This is a low end Shangri-La among the hotels in the chain. The facilities are bare bone, We had 2 suites, one of them was tiny. For breakfast, we had to wait for half hour to get a table, then wait another half hour to get food. Service in the hotel is mostly indifferent. Room smells.

Dear Seeker7738,

I am very disappointed that we clearly failed to meet your expectations. We are a smaller size hotel in the Shangri-La Hotels & Resorts group, with 119 rooms. However, we often receive compliments on our guestrooms and amenities.
I am sorry that you had to wait for breakfast due to busy volume at the time. This is not the way we normally operate. The smell you are referring to is due to our new carpets (new carpet smell) which we installed in all our guestrooms recently.
Thank you for your feedback and I sincerely hope that you will give us another try on your next visit, to Vancouver to experience the true Shangri-La hospitality.

Kind regards,
Kari Koskela

Shangri La is always my husband and my favourite hotel when going to Vancouver. Spacious & clean guest room, great staff, yummy breakfast / dinner, best location to hang around, dine or shop in downtown! Have tried other brand hotels but we think Shangri La is the best in Vancouver!!! It is highly recommended and we would definitely return!!

Dear Jessie Y,

I very much appreciate the time and effort you have spent to share your feedback in regards to your recent stay with us. I'm thrilled that you chose Shangri-La as your home away from home, a true urban oasis in the heart of Downtown Vancouver. I am pleased you enjoyed our spacious guest rooms and breakfast at Market by Jean-Georges. I am thrilled that you enjoyed our convenient downtown location, which is walkable to Stanley Park, and is steps away from the luxury shopping along Alberni Street, and the restaurants and shops along Robson Street. I'm very pleased to hear that you received flawless service during your stay, as this is the hallmark hospitality of Shangri-La. We appreciated your recommendation to return and looking forward to welcoming you back to Shangri-La Hotel, Vancouver very soon.

Kind regards,
Kari Koskela

So for our romantic Vacations my husband and I have always splurged and gone to the Four Seasons.... But I'll be honest... Shangri-La BLOWS four Seasons OUT OF THE WATER!! We were amazed at the details in each room.. luxury at its finest! The room was spacious and clean, every staff we interacted with was phenomenal! The front desk staff with extremely friendly and made us feel like we were valued and important, not just another guest walking through the door. Rodolfo at the Concierge was extremely helpful and friendly, and gave us awesome suggestions for Dinner and Breakfast. Even though the hotel is downtown on busy Georgia Street the ambiance of the hotel is very relaxing. The location of Hotel cant be beat... walking distance to great shopping and restaurants... everything is just minutes from the Hotel!! Thank you Shangri-La for an amazing time!! I am now trying to convince my Husband we need a Bathroom Mirror TV!!

Good sized rooms considering it is in the centre of Vancouver with a nice big bathroom (including a large bathtub). The breakfast included is table service rather than a buffet which made a nice change. Nice outdoor patio area with a small swimming pool and hot tub.
