroviaire. La compagnie vendit l'hôtel en 1946 et le bâtiment resta vide pendant presque 50 ans. En 1997, il fut racheté et complètement rénové pour rouvrir dès 1998. Les bâtiments furent ajoutés en 2000 à la liste des National Historic Landmarks au sein d'un bien appelé Great Northern Railway Buildings. (fr)
