Best hotel stay in a very long time

Wonderful hotel within the airport. Smooth check in & we were even early. Staff was amazing & Gold floor was 100% worth every extra penny we spent. Staff went above & beyond & always had a smile. I had given up hope on this kind of service…but it definitely exists at the Fairmont!
