We found his hotel a good location if you are thinking of attending the Ice Hockey at Rexall Place. You can easily get there by accessing the subway system half a minutes walk from the hotel. The room was nice. We did find the mini bar facilities to be quite dated and average. There seems to be alot of functions... more

During my annual pilgrimage from England to visit my family in Edmonton I decided to take a break from the hectic (but most enjoyable) atmosphere of ten grandchildren, so spent a couple of quiet nights at the Fairmont. I treated my daughters and their husbands (sans children) to a meal in the Harvester and they all say it was a... more

All the staff were very professional, from the restaurants, the health club, the bar... more

Thoroughly enjoyed splurging at Easter with my spouse at this hotel. It was a great mini-holiday and worth the cost. more
