I didn’t have a nice stay at the Fairmont Waterfront due to ongoing construction noise and disturbances from housekeeping. It was a restless and uncomfortable experience. There was no advance notice given to guests about the maintenance work — I had to call and complain after being disturbed by the noise. In the mornings, I also heard vacuuming, knocking, and loud conversations from the housekeeping staff, which made it difficult to rest. If you plan to stay in the hotel between 8 AM and 12 PM, I wouldn’t recommend it, as there’s a lot of noise during those hours. In my opinion, the hotel seems better suited for business travelers, although I did see many families staying there as well. Also, there are no spa facilities in the building, but there are many conference rooms available. That being said, the hotel does offer beautiful day-to-night views, including a stunning sunset, which was the highlight of my stay.

We arrived at 3 PM and the room was not ready till 4. However, Jeff rectified that and provided us with complimentary breakfast for our stay. Once in the room the washroom still had hair on the counter/ shower and the counter appeared to be not cleaned as it still had marks from bottles or some sort on the counter.
