"Enjoyed the spacious room, with comfortable beds and good AC. The roof top and patio pool are nice, and plenty of seating when available. Excellent views if you face the water. Plenty of dining options nearby and transit is accessible if you prefer quick access to the old city rather than walking. The hotel staff were helpful and pleasant. For those with a car there is some parking.
The negative - I found that lounge chairs and towels weren’t cleaned promptly throughout the day, with many chairs having used towels lingering and no guests using them. It would make for a Better experience if they had a proper pool attendant, rather than what appeared to be house keeping grabbing stacks of towels here and there. Elements of my room, though comfortable, were starting to show age.
Overall good stay."
"Loved staying at the Fairmont! I had a hairpin city view room with two large double beds to celebrate a birthday with a friend and they provided the highest level floor room and a complimentary cake. Superb staff and housekeeping that went above and beyond to accommodate any needs. Central location- 4 minute walk from the casino and also sea front. Beach was also a close walk and great amenities like steam and sauna. Would love to stay here again!"
"My only complaint was the way it’s advertised you would think the beach is a part of the hotel, and maybe it is but when I found out they wanted to charge me $35 per chair and $5 for a towel I was turned off.
Being a hotel beach, if that’s the actual case I think guest should have FREE access to chairs and especially towels. We walked down to the next
Set of chairs and umbrellas paid $30 for chairs and towels. And the lunch was amazing also.
That was my only issue, I booked a week for the beach so $80 a day for the beach just didn’t sit well.
Otherwise great location to everything. Can’t comment on the food. We would probably stay there again but having the knowledge of the beach is helpful"
"Exceptional location, luxurious room and breakfast buffet at a very reasonable cost, the views are breathtaking, the staff friendly and attentive— I have nothing but rave reviews!"
"Great location. 1 minute walk to the beach promenade and the hotel is located on a quiet street filled with various eateries, a patisserie, souvenir shops and a 4 minute walk to the opera house.
The breakfast is very good. The only complaint I have is that there is only a kettle with instant coffee in the rooms. A great improvement would be a nespresso type of machine."
"L’hôtel était parfait, mais le wi-fi promis dans les chambres a été inaccessible pendant tout notre séjour, malgré l’avis qui avait été donné à la réception"
