The Christmas Market was about 5-10 minutes away from the Hotel so within walking distance. The Hotel was very nice, modern and right downtown. Staff of the hotel was very courteous. Everything was in walking distance within 10-15 minutes.

The Beds were pretty comfortable and rooms were clean. The only thing we missed was the complimentary Breakfast in the morning. We would stay there again.

Overall it was just what we needed, the carpet in the rooms was amusingly dated. But it was clean, the staff was all wonderful, check out easy, and right across the street from the German Christmas Market so it couldn’t have been a better location.

Loved our stay!! Wonderful staff, clean room, very comfy bed with sheets that actually stayed tucked in and had pressed crispy sheets on it!! Location was perfect, within walking distance to anywhere downtown. Christmas wish breakfast and Christmas market were both just around the corner and many great restaurants very close.

Our short stay was excellent in a city view room.

Even though we did not get to use many facilities we found the location GREAT and the building beautifully appointed. We are sure to stay at the Pinnacle next year for the Christmas Market and use more of your amenities.

Great central location right by the Jack Poole Plaza and the German Christmas Market. Clean, updated rooms and very friendly staff. We will stay here again on our next trip to Vancouver.

We came to enjoy the Christmas Market located 1 block away. We had a lovely weekend in town. The valet service was wonderful as was the wait staff. Our room had an enclosed patio with a harbor view. We would stay at this hotel again.

The stylish rooms feature a 37-inch flat-screen TV, plush bathrobes and a stocked minibar. Each is decorated in neutral colors with dark wood furniture, and offers a vintage work desk.

Few hotels can rival the elegance, European charm and hospitality of The Sutton Place Hotel. One of Vancouver’s most beautiful boutique hotels, situated in the heart of downtown Vancouver. The spectacular setting allows guests to experience exceptional service and all the needed amenities within the cosmopolitan ambiance of the city set against a majestic backdrop of mountains and sea.
 It was right beside Robson St. and everywhere else we want to visit was within walking distance – shops, restaurants, etc. Even the Vancouver Christmas Market, which we thought was very far from the hotel, was reachable by foot. The Christmas decor was amazing and very cozy! Loved the lounge! The room we stayed in was immaculately clean and had a great view of Robson St. I especially loved the bathroom which has a beautiful, elegant design.
Check in was a breeze and so was the check out – we actually did an express check out which you can do on your hotel TV. Just leave the key in the room after and you’re good to go. If you forgot to bring an umbrella, they provide one (in your closet) for personal use during your stay.
The location is great, with a market just across the street for stocking the fridge (although we chose to take the water taxi to Granville for yummy snacks!), and there is a lovely wine shop onsite–the kitchen was equipped with everything we needed to store and serve food, coffee and wine.
The coffee maker, in fact, was full size, a nice touch. The full bath was stocked with towels and a hair dryer; the front closet had an iron and ironing board, and there were robe.
I would recommend this hotel to people who like a quiet, understated place to stay, especially if looking for a large 2 bedroom suite in the heart of downtown.

The central location for all downtown Christmas activities from the European Christmas Market to Fly Over Canada to the train in Stanley Park makes calling the Fairmont home base perfect. The friendly professional staff are second to none in regards to their service and helpfulness.

The location is perfect; it was a short walk to Coal Harbor, Canada Place and the German Christmas Market and we strolled up Burrard to the Art Gallery to see the exhibit from the the Queen’s collection.

There were a nice variety of food offerings including cheese and crackers, salmon pate, little tomato/Bononcini cheese servings, some hot food appies, but all in very tiny portions and not nearly enough to consider a meal substitute–the food is intended to get you through to dinner, like most lounges. Dessert offerings later in the evening were also small and delicious.

Breakfast however exceeded our expectations. There was a chef on-hand for made to order omelets or fresh egg orders, there was sausages and bacon, smoked salmon, antioxidant juice, fresh fruit/yogurt, fresh bakery items, all top notch deluxe and a step above your traditional continental.

There would be no reason to plan to eat again before lunch (again, ideal for cruise passengers).
