There were lots of shops and restaurants in the area (grocery store, liquor store, Shoppers Drug Mart, etc.) The room was clean and safe and had a full kitchenette. My room had a view of the mountains and the bay and a beautiful sunset at night. It was close enough to walk downtown in 20-30 minutes or to Granville Island (about a 10 minute walk to the water taxi and a quick ride over). I would stay here again.
The staff was wonderful, fully equipped rooms even a washer and dyer full kitchen. There was a rollout bed and we had a city view.

If you enjoy walking you are 10 minutes from Robson street shopping, or 15 minutes from English Bay beaches.

A short walk of 3 blocks to the ferry to Maritime dock and Granville Island. One block from restaurants, supermarket and chemist in Davie Street.
Great location at the heart of gay area. The rooms were big and comfortable. The staying included breakfast that the gusts take to there rooms why include full kitchen . The service was also good and welcoming.
The hotel is in a great location (Davie Village) of Vancouver especially if you are gay. However, all kinds of people stay at this hotel which I saw (families and foreigners). It is on a quiet street one block away from the busy Davie Street area. The rooms were nice and so good to have a kitchen with a refrigerator, toaster and coffee maker.
It may have had a microwave oven but I did not need one or look for one. You get a free breakfast in the reception area (coffee, waffles, bagels, cream cheese, bread for toast, cereal, etc.) which you bring down your plate and tray from your room and bring it back up for consuming. The front desk personnel were very friendly and informative if you have questions. We had a room on one of the top floors which had a great view of the city from the balcony. Their wifi was good and the beds comfortable (maybe a wee bit soft for me). Overall a great place to stay in a great part of town (walking distance to Sunset Beach too).
The hotel is 1 block from Davie street. Davie is a culturally diverse area, the location for the BC gay pride parade, etc. Every cuisine you can imagine is served on Davie and it is a fun place to hang out. The walk to the convention center is easy going, but relatively uphill coming back. There is a Starbucks 1 block from the hotel, a small grocery 1 block from the hotel. The walk to the convention center has 3 Starbucks on the way. Sidewalks are good, you pass Versace, Prada, Banana Republic and others if that gives you a feel for the walk.
Basically you take Thurlow the whole way, no turns, nothing. The hotel has modern updates, was incredibly quiet, super accommodating. Would love to stay here again. Forget the high prices by the Waterfront, stay here and experience the real Vancouver!
Location close to Davie Street means grocery and veg/fruit shopping is easy for those who are self catering – and lots of eat out options too.
The room are well equipped, clean and quiet.
The rooms are huge and very well equipped, with a kitchen including proper crockery and cutlery and all the appliances.
The bathroom had a double supply of Neutrogena amenities. And a rubber ducky in case of emergencies. Everything was clean and in good condition. Comfortable bed, nice linens and pillows. Breakfast is basic continental plus waffles. If you want a bigger meal there are options nearby.

Harking back to the days when the West End was Vancouver’s first residential neighbourhood, the 1906-built West End Guest House was once home to the Edwards family – some of their photographs of early Vancouver adorn the walls. Current owners Paul Wylie and David Birch have modernised the interiors and plumbing (all rooms are en suite), while retaining a period charm.
The eight individually styled and named guest suites range from lush garden level (Superior King Garden Suite) to cosy top floor (Deluxe king Suite). Complimentary gourmet breakfasts, free parking for each room and free Wi-Fi add to the charm. It is on historic Haro Street, with easy access to the nearby Stanley Park seawall, or Davie and Robson Street shopping areas. The parlour with hearth is ideal for winter contemplation, while the veranda and garden beckon in summer months.
West End B&B is a delight. We stayed there 3 nights at end of July, including the big China fireworks exhibit and the Gay Pride parade – both in easy walking distance. The very gracious host, Evan, made arrangements for our visit to Victoria and Butchart Gardens – another delight. The B&B is elegant, comfortable, perfectly located, offers excellent food and a friendly atmosphere plus privacy. Highly recommended.

The staff is very professional and helpful and if you are embarking or disembarking on an Alaska cruise at Canada Place, this is the best choice for a hotel for you. We loved it!
The location is walking distance to several great restaurants, cool bars, and cozy pubs. And because of the cruise ship terminal and convention centre all the tour buses stop out front – including the free shuttles to Grouse Mountain and Capilano Bridge. There is also an underground mall and tunnels to the skytrain system (including the Canada Line to the airport). If your visit includes liquid sunshine the skytrain will take you up to Pacific Centre Mall, Oakridge Mall, and Metro Town mall where you can hide from the rain drops.
My favourite amenity of the hotel was the Pool and Hot tub – Both are outdoors and in a location where you can fully enjoy the Vancouver skyline. There are several sun lounges and it looked like there is a snack/ beverage hut as well ( it was raining on my visit so it was not open). Our room had the city view which was perfectly fine with me, and the room amenities were great – not over the top, but we had everything we wanted
The hotel is very close to Skytrain connection to airport. Close to Stanley Park and Aquarium as well as many other attractions.
The location is excellent – loads of tour busses stop right outside of the hotel and it is a 5 min walk to Gas Town and a 10 min walk to Robson Street. There is a full Starbucks in the hotel and loads of food options nearby (from fast food to high-end restaurants).
The location is excellent for access to anywhere in the lower mainland whether it’s mountains, beaches, gardens or even Fort Langley.
The Pan Pacific is conveniently located so close to the train system that you can go from the airport to Waterfront station and walk underground all the way to the lobby without ever getting wet.
The decor is tasteful and the bed was very comfortable and clean. The internet is free, fast and reliable.
Book a Mountain view room so you can get the best for your money, it definitely makes a big difference when you wake up in the morning and look outside the window.
The rooms were spacious and very clean. The views of Stanley Park and North Vancouver from the room is just lovely. The size of the room and bathroom is on the generous size too.
The rooms were well decorated with modern bathrooms and they were spotless. Bottled water, tea and coffee is provided in the rooms and there is a turndown service. Room facilities are very good as well.
