I stayed one night at the English Bay Hotel before heading out on a cruise, and it served its purpose well. The location is excellent—just 2 km from the Canada Place Cruise Terminal, which made for an easy walk with luggage. While the hotel isn’t modern or recently renovated, it offers a full kitchen in the room, which was perfect for preparing a quick meal. The surrounding area is lively, with plenty of restaurants and a grocery store nearby, making it easy to stock up or dine out. The beds were okay—not luxurious, but comfortable enough for a short stay. If you're looking for a budget-friendly, no-frills option with a kitchen in downtown Vancouver, this is a solid choice. Just don’t expect anything fancy.

We liked the area that the hotel is in but the hotel itself could use some sprucing up. It smelled when you walked in and when you got in the elevator. The carpets in the hallways are filthy and they smell of mildew. The room is nice when you walk in but when the cleaning staff come and clean, all they do is make the bed, take the trash and change the towels. There is no cleaning of the sink and bathtub and they don't vacuum either. Needless to say, we were disappointed with the hotel itself, but the location was great.

It’s a dated building but was exactly what we needed for a concert trip. A place to lay your head. It felt safe and did what it was meant to.

Great location BUT the place is very dated! The beds were good, we brought our own pillows and a blanket so we didn’t have to touch the top bed spreads. The chairs in the room were very beaten and tattered and there was an extremely strong smell of cleaning products or bleach when we walked in. We opened all the windows turned on both ac units and all the fans. Honestly the stay was good, streets a bit busy so rooms not quiet. The worst part was the parking, there is a small under ground parking lot for small vehicles which we couldn’t fit in so had to park across the street in a small lot which was full when we arrived so had to circle around the block a few times to wait for a spot. It was $35 to park for 24 hours.

Individuals who have travelled A LOT will LOVE the English Bay Hotel. It is an incredible bargain in an amazing location. The staff are friendly, flexible, and accommodating. My family loves the 1970’s vibe, and the beds are always very comfortable. Of course, the picky-nosed princesses of this world may want something a little more upscale. If you are a delicate little flower, perhaps you should pay double the price for a hotel in a much worse location. If you are a legitimate traveler, look no further than the English Bay Hotel when in Vancouver.

Great location in English Bay area. Lots of bars and restaurants in immediate vicinity. Rooms are large and have everything you need and are clean but are very dated and run down and in need of update. For the price, and in comparison to other very expensive accommodation options in the city, we were pleased with our stay.
