While the property is clean, it is VERY outdated. We were charged half a room rate for early check in to hold our bags since we had come in early from a cruise. Staff were not very accommodating. The street noise outside accompanied by the window a/c unit and old mattress makes it nearly impossible to sleep.

A good location, older hotel

I booked here because of the location, knowing it was a older hotel. The location could not have been better right across the street from the water. The room was a two bedroom apartment with plenty of space, but the furniture was all very old the front desk staff was friendly And accommodating, and the coffee in the morning was good many restaurants and good bars right around the area.

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.
