How does an airport property achieve greatness? The answer may lie in The Fairmont Vancouver Airport, a soundproof contemporary boutique-inspired hotel within the Vancouver International Airport terminal that manages to turn the frenzy of airport activity to its advantage. Travelers arriving to explore Vancouver or ski world-class Whistler-Blackcomb look forward to layovers here just to enjoy the 392 high-tech guest rooms, the floor-to-ceiling windows on the runway at Globe@YVR restaurant and lounge, and Jetside Bar, a local after-hours favorite. There's even a fish valet to refrigerate fresh catch in transit.
Rich woodwork, polished marble accents, and natural lighting lend opulence and openness to 8,700 square feet of flexible event space for groups from two to 130, making The Fairmont Vancouver Airport the perfect choice for top-flight business meetings with maximum convenience.

Recommendation to Planners:
The Fairmont Vancouver Airport was the selected site for our Weyerhaeuser Leadership Institute . We used the hotel for 26 classes, with each class being 7 consecutive days in length. 500+ top company leaders attended this training. This is absolutely the best property I have ever partnered with for such an extensive program. Our faculty, who teach all over the world, thought the Fairmont Vancouver Airport Hotel was the best hotel they had stayed at.....and that says a lot because they stay at 5-star properties, world-wide. Kudos to this YVR hotel. Thank you.

I scheduled the Weyerhaeuser Leadership Institute Program at this hotel for our top 500+ leaders, over a 5 year period of time. We held 26 meetings that were each 7 consecutive days (including weekends).This hotel met our every need and many that we hadn't even thought of ! Their customer service is the best on the planet, the employees are the most professional in the industry, and the hotel is a beautiful property. Obviously, I highly recommend the Fabulous Fairmont Vancouver Aiport.
