Vancouver, Accommodation

Wrapping up a very busy week at work, we decided to stay downtown Friday night and have our own "staycation" at the new Fairmont Pacific Rim. What a delight!!! Possibly the nicest hotel room I have ever stayed in, the quality of the property was only surpassed by the view from our Japanese soaker tub. Absolutely breathless - view of the north shore mountains, Canada Place and cruise ships.
The high tech contraptions satisfied our curious nature and the coffee machine was so good I'm on the hunt for one to purchase.
If you can bring yourself to leave your room, also try out the great gym, Willow Stream Spa and one of the best outdoor pool and patio in the city. The scones at the local cafe Giovanes (anyone with the first or last name G must get your photo taken there!)
Thanks Fairmont Pacific Rim! We will be back!
