You couldn’t ask for a better location, unless you have a car. Everything is walkable and transit is readily available. Having a balcony is nice with a street and ocean view. Tons of shopping and restaurants nearby, and of course Stanley Park is right there and English Bay with a beach. We will be back.
Stanley Park and all the beautiful trees.

The hotel is in a wonderful location with English Bay a couple of minutes walk away and lots of great restaurants nearby to choose from. The hotel was clean and the staff were friendly but the room and the hotel itself was a bit dated and in need of some modernisation. The window air con unit was very noisy (too loud for sleeping) and there was a strange smell in the room which we mentioned to reception. Overall would recommend for the location but could do with a refresh!
