Arrived on a Sunday at noonish to smiling friendly faces. An early check in was given to us at our surprise. Room was on the 4th floor facing the construction site next door. There was not much noise noticed at all from that area. Room was clean and everything was in working condition. The beds were very comfortable with great... More

We stayed 2 nights at Best Western Plus in early May. We were pleasantly surprised when a lady staff member greeted us outside and helped us with our luggage. Check-in was quick, courteous and friendly. They even accommodated an early check-in. The room was a standard double, very quiet and clean and well appointed. We enjoyed the roof terrace and... More

Everything worke. The restaurant is very... More

stayed at this hotel for 5 nights in April and had a good stay overall. Very good value for money for downtown Vancouver, although at the bottom of downtown. They accommodated an early check in for us and even though there is a construction site across the alley, our 2nd floor room facing the site was very quiet and we... More

Stayed here for 3 nights and I was totally impressed. Although this is a Best Western with the standard Best Western decor, the accomodations can easily match many 4 stars hotels.The only thing missing from a 4 stars experience is a grand lobby and turn down service, and who really cares about that anyway? Whoever manages this hotel definitely is... More

I was in Vancouver for a week for a business convention. Staff were friendly and housekeeping was great. The free bikes and the free downtown shuttle is a big plus. A construction site is nearby but it wasn't that noisy. A great bargain overall.
