"In 2017, the Fairmont, a classic 1960s hotel, got a major renovation by Sid Lee, a young, playful agency that created a totally fresh vibe, including new business facilities. Today, the high-traffic hotel, which is located next to the train station, has a young, cool crowd and more energy than ever. You can get fancy and book a stay in the very room John Lennon and Yoko Ono stayed in for their famous Bed-In. The renovated Fairmont Rooms, meanwhile, are decorated with geometric wood furnishings and colorful abstract wallpaper. The Fairmont is a true hub; in fact, locals often walk through the lobby just to soak up a little glamour on their way to or from lunch. This hotel, which spans a full block, is a true hub; in fact, locals often walk through the lobby just to soak up a little glamor on their way to or from lunch." - Isa Tousignant, Todd Plummer
