The Burrard

Stayed here the night before and night after our Disney Cruise to Alaska. Really cute place to stay, lots of little extras that make the difference; free bike rental, ping pong table, attached coffee/bakery cafe. Lots of eateries and shops within walking distance. Small drawback is the slow, small elevator. Quick tip- catch a taxi at the Sheraton right next door- much faster than waiting out front.

This place is a small boutique hotel in downtown, close to many restaurants and places of interest. Staff is helpful and friendly. Room is clean and the bed is comfy The only problem we encountered, was the portable A/C being loud when operating. We turned it off at night and opened the windows instead but the street can be noisy at time. Other than this, everything was good.

We picked this place because it had a fun, trendy vibe, lower prices, and a good location. Overall the stay was good. The room is pretty small and if you have more than one suitcase you won't have anywhere to put your stuff. The decor in the room felt a bit sparse and sterile and not quite as "hip" as you'd expect. You are across from a hospital and while we did hear sirens in the evening, I didn't ever get woken up by one in the middle of the night. We had a couple minor maintenance issues (the handle to the shower came off in my hand and I had to figure out how to snap it back in--I'm just a tiny woman so it's not like I muscled it off), but the staff was friendly and the location was close to both Yaletown and Downtown. I'd look around for something different next time but I wouldn't rule out staying here again for the right price.

Comfortable hotel in a very convenient location where one could walk almost anywhere central on foot. Eating, shopping, sightseeing all very close by in this wonderful city. Only drawback being the extreme noisiness of the air conditioned unit which resulted in very poor sleeping as the room was extremely hot without it on.
