Friendly Staff and Excellent Location
Large Comfortable Rooms with Kitchenettes
9.3
My stay at the English Bay Hotel was very enjoyable. The rooms are large and the hotel is kept very clean. The bed was very comfortable - soft, but not too soft. The staff are very helpful. The wireless service in the room was reliable and convenient; there is also a computer available in the lobby if you don't have your laptop with you - and there is a complimentary coffee and tea machine for guests. The rooms have small moveable heaters to take the chill off if you are from a dry climate and not used to being close to the bay.

Great Location and Kitchenettes
9.3
This is an apartment-style hotel with large, clean rooms with separate kitchens. The staff are very helpful and courteous. There is a small lobby with large windows facing the street so is very convenient for waiting for taxis. There is complimentary coffee (and hot chocolate)in the lobby for guests so you can have a hot drink while you are waiting. The area is great for shopping.
Restaurant Tip:
There are plenty of reasonably priced restaurants in the area, sit down or take away. There are also a lot of coffee shops, market shops and grocery stores.

Excellent Location with Friendly Helpful Staff
Very clean with large rooms, kitchenettes
9.3
I really enjoyed my stay at this apartment-style hotel. The rooms are a good size. The kitchens are separate from the bedrooms and have a full size fridge, stove and oven, microwave, coffee maker - and coffee is provided. The staff are helpful and very courteous - when the bulb popped in the kitchen, they had it fixed in no time. There are market and grocery stores in the immediate area, so it's not difficult to be self-sufficient. However, if you don't feel like cooking there are plenty of reasonably-priced restaurants around. English Bay is just across the road. Wireless internet service was very good. I would definitely stay here again.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip:
Use the TransLink website (search Vancouver transportation) to plan travelling around Vancouver. The SkyTrain comes right to the airport. The website will give you times, prices and even a map of your itinerary.

Great Location
Proximity to transport, restaurants and attractions
8.3
I am happy with my stay at English Bay Hotel. It's a short taxi ride from Greyhound Bus station at Grand Central in Vancouver. The hotel, though a bit old, is clean and roomy and the kitchen is well equipped. Public transport is right at the door and so many restaurants nearby. It so closes to English bay and Stanley Park. People at the reception are very friendly and helpful specially Eric. Housekeeping staff are also very friendly and efficient.
Restaurant Tip:
Plenty of restaurants nearby. We ate at Pho Vietnamese restaurants and the meals are very nice and reasonable. Christa, the owner's daughter is very friendly and pretty. It's family owned and meals are delicious.

Great value considering the alternatives
8.3
although the hotel is a little worn, the room i had was very nice... clean, comfortable, well-equipped, and surprisingly quiet considering its location, a minutes walk from english bay, and close to many restaurants, shopping, etc.
i recommend this hotel to anyone who wants a downtown location.
Restaurant Tip:
The hotel is a short walk to Robson Street, where you will find many great ethnic and western restaurants, as well as shopping.
