Sustainability

Inspired by our beautiful home city, Fairmont Waterfront’s green practices within the hotel and into the neighbouring communities rank as a ‘5 Green Key‘ Hotel and a ‘4 Green Key Meetings‘ Hotel by Green Key Global.
For the past 25 years, Fairmont Hotels & Resorts has been committed to protecting its local environments through its award-winning Fairmont Sustainability Partnership, and is hailed as a pioneer in promoting sustainable travel in Western Canada.

At Fairmont Waterfront, we acknowledge that we live, work and play on the un-ceded and traditional homelands of the
xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil Waututh) and Coast Salish peoples.
