Hi Chris. Love the classic look of the exterior of the hotel and the modern feel of the interior. Nice comfortable room, but the bathroom is really small. Thanks for sharing and take care.
Nice video. The hotel's interior and outside both have a contemporary air that I love. Nice, cozy room, however the bathroom is rather tiny. Regards and thanks for sharing. 👍
The Gold room & services at the Hotel Vancouver are awesome! So much room, HUGE bathroom, and outstanding concierge services. And the separate check in was great. Check it out next time. :)
Thank you for the honest review! We always stayed across from it at the Four Seasons which was extremely nice with a huge indoor/outdoor pool. Sadly it closed and they didn’t open a new one. Two things about this Fairmont…. The spa used to be very good and there is a ghost in the hotel - just ask the staff - they know.
I work as a travel agent and this hotel is one of 3 principals hotels that are sold with luxury cruises alongside The Sutton Place and Fairmont Waterfront.
Thanks for this! I was thinking the Fairmont was probably very fancy. Glad we were able to stay at the Hyatt on points instead. Still no breakfast buffet, by the way.
Regardless of why you are staying there, you MUST visit nearby Butchart Gardens! There are buses that stop in front of the Fairmont and will take you directly there. How good is it? I don't like taking photos, but there I took roughly 100 photos!!
Spunky Princess made this review. Spunky Princess is just adorable. I love the dual shower heads. I wish hand held shower heads were a little more commonolace in residential and hotel bathrooms.
Hey Mr. Rainey. Do you think you’ll ever do a review on the YWCA Hotel in Vancouver? I heard it’s a pretty decent budget hotel in downtown Vancouver. But, I would love to hear your thoughts about it.
I have to check a bag on United Embrear 175 but i have a connecting flight one hour after i land will my bag come out in jet ramp. Or can i have the gate agent put a transfer tag put on bag for next flight.
Typically if you "gate check" the bag then it will come back to you on the jet bridge or plane side. If you check it the normal way at the check in counter then it'll be transfered to your next flight
Stayed here in April. Old and creepy is how we found it! 3 adults, travelling for 2 weeks but stayed at the Fairmont 5 nights. Room wasn’t too big, bathroom tiny and so little storage we had to live out of cases for the duration. Not fun. Overall a poor stay for the cost
You're not dressed for the Fairmont.😁 I'm not Fairmont material, I always feel under dressed in shorts and T-shirts. 😂 My hotel of choice is the Renaissance. But the last few times I've stayed in Richmond and drive or rail in to downtown. I really like Richmond. Unique for Canada, like a little Asia.
I agree that the bathroom looked quite small. I'm usually not too happy when I can't fit all of my toiletries in the sink area. I really liked that the Spunky Princess got to state the Topher ranking for the hotel!

300k followers coming soon. I remember when you crossed 200k and it is ramping up it seems. Awesome!!
Thanks Wutaii1! Now that people are back to traveling again it's great! :)
Hotel Vancouver is iconic landmark of downtown Vancouver
My favourite local hotels as a Vancouverite is Fairmont Waterfront, Westin Bayshore or Opus in Yaletown. Fairmont does have gorgeous lobby washrooms.

Fantastic Mascot!

Interesting note on the ghosts 👻
Ha! Was the biggest talk when we stayed there for GOV. Both the ghost and the pool 😅
I work as a travel agent and this hotel is one of 3 principals hotels that are sold with luxury cruises alongside The Sutton Place and Fairmont Waterfront.
I'll need to check out those other two next time 😉
Fantastic! Thanks for the great content!
Thanks Canal do Gus!
What a classic hotel.
Sure looks better than my stay on April Fools weekend in Yucca Valley, CA Best Western plus.
Ooof. Yeah. Any Fairmont is probably better than any Best Western
Thanks for this! I was thinking the Fairmont was probably very fancy. Glad we were able to stay at the Hyatt on points instead. Still no breakfast buffet, by the way.
THANKS FOR THE REVIEW
We stay at the Wedgewood, a short walk away. We love it.
I go to Vancouver tomorrow it’ll be my first time there 😊
Enjoy it!

Thanks for the tip Richard!
Spunky Princess made this review. Spunky Princess is just adorable. I love the dual shower heads. I wish hand held shower heads were a little more commonolace in residential and hotel bathrooms.
Awww. And yeah. Definitely agree on the need for more handheld showers
mm the high tea they have at the restaurant is great 🍵

Thanks gtown.. the YMCA hotel probably isn't in any of our near plans... I do enjoy my luxury hotels 😉
@gtownmonarch Thanks for putting this on my radar - it looks really modern and bright. I agree a review would be fun to watch.
I have to check a bag on United Embrear 175 but i have a connecting flight one hour after i land will my bag come out in jet ramp. Or can i have the gate agent put a transfer tag put on bag for next flight.

So this was where tha suite life of Zach and Cody ?

Glad to hear we weren't the only ones that were underwhelmed
What about the cheesecake you were going to place in the fridge?
I talked about the cheesecake more in this vlog near the end: ua-cam.com/video/Xo6wyQ_uANo/v-deo.html
@@YellowProductions Thanks - just watched that one. We're off to Japan in a month and your videos have been very helpful.
Very disappointing hotel- but another fantastic honest review , amazing work Chris, I’ve never been impressed with that chain
Thanks Janelle... we really enjoy the Fairmont in Whistler... but yeah... this location wasn't that great
Been to that watch service before to repair a Girard Perregaux.
Neat

I'm not a fancy dresser :)

Thanks! I think Spunky Princess announcing the Topher rating will be our new trend when she's around 😉
Even for the "lower" price that's a rundown hotel
As a resident of Vancouver I'm embarrassed. That Fairmont is old. Needs to be knocked down. The waterfront Fairmont way nicer.
That might be the most posh Vanvouver thing I ever read
Musty? You said it, built 1930's.
Good enough for Queen Elizabeth and Indira Ghandi.

Chris from Vancouver we have a very similar statue to Copenhagen mermaid. (Google) Girl in a Wetsuit
Interesting. Indeed quite similar!
