Advantages: Vibrant, busy and buzzing city.
Disadvantages: For me, nothing special of note in the city

I sent four days in Vancouver whilst on holiday in May / June 2007. We flew into Vancouver, sent a few nights in Seattle, then back to Vancouver before heading up to the Rockies for ten days. I had no idea what to expect of this city. I’d had done quit ... Read review

Not having visited I found this a far more objective review than many I have read (which tend to rave about the place). I look forward to reading other reviews of yours. by andrewfleminguk

Advantages: Big city convinence with small town friendliness
Disadvantages: Very busy during summer months

If visiting Vancouver be sure to take the "B.C. ferry" to Vancouver Island and visit Victoria even for the day. It has the feeling of a Small town with all the conveniences of a Big city. With whale watching, gorgeous scenery , great food and lots of tour ... Read review

I've been to a few aquariums in my time, never the first thing on my itinerary but I often end up in them. There's one in Osaka (Japan) that I think is the best I have been in yet, but you know what? It doesn't have Beluga whales. Officially Canada's ... Read review

I am visiting Vancouver for four days in May with my wife and two other friends. We were looking to book a reasonably priced hotel in the Downtown area for four days between visiting Seattle and moving on to the Rockies. At first sight, this seems a ... Read review

Sorry for the rating but despite your disclaimer of only writing about the hotel booking I would have preferred to read about this once you'd completed the trip. Let me know when you update (after your return) and I will hope fully return, re-read and uprate. While booking process is important, who know what can happen between now and when you get there, for all we know they could close down. by Tempus_Fugit

Advantages: Amazing location, modern hotel rooms with fridge, microwave, kettle etc. Floor to ceiling windows with stunning views!
Disadvantages: no bath!

Club intrawest is on the 28,29 and 30th floors of the Sheraton Wall Centre hotel (North Tower), in downtown Vancouver, close to pretty much everything; we travelled everywhere on foot the whole time we were there. The hotel was about a block away from Rob ... Read review

Hi, happy to re-rate. moogi by moogi48

Welcome to Ciao. This seems to me to be a pretty good first review - probably on the margins of Very Helpful and Helpful, but I've given VH the benefit of the doubt. I'm puzzled by the first two ratings. Perhaps you've revised and improved this since they were given. If so you could go back to the people concerned (click on their blue underlined names, then on their Guestbook tabs) and let them know in case they would want to uprate. Hope you enjoy the site.

Advantages: great 1 bed suites, easy access to town centre
Disadvantages: dingy parking area next door, pool area quite basic

We were upgraded to a suite on arrival and enjoyed our stay at this hotel. There was a nice sitting room area and small kitchenette, bathroom was slightly on the basic side and the windows in the bedroom were not double glazed so could be noisy at times. ... Read review

About twenty to thirty minutes from Downtown Vancouver is Jericho Beach. On the south shore of English Bay Jericho is supposedly famous for an endless sandy strip and swimming beach. Well as an Australian I have different ideas of what a swimming beach ... Read review

Advantages: cute heritage area
Disadvantages: lots of tourist stores

Way back in the early days of Vancouver (I'm talking the late 1800's) before it was even Vancouver there was a mill on the shore of the Burrard Inlet. Aside from the mill there was not much else around and the owner of this mill didn't allow alcohol on t ... Read review

Advantages: Comfortable, good price, with cooking facilities
Disadvantages: Not as close to Robson shops as you might think

Stayed here for a couple of weeks in 2003. Was initially surprised as I expected it to be in the middle of the famous Robson street shopping area but it is in fact some 10 minutes walk east from there, on the corner of Hamilton and Robson. Not a big probl ... Read review

Advantages: Lively mix of retaurants, shops and history
Disadvantages: Can get busy at peak times in the summer

Any visitor to Vancouver should make time to see Gastown. It is easily reached, being a 5 minute walk east from Canada place and the Pan Pacific Hotel.No problem with traffic as all the crossings have pedestrian lights. A safe walk at any time but do not ... Read review
