I would have loved staying at the Fairmont Waterfront Hotel in Vancouver even without the perks of the Fairmont Gold Experience, which included private check-in and access to the gorgeous lounge.
Every room in the 489-room hotel has floor-to-ceiling windows to maximize the views. From my beautifully appointed room, I could see the Columbia River, Stanley Park and the North Shore mountains.
The hotel’s prime location, across from Canada Place, was also near Gastown, and perfect for exploring the city’s first downtown.
Another highlight was dinner in the garden where I got to meet the resident bees and the beekeeper.
