We enjoyed our overnight stay at this Fairmont hotel; connected by an indoor escalator to the Vancouver Airport. Really convenient for short layovers! Huge windows and lovely large bathroom were the first amenities we noticed. A regular-sized tub! Bed was very comfortable and had selection of pillows to choose from. Instead of putting a privacy card on the hallway side of our door, we could press a wall button to signal “do not disturb”. Thanks for a lovely stay.

I've stayed at the Fairmont Vancouver Airport several times, both when traveling solo and with my family. It costs a bit more than hotels outside the airport, but it's worth it for the comfort, convenience and the warmth of the staff here. Instead of waking up at 4am to get on a ferry and then bus or taxi to the airport, I can stay at the Fairmont and sleep in, eat a leisurely breakfast and then casually stroll to the check-in counters. This alone is worth the price of admission. But the crowning glory here is the staff. I don't know how they do it, but everyone here remembers your name and they greet your personally upon arrival and in the morning. I've had great interactions with everyone here, but Dmitry really deserves a special mention. He always greets me with a big smile when I appear in the lobby and he goes out of the way to see that my family and I are comfortable. Finally, the views here are fantastic: you can see planes landing and taking off, sunsets over the Gulf Islands and Vancouver Island, and the coastal ranges. It's the perfect way to begin a trip to Asia or anywhere else in the world. Highly recommended!

Good option for a night before/after a flight. Huge hotel that is directly connected to the terminal (although signage from customs could be better). Gold level probably not worth the premium, interiors feel a bit dated and sound insulation from the planes could be better, but for an airport hotel about as good as it gets.

We had a great two night staycation before flying out to Miami. Great rooms, staff and food selection multiple times throughout the day. Peaceful and made the travel morning so easy and seemless

Fairmont Vancouver Airport continues to be one of our family's favourites. Just knowing we have a friendly, clean, comfortable room to stay in before a long journey is something we always look forward to. The staff are wonderful, the location cannot be beat, and the amenities on site are fantastic. Why would we stay anywhere else before a flight? We will continue to come back again and again.
