Fairmont Airport

During the two day saga of a recent trip home from visiting Victoria B.C. we were offered a hotel voucher from Swoop Air due to twice canceled flights. Re-routed to a WestJet flight from Vancouver the most convenient hotel location is the in-terminal Fairmont Vancouver. Opened in 1999, it's a short walk to either International or Domestic terminals by indoors or outdoor walkways. Skytrain station is also in-terminal for trips to downtown and other points nearby. Well outfitted with amenities and luxury finishes, it's a busy hotel. A variety of dining experiences, conference, fitness and business conveniences available. Your usual excellent hotel staff at all levels is on hand to make your stay comfortable. We were offered an upgrade to a Gold Level accommodation with exclusive services, but we opted for a standard king size room. The thin lozenge shaped bathroom was worth the inconvenience of our flight cancellation alone. Offerings from Le Labo of Grasse, France via NYC (Estée Lauder corporation) lotions, shampoo/conditioner/body wash, marble floors and countertops, separate W/C, shower and extra long soaker bathtub made two tired travellers feel pampered & refreshed. Of course, there's the quintessential mini-bar, TV package and room service, but we didn't take advantage of any of these specific features. One improvement I'd like to see adopted by more hotels is heated bathroom floors. Concierge services on duty. Thank-you Fairmont!

Great and convenient location from the airport, was able to get a good nights rest before our flight. Service was excellent, staff was efficient and friendly. Got a free upgrade to the mountain view with a great place spotting location. One con about that was that you'll hear airplanes take off, but that's to be expected since you're in an airport hotel. I noticed that some of their fixtures in the room were old or not completely spotless in the room. All in all a pleasant experience.

This is a lovely, quiet, comfortable hotel that could not be more conveniently located! We’re so fortunate to have such a nice place to stay right in the YVR terminal. The bar is also spacious, lively and has a nice view out it’s huge windows. The staff is helpful, calm, friendly. Great experience!
