A beautiful hotel, comfortable and well thought out room. Didn’t hear the planes despite it being in the terminal at the airports - great soundproofing. The staff were very friendly and responsive. The food at the restaurant and room service were tasty.

Best airport hotel in North America?

Large, luxurious, and clean room had everything needed in a five-start property plus a telescope for plane-spotting and a nice jacuzzi tub. The lounge served excellent food including truffle ravioli, shrimp stuffed mushrooms, and braised beef over vegetables. I stayed one Friday night, so this was a perfect ending for a hard work week.

In a flight cancelation emergency where my mostly blind Mom and I were stuck in Mexico, the Fairmont was a lovely place to layover on our way home to Comox. We had a superb midnight supper after a visit to the Gold lounge. It just so happened thatone of the last 2 rooms available landed us on the 14th. Most comfortable bed I have EVER slept in. Thank you. Darcie Frederiksen
