The hotel

The Fairmont couldn’t be more convenient placed for travellers, its right inside the airport! Don’t let the thought of noisy planes put you off though, it’s completely soundproof ensuring a peaceful stay in the height of luxury. You don’t even need a shuttle bus; the lobby extends right onto the concourse, the first hotel in Canada to do so! World-class amenities include a state-of-the-art health club with indoor swimming pool, a children’s wading pool and saunas. There is also the Absolute Spa offering a whole range of treatments to effectively combat jetlag — perfect for those who want to be on top form right from the word ‘go’! Dining is also a treat at the Fairmont with the award-winning Globe at YVR Restaurant not to be missed. What’s more, children 5 years and under eat free in the restaurant with children between 6 and 12 years half price! The Jetside Bar is also very popular and make sure you indulge in afternoon tea, a great tradition at the Fairmont with specially-blended teas and a delicious variety of house-made cakes and pastries.

The manager was amazing, the check in lady was amazing, the dinner server was amazing, the breakfast server was amazing, all the food was amazing...it can’t get any better than this for a layover.. Everything was perfect and all of the workers should be commended on their jobs. Because of the corona stuff going on, the gym, spa, pool, and sauna, and gold lounge were closed after my first night. This is of course a bummer but I’m glad they took steps to minimize socializing and keep everyone safe. The gym is very adequate with machines and free weights, the sauna and shower area were plenty nice private and inviting. The rooms were large and comfortable but the bathroom was very special where it was situated in the room, how the large it was, where everything was situated. There’s nothing to fault this place with... nothing. Read less

We stayed here last year and we are hooked. Excellent rooms and a nice view of the airport activity. Such a treat to wake up , walk down stairs and go though security. We were booked for this week and booked a non refundable room through hotels.com . Due to COVID19 we can't travel now. With ease we cancelled the room and got our money back.

This is by far the best option in Vancouver if you must stay at or near the airport. Very convenient when you arrive late or have an early out in the morning. The lobby bar has a great vibe and the food is delicious, but our waitress was young and slow. The fitness center has a lot of equipment, however, the pools leave much to be desired. … Read more
This is by far the best option in Vancouver if you must stay at or near the airport. Very convenient when you arrive late or have an early out in the morning. The lobby bar has a great vibe and the food is delicious, but our waitress was young and slow. The fitness center has a lot of equipment, however, the pools leave much to be desired. The front desk staff was very friendly and helpful. The concierge had no idea the Whistler Resort had closed due to the Coronavirus. Very unfortunate that our spring break was cut short, but we were thankful to be at the airport and hadn’t made the long drive up to Whistler. Read less

What a luxury. This is the second time that we have stayed here. It definitely is a great and convenient place to stay in the airport. Upgrade to the gold floor if possible! This time, we stayed at the Fairmont on our way to whistler, as well as coming back from whistler. Not absolutely necessary, but a definite luxury.
