Guest Review of the Fairmont Waterfront Hotel Vancouver |
|
July 6, 2011 We are an extended family of 7 who stayed at the Fairmont Waterfront in late June prior to an Alaska cruise. We were so impressed with our one-night stay that we booked the hotel for a one-night stay after the cruise, even though we had already booked a different hotel. The service was excellent, the location was perfect, and the rooms were modern, spacious, and clean. Overall, we believe that we received great value for the money we paid. I would highly recommend this property. BTW - we also stayed at the Fairmont Empress in Victoria for one night (also post-cruise). That was also a good - but very different - experience. Guest Review of the Fairmont Waterfront Hotel Vancouver July 3, 2011 I was here for a week while my husband attended a meeting that was held in the hotel. If one wanted to use the Internet in your room one had to pay. In my husband's case it was free in the meeting room. For the price the hotel charges for the rooms one would expect Internet connection be inclusive. If you need the Internet go down to the shopping mall below the hotel and go to the photographic shop - they charge you $2.00 for 15 mins and are very pleasant. Our room. that overlooked the cruise ship dock, was always looked after well by housekeeping. However, one day, as I was paddling my toes in the bath, I noticed that there was a tide mark around it!!! A previous occupant of the room must have had a bath and it had not been cleaned. Overall I would say the hotel was fine but very over priced for what one got. I realize this is Vancouver but I am sure there are other hotels which offer the same kind of room, in a good location, but at a more reasonable price. Guest Review of the Fairmont Waterfront Hotel Vancouver July 1, 2011 This is my second time at this hotel. I enjoy the Fairmont Waterfront for the breathtaking view of the harbour and mountains and its floor to ceiling windows. What a beautiful view to have when having breakfast and seeing Vancouver wake up in the morning with the business people taking helicopters to get to work, etc. Both my room and bathroom were larger that usual and very clean. Furniture is up to date and on the modern side. Food within the hotel is excellent. Had great tasting pacific salmon at the hotel's Herons restaurant and a very good steak through in room dining service. I also enjoy the location of the hotel for dining, i.e. walking distance to the chic restaurants in Gastown. To me, this is an ideal hotel when coming to Vancouver. Guest Review of the Fairmont Waterfront Hotel Vancouver June 28, 2011 We stayed at the Fairmont Waterfront the night before we went on the Alaskan Cruise. Because of the Hockey playoff game the night before, our rooms were not ready when we first checked in but there is no way that I can ever fault the service that we received. I feel that the staff went over and above their requirements to get us into our rooms and make sure that we were happy. The rooms were bright, large and very, very comfortable. Unfortunately, I am unable to remember the gentleman's name that was at the Desk that helped us but his friendliness and helpfulness was tremendous. He was able to direct us to a perfect causal place to have dinner that was within walking distance as I have had a recent injury to my leg and mobility is an issue at the present time. Your breakfast in Heron's is phenomenal. My friend is still commenting on the service and quality of food that we received there. The location to the cruise line terminal made our transition from land to ship very easy and was definitely a starring point of our visit. I would definitely stay at the Fairmont Waterfront again and have recommended it to others that are coming out to Vancouver. Guest Review of the Fairmont Waterfront Hotel Vancouver June 28, 2011 Not only didn't the phone in my room not work for two days, the front desk staff (Jane) was very nasty and unprofessional. She cost the hotel one guest (a colleague checked out the next morning and went to another hotel). Jane needs to be seriously retrained or permanently removed from working in the hospitality industry as she has left a horrible impression on the Fairmont and City of Vancouver! |
