10/10 Excellent
"I love this hotel. We had a quiet room on the 3rd floor with two double beds. After a long travel day, it was lovely to enjoy a meal in the lobby lounge and hunker down in the room in the coziest Fairmont robe. My only complaint was the check-in process: they were very busy and we waited 45mins in a very long line when we arrived to check in, which was less than ideal after flying all day. Would still stay here again, it’s fabulous."
