This is a very beautiful, grand and sophisticated property. The king standard room was spacious with wonderful details -- very nice peaceful colors. The bathroom looked recently updated and spotless. Quality toiletries and luxurious bed and bedding. Tea kettle in addition to coffee maker was a nice to have. Central location--shopping and restaurants in walking distance. Staff were wonderfully helpful.... more

I recently stayed at the Fairmont Hotel in downtown Vancouver for a conference I was attending. The service and location were excellent, however the room itself was only slightly above average. Also, when I arrived on time at check-in, my room was not ready. The beds and bathroom were fine, although the bathroom was not quite as clean as one... more

I am absolutely delighted by the Hotel Vancouver. Having just spent three nights at the Empress in Victoria, I must say the Hotel Vancouver is a MUCH better hotel than its sister Fairmont in Victoria! In fact, my recent stay at this hotel must rate as one of the best stays I've had in a while. Every staff I met... more

We just got back from a long weekend at the Hotel Vancouver and can't rave enough about our stay. The hotel is located at the very heart of downtown Vancouver in a gorgeous old building that is a delightful antidote to the usual, modern (read: bland) downtown hotel towers. The service and staff were first-rate. The concierge gave us several... more

This was the second time I stayed at this hotel for a conference, and for 5 nights. Again, it was a wonderful stay, and I'd return in a minute. I had a standard room, #575, that overlooked a side street, but not bad when the view is of Tiffany and a Ports 1961 shop. Other than the occasional emergency siren,... more

I loved this hotel, we stayed here for one night after we arrived to Vancouver. The staff is exactly what you would expect, very (VERY) friendly and helpful. The room we stayed is was a standard room but very spacious and clean and furnished with typicall fairmont. furniture, which I love. We had little time and were suffering from a... more

I stayed here for 3 nights while up in Vancouver attending some concerts. Location can't be beat. I travelled from Seattle via Amtrak. Tip: Take the "sky train" light rail from the station near the train station to the Burrard station, and walk less than a block to the Fairmont Hotel Vancouver. Alternately, a cab takes about 5-7 minutes and... more

Stayed at the Fairmont for 3 nights for some Vancouver sightseeing at the end of a ski trip. Great location in the city centre. The hotel room was ok although the bathroom could do with some updating. We were out sightseeing most of the time so the room was not that important. Hotel staff were all excellent with great service... more

I recently stayed at the Fairmont in downtown Vancouver for a business trip. The location of the hotel is smack dab in the middle of downtown and is convenient to everything. Shopping, restaurants, etc. are just a walk outside your hotel. The rooms are nothing special and actually were somewhat run down. After a multi-million dollar renovation I expected more.... more
