What the classifiers highlight
A grove of 755 illuminated glass leaves lights the entrance to this tower, opened in 2010 for the Winter Olympics near Vancouver's waterfront. Fairmont Gold rooms get a private 20th-floor lounge over Stanley Park, and Fred Herzog street photographs line the lobby. The Raw Bar pairs local seafood with sake, and Willow Stream Spa fills the fifth floor.
