Customer Reviews for The Fairmont Waterfront Hotel Vancouver
Our Customer stayed here in March 2008
It doesn’t come much better than this for location, the hotel is located downtown overlooking the harbour, to get there simply get a free shuttle bus from airport to bus stops, than get the 98 B Line bus all the way from the airport to downtown (costs about 3 dollars), bus drivers are friendly and will inform you when to get off (Seymour and Hastings), the staff at the hotel are very informative and welcoming. The hotel had the added plus of an outdoor heated pool and indoor Jacuzzi, gym. The hotel is within a short walk of main streets like Seymour, Granville, Howe and Nelson, Gastown. A nice place to eat and drink was Steamworks in Gastown. You can walk everywhere from this hotel. There are two Fairmont hotels in downtown Vancouver, I only stay in the Waterfront Fairmont but I am sure both have excellent standards. Thanks again Roomex.
