High quality finishings in the room and hotel. You can tell a lot of thought went into the decor and amenities. Our room was fairly quiet, however if you are a light sleeper and there will be parties or events going on at the hotel, consider requesting a room on one of the mid or high level floors. There was a xmas party going on Friday night and we could hear the music in our room on the 2nd floor. I would stay here again, though. Very beautiful and convenient location with lots of history!

We recently stayed at the Fairmont Hotel, and Homeyra at the service desk made our visit unforgettable. She went out of her way to find us a fantastic room upgrade we hadn’t known about, giving our trip an extra-special start. This was our second stay here, and once again, Fairmont exceeded our expectations. Big thanks to Homeyra and the wonderful team for making our experience so memorable!
