Stayed at this on our way back from a cruise trip. Price-wise, it was one of the cheapest around. But it smelt of cigarettes all around. The fact that you had to use your room keys even to go up the elevator didnt give you a good feel for the "safety" aspects. Went down to the pool, and that too... more

If you didn't actually require internet, this hotel would be acceptable---not special, but quite acceptable, with somewhat small but generally average sized rooms. Clean. The adjacent Moxies restaurant was very good. However, many like me, on business, expect and require intenet access. By 8:30 pm there really was no access, it had slowed that drastically. Management explained that they "had... more

We stayed at this hotel for our first trip to Vancouver. The hotel was reasonably priced and convenient to local transportation. First rule, never book a room on the outskirts of town when you travel with a lazy bum. It was a 45 minute ride on the bus into Vancouver. This is not the hotel you want if your travel... more

The Sandman Airport hotel is of course convenient for the airport but is only a C$30 taxi fare from downtown Vancouver. We stayed for 2 nights on our way in to British Colunmbia and 1 night on our way out. Our rooms on both occassions were not 5 star (you get what you pay for) but they were comfortable, clean... more

We stayed at the Travelodge nearby who would not let us use their restaurant as it closed at 10:00 pm. So we went next door to the Sandman. It's a lovely restaurant with creative food - I had a huge Romaine Lettuce slice, cut lengthwise with tomato puree vinegar dressing, crab cake and scallop cake. Onion soup was good too.... more

So after my horrible experience at the "Coast Aiport Hotel" (coast must be a verb in this case), I frantically started calling around and came upon Sandman. The front desk person was excellent in helping me book a room at very short notice at a great price. The room was immaculate, the hotel was located in a great area (walk... more

everything in the hotel was great, I have no problem with receptions like some did in above posts, staffs are pretty friendly and helpful. but 2 things i dislike A LOT. First, it's the air conditioning, we stayed @ the loft room, and there's only 1 air conditioner for both floors, and it's not central a/c like most of the... more

This is a very good hotel. The room was magnificent, a staircase led to the upstairs to a bedroom. It has a very nice restaurant, and the room was clean, and customer service was great. It is located near the Vancouver Intl Airport. more

I stayed at the Sandman Hotels and Suites November 16, 2007. I had a 7:00am to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico the next morning. It is super close to YVR and there is a free shuttle to YVR in the morning. Of course I tipped the driver though. I got to the hotel, and they were almost at capacity, so we got... more
