Hotel is absolutely beautiful. Staff was so friendly and there is so much to do onsite. We also walked to town (about 25 min walk), but the Fairmont provides free transportation on the public bus which is a very easy and convenient way to get around. We will certainly be back!! Gorgeous place to stay.

The staff was excellent! ❤️ The room was extremely HOT! Do not get a room on 9th floor! And our room in front of elevators! Traffic noise all night. A full refund would be appreciated! Not pleased there are no rooms that pets are not allowed. Hot tub gave me foot fungus. Old and historic beauty but a been there done that hotel. 😔

The Fairmont Hotel has an upscale ambiance, but the pricing does not reflect the value of the services and amenities. We paid $1,000 per night, yet the hotel does not offer free parking—we had to pay an additional $105 for three nights. On top of that, Wi-Fi isn’t included, which is disappointing for a hotel in this price range. The mini-bar was underwhelming, stocked with only some butter and no beverages. The spa services were also overpriced—I paid $339 for a one-hour massage, which can easily be found elsewhere for about one-third of the price. Furthermore, the hotel restaurant was extremely expensive, making it hard to justify dining on-site. While the property itself is beautiful, the overall experience doesn’t live up to the cost.
