Fairmont is a leader in the global hospitality industry, with a distinctive collection and a worldwide reputation for excellence.
Nice deep bath tubs. But $8 for a bottle of Evian? Hmmm...
This 4-diamond hotel on prestigious West Georgia Street is Vancouver’s Castle in the City.
Harbour and Mountain Views Bright, spacious, contemporary rooms Exceptional 5 star service Health club and outdoor heated pool ~
The hotel has a beautiful aura about it. Very comfortable and leaves you feeling like you are right in a scene from The Great Gatsby.
The Banquet Facilities are spacious.
The Hotel is a very classy place to call a home away from home.
Thankfully the hotel was so well appointed because the stay in Vancouver otherwise was not very impressive.
What a fantastic hotel and great value! The rooms were lovely, the service excellent,
the staff friendly and they even have a dog you can take for a walk!!
I would recommend paying a little extra for a harbour view room.
This is the grand old dame of downtown Vancouver. Sitting regally at Burrard and Georgia, it is literally next to everything and moments from the Waterfront, Coal Harbour, Robson, Alberni, Granville, Gastown and Yaletown.
The hotel has bikes to borrow, umbrellas if it's raining and even a couple of Golden Retrievers if you'd like to take them for a walk.
Great facilities, beautiful old-world charm, amazing location.
The fairmont don't have wriless.bring ur cable line with you when u stay here.
It was great weather for handing around in downtown as well.
The Gucci and Louis Vuitton stores were attached to the lobby
The lobby bar is wonderful.
Lots and lots of comfy armchairs and sofas, crazy cocktails
(I had a golf-themed one with gin, rosemary, and juniper spray!), and live music!
Sometimes a piano player, sometimes a piano player who sings,
or brings a singer - sometimes an actual band!
It's GREAT. I always feel pampered here.
They don't rush you along to turn tables, either, so you can nurse your $19 buck cocktail,
relax, chat, and do some serious people-watching in comfort.
There are different tea which you can chose ..very throughful.
I couldn't find Taiwan's flag...
My freind's car...It costs $30/day and comes with unlimited in/out privileges (interestingly enough you'll also pay $30/day if you want to park your own car, although you'll still get unlimited in/out).
Two hotel dogs are available for walks and greet guests upon arrival.cool!!
Afternoon tea time ~Great Paino bar with live paino band.
Dog toy~It's for sale.
The rooms are well appointed and decorated in a traditional manner.
There is a comfortable bed, bedding and a least one really comfortable chair for sitting and reading. If you're a President's club member (it's free), WiFi, Adidas workout gear, gym access, bikes, daily newspaper shoeshine are all free.
There are other hotels I prefer in downtown Vancouver but this one has an amazing location and the Fairmont history.
If you like something a little more traditional, then this is your place.
Nestled between the majestic coastal mountains and the tides of the Pacific Ocean lies Vancouver,
a city that attracts travelers from around the world who are drawn to its spectacular scenery and energetic lifestyle.
At the very heart is Vancouver's landmark,
The Fairmont Hotel Vancouver.
Like the city that surrounds it, the hotel is rich in history,
resplendent in natural beauty, vibrant and cosmopolitan.
Within its walls you will find the luxurious Absolute Spa,
an exclusive Fairmont Gold floor, a state-of-the-art health club,
award-winning restaurants and an array of designer shops in downtown Vancouver.
Some of Canada's most unique features are the majestic railway hotels that were built across the country by the Canadian Pacific and the Canadian National Railways.
For their time, these hotels were miracles of construction and engineering.
Everything that went into them was the biggest and best of their time and they
have become very much a part of Canada's national heritage and identity.
This is the third hotel to be named 'Hotel Vancouver'.
The first was a five-story, brick structure that looked and functioned much like a farmhouse.
The second, built from 1912-1916, and opened in 1916,
became the meeting place for Vancouver society.
The second Hotel Vancouver was turned into a government administration building during World War II and torn down in 1949.
Canada's present Hotel Vancouver took 11 years to build because construction was halted for five years during the Great Depression.
It was started by the Canadian National Railway but was finally completed under a joint operating agreement with the Canadian Pacific Railway.
Hotel Vancouver in British Columbia was opened in May of 1939,
in time for the Royal visit of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth at a final cost of $12 million.
A $70 million restoration in the mid 1990s has ensured that
The Fairmont Hotel Vancouver remains at the very forefront of Vancouver's best hotels.
Best location for shopping in downtown.
High speed internet charge for $15.62 per day.
Ready for breakfast at Griffins restaurant in the Fairmont.

Enjoy the great time in the Fairmont.It's an extraordinary experience.
The Hotel Vancouver, run by Fairmont, is one of the most posh hotels in the downtown core.
The annual UBC engineering ball always was held here, and it was a great event.
