__________________________________________________________________________________
Thanks to Michael Lambert, Probus Vancouver has a rare opportunity to explore Vancouver’s newest luxury hotel, the Fairmont Pacific Rim, at the foot of Burrard Street.
Among its many amenities are a double-height lobby with lounge opening onto an outdoor terrace, a spa, rooftop pool with cabanas and fire pits, 377 luxurious guest rooms and a 15,000-square-foot business centre considered to be state-of-the-art. http://www.fairmont.com/pacificrim

The site of Fairmont Pacific Rim site is ideal, offering spectacular views of the North Shore Mountains, Stanley Park and Howe Sound. The hotel has an underground link to the newly expanded Convention Centre. It’s close to Canada Place, the cruise ship terminals, float plane, Skytrain and Seabus services, and it’s within walking distance of Gastown and the city’s downtown.
We’ll gather at 9:30 a.m. for coffee in the hotel; our private tour of the facilities starts at 10:00 a.m. Our staff guide will take us through the public areas, show us guest rooms, give us a look “back of house” and provide an insider’s insight into the hotel’s operations.
If you’re driving, onsite parking costs $9 per hour. By transit, take the Skytrain to Waterfront; walk along West Cordova past Burrard Street to 1038 Canada Place.
This event is limited to 40 people, PROBUS Vancouver members only. If registration exceeds 40, we’ll maintain a waiting list in case of cancellations.
