We had a great experience with the amenities, but the rooms need a renovation as we had no hot water in the am, which is unacceptable at any hotel, let alone a Fairmont.
The Gold floor concierge are angels!
It was my birthday and a reunion with my family after 3 long covid years. We were all treated like gold in all moments over our two days. Thank you endlessly. We will continue to return to Fairmont!!

Loved the warmth of the lobby and petting Chardonnay. Enjoyed conversation with guests at the wine tasting hour very much. Saunte was delicious.
Only negative is no elevators.
We loved the spa experience, room service dinner was amazing. The hotel room was beautiful and large, but the bedroom TV did not work which was my biggest disappointment. We love watching movies in bed. A maintenance guy came to the room in the morning several times bit was not able to fix it. So we spent our last morning trying to fix the TV for hours but no success. But everything else was lovely.

Was gifted a night at the Fairmont MacDonald as part of a wedding present. My wife and I had a wonderful stay. We would definitely stay again after this first experience.
