Why guests love itSet above Edmonton's River Valley, the Fairmont Hotel Macdonald gives families a historic address with an indoor pool and a hot tub, welcome during a prairie winter. Rooms have a seating area and a flat-screen TV, useful when children need quiet time. Pets are accepted, the restaurant is on site, and parents can book a massage at the spa. I would choose it for a special family weekend rather than a budget stop. Guests rate it 8.7 across 262 reviews.
