Granville Island Hotel
"Location was central and walkable for shopping and eating. Beautiful waterfront with parks within minutes. Balcony was small, but at least it had one you could enjoy fresh air with. The restaurant was overpriced for quality of food provided."

Radisson Blu Vancouver Airport Hotel & Marina
"Airport shuttle was convenient and quick. The breakfast buffet was cold. Cold eggs, cold bacon and cold sausage. Was overpriced as well. Would have been cheaper and better to just eat at the airport. Hotel room overlooks the parking lot, not the marina."
