Holiday Inn Vancouver Centre by IHG
Every staff member, both reception and cleaners always acknowledged me and said Hello and wished me a good night or day. Room was spotless. Keurig coffee could use some real cream but only a short walk to Blenz. Lovely view from upper levels.

Granville Island Hotel
The hotel is lovely and so convenient if you want to see an evening show and just stay the night. There is nothing like eating breakfast with a view of False Creek.

Great location, ambience, and service. The room is stunning! Complimentary drinks at the bar and Expedia VIP free valet and bottle of wine was just the icing on the cake. Turn down service was such a nice extra touch, everyone was so amazing for our stay! Thank you!!!
