My husband and I had had 6 nights staying at the English Bay Hotel after our cruise disembarked in Vancouver. As others have already mentioned, the foyer is underwhelming and doesn't look very welcoming. However, does a fancy spacious lobby make for a good stay? Not in our case. Our room (225) was spacious and on the second floor. It... More

We needed a suite for 3 adults and a teen while spending 3 days in Vancouver. When we arrived at the English Bay Inn I was a little put off by the blandness of the lobby and room but quickly changed my mind when we opened the curtains in our corner suite Room 323 for the amazing view of English...

Loved the location. The hotel isn't luxureus, but to spend your holiday basically on the English Bay Beach for that money is amazing. The staff was really helpful when we wanted to come back, after a bad experience elsewhere in Vancouver. I definitely will be coming back, when I'm in Vancouver again.

I stayed at the English Bay Hotel in September, and found it to be clean, safe & quiet. My room faced the street with a view of English Bay. It could use a fresh coat of paint & some new curtains, but it was perfect for my needs. The bed was comfy with lots of soft pillows & warm blankets.... More

We have to sit around the nearby coffee shop till we checked in at 10.30hr.The first impression when you get out from the... More

This hotel is in a great location and really handy having a kitchen and fridge, meaning you don't have to eat out every meal. It was pretty quiet even friday and sat night but our room was not facing out onto the street. Basic but clean. A lot of other hotels in this price bracket seem to have shared bathrooms... More

If you are looking for fancy loby, spa etc..this hotel is not for you. If you're looking for large rooms, older but very clean, including kitchen, in great location - go to this hotel, PROVIDED you can get aroom that is NOT facing the busy/noisy Denman Street.

There was a dead mouse on the bed. Neighbourhood is great. The hotel staff were friendly and understanding. But the room was terrible and there was a dead mouse on the bed. I managed to squeeze the rental car down the insanely tight and steep driveway into the garage. I went up the elevator, along the ugly hallway (I could... More

I spent 11 nights at the English Bay Hotel, and was attending a meeting at the Convention Center downtown for most of the time. The Hotel was everything I needed, and I appreciated the location close to English Bay Beach and Stanley Park, the close shopping and bus stops. Many days I walked to and/or from the Convention Center (25-30... More
