Although this an old hotel, and the halls smell old, it’s a lovely place to stay and I highly recommend staying here! Close to so many amenities and easy walking to buses to downtown and ferries to Granville Island and other attractions. The food in the restaurant is really good with vegetarian/vegan choices at reasonable prices.

This heritage hotel has been modernized sensitively and sensibly. The location is conveniently close to Denman Avenue shops and eateries and Stanley Park walks. Staff are very helpful and friendly. The views over English Bay from the dining room are superb! Parking was available at a reasonable rate in an easily accessed coveted garage.
