The hotel

A veritable castle in the heart of the city, the Fairmont Hotel Vancouver is an impeccable symbol of indulgence and pedigree. Offering the luxury and services of a world-class hotel, all guest rooms are beautifully furnished with every attention to detail observed. Facilities include a state-of-the-art health club, accessible 24-hours a day, with indoor heated swimming pool and saunas. Pilates and Yoga classes are available at the Sitka Studios or treat yourself to some well-deserved pampering at the Absolute Spa. There’s also some prime shopping in the lobby with designers stores selling plenty to tempt you! Although you’re close to plenty of restaurants and bars in the downtown area, the Fairmont’s very own Notch8 Restaurant & Bar is the ideal place to relax and watch the world pass by. Named after a train’s top speed, achieved only by the most skilled conductors, the restaurant pays homage to the hotel’s storied history and legacy as a luxury hotel along the Canadian Pacific railway. A traditional afternoon tea is also served here daily — for a special occasion, add a glass of champagne or, if the kids want to tag along, childish delights include Bubblegum Tea, fresh strawberries and cream and a giant chocolate chip cookie!

We loved our stay at the Fairmont. Upgraded to the gold level and thought the special amenities including breakfast, afternoon tea & scones and evening desserts made it so worthwhile. Thank you to Maya on the 9th floor for all of her many kindnesses to our group.

We only booked the accommodation one day out, so as such the word limited rooms available. as an Australasia diamond member I could still have access to the gold lounge which was great for breakfast afternoon tea or canopes in the evening. We used a suite upgrade and initially were on the second floor which was quite loud due to everything going on, but for our second night we went to the seventh floor which was wonderful. A great gym a nice swimming pool, and a real treat of a regal hotel. a nice treat staying here thanks Rebekah organising our room change. Read less

Pros: great location, right opposite the inner harbour (though noisy, even on the top floor), friendly staff, Veranda a very pleasant place for a drink or light bite; good gym Cons: generally looking a bit tired; Q restaurant dark, dingy and very unappealing - even the staff there seemed less engaged; two lifts to get to the eighth floor a bit of a drag; in common with other Accor hotels, no acknowledgement of loyalty club privileges. It wasn’t awful - far from it, and we quite enjoyed our stay but really it’s a bit stale. I get that it’s trading on tradition but you can do that in a slightly more up to date way, for instance by changing decor and server uniforms and using IT better - I mean, checking against pieces of paper at the restaurant welcome desk? Really? Read less
