I stayed at the Marriott in the heart of downtown Vancouver for 5 nights and had a very pleasant stay. What sets this particular Marriott apart from other top quality hotels is the extra effort by the front desk staff to make their guests feel special and appreciated.

My stay was jointly for business and pleasure and the front desk staff assisted in numerous ways whenever I needed help by sending faxes or offering tips to great restaurants in the area. Upon entering the lobby, I was regularly greeted by my proper name which was really a nice touch that I appreciated. This type of service is uncommon in most hotels in this day and age.

The room was very comfortable and as always, Marriott supplied an outstanding bed.

The valet parking team always had my vehicle ready on time and assisted loading my snowboard equipment in the car whenever I left for the slopes. All in all, I would highly suggest this hotel when staying in Vancouver.

I really don’t think this property was as great as the reviews.

I have stayed at several Vancouver hotels and several excellent Marriott’s this is not one of the best.

Several things were not what they should have been;

·The assigned room had a bad TV it was fixed promptly but only partially. It really was a poor TV for the expected quality of the room.
·The shower could have been cleaned a little better, a little rough for a newer hotel.
·The noise from adjacent rooms was substantial when people arrived and departed.
·You will have to pay for parking at this hotel there just isn’t any street parking in this part of Vancouver.
·You will also have to pay for Internet use. To many hotels just include this service to be charged $18 a day
·I also don’t think the location is as good as other hotels. Major shopping is four blocks.
·If you want a restaurant selection, you will also need to walk a good four blocks.

On the good front, the staff were all very friendly

There are many nicer hotels at the same price range to come running back to this one soon.

Try the Waterfront, Pan Pacific or Four Seasons for much better value.

I stayed at this property with my wife for five nights in November. I was expecting the typical Marriott business hotel... but we got a better than expected hotel that we would choose again for our next stay in Vancouver.

The hotel is fairly well located for most of the Vancouver attractions (both business an pleasure). I walked to the convention center each morning and my wife walked or biked to most of the main Vancouver attractions.

The staff were very friendly... Here's a tip... get your dinner recommendations from the doorman...

I stayed at this hotel for pleasure not business. The property was excellent with very attentive staff. Valet parking was great and staff were always helpful and happy. Valet parking is 27 per day and self park is 23 a day.

I had a room on the 23rd floor facing North which gave me a view of the Harbor and of Stanley Park. The view was excellent and the way the rooms are designed is so that guests do get a great view from 80% of the rooms. The room was very clean and the bed was one of the best I've slept on.

The property was well situated and walking distance to almost everything downtown including Robson Street and about 25 minutes to GM Place or 5 minutes by cab. I would stay at this property again for sure without hesitation.
