Best in Vancouver

Have stayed in Vancouver twice before and will only stay here after this. The restaurant was excellent and the hotel was super clean, quiet and well appointed. Art, restaurants, boats, market, gardens, walking and biking are why so many come to Granville Island. Leave the street populations and all that comes with it behind and stay here. Easy public transportation and shared ride to anywhere; take the False Creek ferries like the locals and meet some!

The hotel is not grand but charming, in a nice location. The rooms are big. Bed linens look elegant and are comfortable. Service is superb. Some rooms have view of the water. It has a waterfront restaurant too. I do appreciate the service and a touch here and there to make your stay just a little more pleasant. Will stay again.

Good location but dated rooms. I had to request a second chair so my husband and I could both have a place to sit other than on the bed. They were quick to provide it, though it was a bit worn. Restaurant was excellent. Need more comfortable lounge chairs inside and out.
