Fairmont Pacific Rim

This place is 11/10 if you want great service with smiles, the sauna was under renovation, hopefully they’ll call me back with a voucher when it opens up , to accommodate my next stay 😉

We went for breakfast while we were staying which they were hosting in the lobby bar at the time since the restaurant was under renos. The staff were all so great considering it was running different. We had Jess as our server who was so lovely and was so above with us. We were torn between getting sweet or savory for breakfast. When we chose savory (with her advice) she then snuck to the back and brought us back a couple of sweet pastries to balance us out. It was such a small gesture that was so personal!!

I stayed one week at Fairmont Pacific Rim for a business trip during winter, and this hotel clearly stands out among Fairmont properties. The location is outstanding. Right on the seafront, it offers direct access to the waterfront path, which is perfect for a morning jog along the water. The seaplane terminal is right in front of the hotel, while downtown Vancouver is immediately behind and easily walkable — a rare combination of calm, views, and centrality. Unlike many traditional Fairmonts located in older, historic buildings, the Pacific Rim feels fresh, modern, and very well maintained. Furnishings are contemporary, elegant, and in excellent condition, reflecting recent CAPEX and strong attention to detail. The rooms are spacious, clean, and well equipped, fully meeting the expectations of a 5-star hotel. The bed is extremely comfortable, and even with a partial water view, the outlook over the harbor is a real pleasure, especially in the morning or at sunset. Breakfast on the second floor is excellent, with high-quality products and a refined atmosphere — ideal before a workday. One of the hotel’s strongest assets is the ground-floor restaurant and bar. Whether for a coffee, a business meeting, or dinner, the ambiance is exceptional. The fireplaces create a warm, lively atmosphere, and the space is consistently full — always a very good sign. Check-in service was professional and efficient, without being particularly memorable, but everything ran smoothly throughout the stay. Overall, this is a premium, modern Fairmont, perfectly suited for business travelers who want comfort, atmosphere, and a top-tier location. Despite being expensive, the experience fully justifies the price. I would definitely return and would highly recommend it, especially for business stays in Vancouver.
