Very unique setting in what used to be an Indigenous gallery. Wall art in the room was also very unique. Only 9 minute walk to Rogers Arena. We were on the 6th floor and wifi was spotty at best. Continental breakfast was definitely nothing to write home about.

This is such a beautiful place to stay! We loved loved loved our time here, the room was lovely, the staff were extremely nice and very accommodating, the decor is beautiful, and we loved the option of the sauna and smudge room. It was also amazing to eat breakfast (delicious bannock!) in the gorgeous art gallery. The only thing I wish was that the area felt safer at night, as a tourist it’s hard to know whether any of the local people milling around at night mean you any harm or not. However, the proximity to the water and to gastown really can’t be beat! Truly would come back and recommend in a heartbeat.

This hotel is absolutely gorgeous. Our room was stunning. Such incredible thought was put into decorating the room, as well as the public areas. I loved all of the art we could see. Lots of nice amenities in the room as well. There are loads of great restaurants in the area and it's a super easy walk to Rogers Center for a hockey game. The area seemed a little iffy when we checked in but we had no issues whatsoever. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Vancouver, and will definitely stay again if I'm back in the area.

The hotel was beautiful inside the rooms were clean, quiet, beautifully decorated. The FN art was very nice. The area around the hotel is sketchy at best but being in downtown Van east end that can of course be expected. What wasnt expected was that the Hotel overcharged me by $430 on top of the room fee for the night, which I called later the same day after checking out and it was hard to get someone to answer the phone. They apologized & promised I would be reimbursed, but charged my credit card the same amount once again. So at this point they had taken $862.84 from my card not including the price of the room which they had also taken off earlier for a total of 1180 dollars. Once again I had trouble getting someone on the phone and left a stern message which wasnt returned until Monday the 27th when my stay was friday the 24th of Nov. with checkout Saturday the 25th. Once again I was told I was being reimbursed this time for the full amount they had taken including the price of the room but that they would have to recharge the price of the room afterwards and so they immediately re-charged the room price of 318, so now the total of Money they were tying up of mine was at minimum $1500. Reimbursements eventually went through a full week later which I understand is how long such things can take but hat being said I feel like I should have been fully reimbursed for everything including the price of the room for the trouble they caused. Very stressful for me and unprofessional

Good location and comfortable
The staff were friendly and helpful. The he room was nice. The bed was very comfortable. The location was great for walking to many of the restaurants and attractions. The floor in our room was not very clean. I was happy that I had brought slippers…It wasn’t dirty, but seemed very dusty.
