Hi,


I'm just looking for personal recommendations for hotels in and around vancouver for a two week stay in January.

We'd like to stay downtown for a while and would also like to stay in North Van if possible, and be able to get public transport to the ski hills - Seymour / Grouse.

Thanks in advance...

We stayed here three years ago, and got a massive corner room at a really reasonable rate:

It is downtown and rooms were very clean and heaps of places to eat nearby.

Try the Sylvia Hotel for downtown.

We always used to stay at Lonsdale Quay Hotel nothing really special, just a special location; waterfront, close to stores/eats/drinks and right by Seabus for a downtown hop.

We stayed here and found it to be a very good location. Close to main shopping area (Robson Street) and art gallery.

Before we picked up the car we got the seabus to North Van and a bus from seabus terminal direct to Grouse Mountain - very easy, pleasant and quick journey.

Staff at hotel were great, good restaurant, pool, reasonable prices. Underground car parking.

We also stayed further downtown but it was a bit too far out without car (near Granville Island).

Lonsdale Quay Hotel is really handy for the ski bus too.

The new hotel will be a while in coming and is going to be expensive I should think.

Warmly,

I agree! We always stay here when we visit Vancouver from the island. Good rates, huge corner rooms (the higher floors have great views) and fab downtown location on Robson Street. It's also got a great restaurant in the lobby for eggs benedict ..yum!

I agree, the Blue Horizon is a very good, clean, friendly staff hotel, in the middle of everything....and most of all quiet. I stayed here several times and i would recommend it for sure.
