The Fairmont Hotel Vancouver - Property information

What to expect: One of Canada’s great railway hotels, the Hotel Vancouver opened in 1939 and was restored in the 1990s. Early guests included the English monarchs George VI and Queen Elizabeth. Its elegant décor and chateau-style architecture have never gone out of fashion with vacationers, and business travelers appreciate the prime downtown location and extensive business facilities. The hotel’s busy lobby is an attraction in itself-- Italian marble floors, Edwardian frescoes, and antique furnishings.
• Amenity highlights: Grand but relaxed, the hotel has a state-of-the-art health club offering personal trainers as well as exercise equipment. A pool and spa complex includes a children’s wading pool and specializes in classic pampering—facials, mud wraps, massage, nail care, and European Kur treatments. The business center features private workstations and numerous business services.
• Insider tip: Robson Street, Vancouver’s eclectic outdoor shopping mall—a must-see attraction—is just 1 block from the hotel. Shops include A/X Armani Exchange, Club Monaco, Mexx, and a host of others. Street-front cafes and restaurants with patio seating make perfect spots for watching the daily parade of shoppers and passersby.
