Small children should not be picking up HOT heavy lids and going through the buffet line without adult supervision. Please consider a notice before someone is injured.

We had an amazing visit at the Fairmont Vancouver airport. Everything was 100% The only thing I didn’t like was the Rose toiletries but that is a personal preference. Bed was the most comfortable I’ve slept in in a hotel. I want one of your pillows!!

Pros:

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.
