EXchange Hotel Vancouver
Stayed at EXchange Hotel Vancouver for four nights and had a great experience overall. The rooms were spotlessly clean, staff were friendly and helpful throughout our visit. The only minor downside was the mattress—it’s quite soft, which is actually common across most hotels in Canada, especially if you have back issues. We ended up sleeping directly on the bed frame instead, which worked better for us. Location-wise, it’s excellent—both SkyTrain lines converge right nearby, making it super easy to get around the city without needing to transfer. One thing worth noting: water pressure is a bit low, but that’s something I’ve noticed in several Canadian hotels too, so it’s not unique here. All things considered, this place offers fantastic value, convenience, and comfort for travelers who want a central, no-fuss stay in Vancouver.
West End Guest House
Staying at West End Guest House felt like coming home—warm, welcoming, and full of charm. Kathy was incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to help with local tips and travel advice. My room was spotless, thoughtfully furnished, and so comfortable I barely wanted to leave. The atmosphere had that cozy, personal touch you don’t often find in bigger hotels. Breakfast by Barbara was a true highlight—creative and beautifully presented, almost too artistic to eat! That said, I personally would have loved a simpler English breakfast option alongside the gourmet dishes. Still, the overall experience was outstanding. From the location near downtown Vancouver to the thoughtful touches throughout, this place offers a genuine, intimate stay. If you're looking for something special and authentic, this is it. Definitely worth returning.

Staying at this Holiday Inn & Suites in Vancouver Downtown was an absolute highlight of my trip. The location is unbeatable—just a short walk from all the major downtown attractions, and public transit is super convenient. I loved how many great restaurants were within steps of the hotel, making dinner plans effortless. What really stood out to me was the value for money—given how pricey hotels can be in Vancouver, this place offers excellent quality without breaking the bank. Clean rooms, friendly staff, and a comfortable stay overall. It’s definitely one of the best options for travelers who want convenience and affordability in the heart of the city.
