If you are expecting a gorgeous place in Downtown Vancouver with all amenities and top-level customer service, don't come here. However, if you are looking for a great location for a reasonable price, English Bay Hotel can be a great choice if you are willing to accept a no frills place. The place is quite old and in need of... More

We stayed two nights at the English Bay Hotel. The outside looks worn, lobby dumpy. But...the room was fine, very "vintage" furniture, clean, crisp sheets. Another recent reviewer reported bed bugs, but I saw no evidence of any insects of any kind. The accommodations are basic, but we weren't there to spend a lot of time in the room. We... More

Despite the apparent cleanliness of the hotel and various good reviews we got bed bugs. I woke up covered in bites! This does not mean that the hotel is a terrible place but I would check with the local health authority before booking here. When we approached the front desk about it they claimed never to have had an issue,... More

My husband and I had had 6 nights staying at the English Bay Hotel after our cruise disembarked in Vancouver. As others have already mentioned, the foyer is underwhelming and doesn't look very welcoming. However, does a fancy spacious lobby make for a good stay? Not in our case. Our room (225) was spacious and on the second floor. It... More

We needed a suite for 3 adults and a teen while spending 3 days in Vancouver. When we arrived at the English Bay Inn I was a little put off by the blandness of the lobby and room but quickly changed my mind when we opened the curtains in our corner suite Room 323 for the amazing view of English...

Loved the location. The hotel isn't luxureus, but to spend your holiday basically on the English Bay Beach for that money is amazing. The staff was really helpful when we wanted to come back, after a bad experience elsewhere in Vancouver. I definitely will be coming back, when I'm in Vancouver again.

I stayed at the English Bay Hotel in September, and found it to be clean, safe & quiet. My room faced the street with a view of English Bay. It could use a fresh coat of paint & some new curtains, but it was perfect for my needs. The bed was comfy with lots of soft pillows & warm blankets.... More

This hotel is in a great location and really handy having a kitchen and fridge, meaning you don't have to eat out every meal. It was pretty quiet even friday and sat night but our room was not facing out onto the street. Basic but clean. A lot of other hotels in this price bracket seem to have shared bathrooms... More
