We came to Vancouver for a few days to explore the city before heading onto a spa on Vancouver Island. This hotel is ideal in its location...central to everything. We walked and/or took short cab rides to Chinatown, Gastown, Granville Island, Stanley Park, etc.

I spend 100 nigts a year in hotel rooms around the world and could not be happier than I was in my stay in this charming hotel. Rooms are great; charming and clean, nice balcoies and entertaining views. You cannot beat the location if you are in Vancouver to walk and shop.

An overcharge on our restaurant bill was never rectified and the manager never called us back. Staff kept passing us on to someone who wasn't there and they never called us back. A $60 overcharge is a big mistake! What a disappointment
