sassyredhat Posted February 25, 2008 #2 Share Posted February 25, 2008 It's been awhile, but our hotel was the Fairmont. Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBearLady Posted February 26, 2008 #3 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Does anyone know what hotels HAL uses for pre/post hotel stays in Vancouver? Mary HAL used to use the Fairmont. I stayed there in 2001 and it was superb, but really expensive. But then all the good hotels near the piers are expensive. I made my own reservations at Pan Pacific for my upcoming cruise and I believe that HAL might use that one too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuthC Posted February 26, 2008 #4 Share Posted February 26, 2008 In different years HAL has put me at both the Fairmont Waterfront and the Pan Pacific. Each of these is a fabulous place to stay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
music lady Posted February 26, 2008 Author #5 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Thanks, I am hoping they will use the Fairmount Harbour. We stayed there when we did a Canadian Rockies land tour when it was new, and had a window overlooking the cruise ships and harbour. It was fabulous. We even tried to get reservations on our own, but they are sold out for 6/27/08. Mary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HokiePoq Posted February 26, 2008 #6 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Last June we were in the Fairmont Airport, the one you walk through the airport and enter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vaquita Posted February 26, 2008 #7 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Just coming from a Vancouverite, The Fairmont Waterfront is under construction at the moment, so they most likely venue would be the Pan Pacific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boris107 Posted February 26, 2008 #8 Share Posted February 26, 2008 HAL booked ius in the Pan Pacific following our cruise tour in July 2008, there is an international firework exhibit going on that weekend which I hear is wonderful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PathfinderEss Posted February 27, 2008 #9 Share Posted February 27, 2008 We always stay at the Pan Pacific, we just love the hotel and the fact that it sits right over the cruise terminal. They have an informal cafe there that is fabulous, though it is expensive, we think it is well worth the price. I know Hal uses it for pre and post hotel stays in Vancouver along with the Fairmount.

Atomica Posted February 27, 2008 #10 Share Posted February 27, 2008 Just coming from a Vancouverite, The Fairmont Waterfront is under construction at the moment, so they most likely venue would be the Pan Pacific. You might be thinking of the new private residences/hotel Fairmont is building one block over at the foot of Burrard & Cordova (Fairmont Pacific Rim, I believe)...the Fairmont Waterfront, across from the Pan Pacific & Canada Place, is still open & business as usual (at least it looked that way on my walk to work this morning!)

music lady Posted February 28, 2008 Author #11 Share Posted February 28, 2008 Since we had such a great experience when we stayed there when it was new, we really wanted to do it again before this cruise. We couldn't book on-line - no rooms available, so we called the hotel. There is a convention going on that's why there are no rooms. Hopefully, HAL has reserved some for pre/post cruises.
