Our stay was absolutely amazing. You could tell that our room had been recently redone, it was very nice. We enjoyed the spa and all it had to offer. Great way to spend a couple's day away. The food was fantastic in the lounge. The only drawback is that there is a conference room right above and it is not sound proofed. The music from the event was drowning out the nice soft music in the lounge. Besides that, everything was fantastic!

Unacceptable for a hotel of this calibre

Facility is nice, staff are nice. Was not able to get room service. The phone did not connect to them and the front desk could not reach them either. Had to end up ordering take out food. Unacceptable for a hotel of this calibre.

I have been staying at Fairmont MacDonald for my winter staycation since 2017. I am so happy to see the hotel's many improvements in sustainability. Keep up the great job! I am also delighted to meet Hendrix. He is such a friendly and adorable dog. I loved everything about the hotel and the wonderful hospitality of all the staff on the Fairmont Gold floor. I am looking forward to more winter staycations there.
