| Reviews of Fairmont Hotel Waterfront |
The view, location and overall experience was simply amazing. The service at
the front desk was a little bit rude, other that that it is simply a perfect
place to stay while in Vancouver !
I liked the rooms it was good. It has a nice outdoor pool and a great view of
the ocean. The kids enjoyed Morgan, the hotels Labrador Retriever and thought
the food was absolutely delicious.
Frankly, I'm not so sure why I love the Fairmont Waterfront so much. There
are more historical hotels in Vancouver, there are trendy hotels, there are
those in better locations and with better values.
But the combination of the Waterfront's location (very close to gastown and
walking distance to anything downtown), friendly staff, relatively new decor and
elegance, great views, steam rooms and gym make this my favorite place to stay
in Vancouver.
Nice lounge and a great breakfast buffet too. Great way to start the day - or to
unwind. |
