Vancouver Hotel Tips by deptlads

Very nice and stylish, good quality hotel, close to the shops on Robson Street. Friendly and helpful staff, and an excellent restaurant (O'Doul's) attached.

If you stay on the "Gallery Floor" you can order a complimentary cafetiere of coffee or tea to be delivered to your room in the morning.

Currently offering quite good rates (CAD122/night for a double) if you make a reservation through their website (see below).

Unique Qualities: Gallery and museum art in the rooms.

We stayed here during the second half of our week in Vancouver in November 2003. Closer to Gastown and Yaletown, it meant that we got to see a slightly different part of the city (we had been at the Listel, down the other end of Robson Street).

This is a good quality hotel, but a little soul-less. The rooms are imacculate, but the studio suites are not really suites at all - just ordinary double rooms with a cupboard which contains a sink, microwave and dishwasher.

We had a nice view from our 32nd floor room, but I'm not sure that it was really worth paying the extra for this. (see our Vancouver page for a photo of the view from this hotel at www.virtualtourist.com/m/625cb/dc80f/).

Unique Qualities: Lets you book a top floor room (for a price!).
