We had an awesome experience. We arrived a little late on Xmas day after a troublesome time with the car rental company (Budget did not have a car for me despite having a valid reservation). The hotel staff was friendly and upgraded me to the penthouse. The room had outstanding views. My kids thought they were in heaven with such... more

Booked room through package on travelocity and received a miniscule room and very shabby. Staff unaccomodating. Worse was restaurant and bar closed for holiday parties with outside groups making noise all through the night. Had to traipse across the island in 30 degree weather for food as room service was also all but shut down. Definitely not a hotel to... more

We loved the scenic views and the location--specifically, ample food, drink, and dining options within walking distance, and a 5-10 minute drive to downtown via the Burrard Bridge. A daily CAD$8 parking fee is charged. You get a pass which allows you unlimited parking at any (legal) spot on the island. Parking is a challenge, and so is traffic. Agree... more

We stayed at the Granville Island Hotel for one night in late September prior to embarking on a cruise. The hotel was well appointed, our room comfortable and decorated in a traditional style. The size was adequate for us -- as we do not spend a lot time in a hotel, preferring to see the city instead. There was a... more

Very pleasant hotel and particularly helpful and accommodating staff. The room we stayed in had a superb view over the marina at the back of the hotel. The bed was huge and the room a good size. We has breakfast at the hotel twice. There are a variety of options at a reasonable price. The location, although not downtown, was... more

We chose this hotel for the last 4 nights of our 2-week holiday and were not disappointed. The staff welcomed us with great warmth and throughout our stay were genuinely pleased to offer help and advice on topics such as buses (including whether it was better to walk or take the ferry). Our room was on the ground floor, and... more

We have just returned from a week at this little gem of a Hotel. Dont let the look of it when first arriving put you off, once inside you will find the staff friendly and helpful and genuinely interested in your wellbeing. We stayed in an executive suite - a large comfortable bed for my husband and I, with a... more

We spent 3 nights at the Granville Island Hotel during our recent trip around BC and would have to say that we were disappointed. We had booked a ‘standard room’ and were initially placed in a room at the back of the hotel in desperate need of refurbishment with a cold tiled floor which was truly awful (especially after a... more

This was the first stop of a two week vacation in Canada. The front desk staff were very friendly and welcoming after our long flight. Having read reviews that the rooms are small, I was surprised to find that our room was huge! It was ground floor so looked out onto the car park, but this was a small price... more

This is a wonderful hotel with really nice staff and is a beautiful place to go for a drink or to stay. We arrived after a 9 hour flight from London on our honeymoon and thanks to our bestman the hotel knew about this and upgraded us.Then later in the evening the booking for the penthouse was cancelled, and guy... more
