| This luxury hotel is located at the Vancouver Airport. It's perfect for those catching an early flight out as it is simply an elevator ride away from the departure area.

| I keep coming back to the Fairmont Vancouver Airport. It is in the airport so it is easy to get to and from. It has a great restaurant. The staff is friendly & personable. The rooms are comfortable and quiet. Ground transportation and parking are readily available. (Note: Vancouver traffic can be slow and frustrating during peak hours.) Did I say quiet? People I travel with are amazed at how quiet this hotel is. After 6:00 PM, the air traffic slows to almost nothing. Even when a plane goes by, it is over the runway and not the hotel. The hotel was built custom to deflect aircraft noise but it also effectively blocks noise from other rooms and from the hallway. I am sensitive to noise and I feel this is one of the quietest hotels I have stayed in during my many travels.

| I would highly recommend the Fairmont. The rooms were very nicely appointed, comfortable and extremly quiet. Loved the large marble bathroom with extra large tub and seperate shower plus the down comforter on the king size bed.The staff were very helpful but unobtrusive and the unique views watching the planes arrive and depart from your bedroom window will stay with me forever. Loved my stay and hope to visit again!

| We go skiing at Whistler several times a year. It has become a tradition to stay at the Fairmont at the end of the trip. The rooms are fabulous, and the convenience of being in the airport can't be beat!

| I travel for work and just happened on this hotel for a last minute trip. I can't say enough about the service and people here. The rooms are beautiful and big and the views great. I didn't even have to go outside once I arrived the entrance is directly in the terminal along with all the restaurants and even a 7-11. The rooms are soundproof so unless you open your curtains you would never know you are almost on the runway. If you need to go into Vancouver there is always a cab or shuttle to be had. Will definately put this on my must stay at list.

| Being able to quickly go from customs to check-in at the hotel in 5 minutes or less is a bonus after a long journey to British Columbia. Elevators or escalators wisk you up to check-in in no time at all.
