Great location! With plenty of supermarkets and restaurants around, you’ll never go hungry. It’s also close to Stanley Park and the beach, making it perfect for walks. There are many bus stops nearby with various routes for traveling further out. The staff are incredibly friendly and eager to help. The facilities are decent, but the only issue is the very weak Wi-Fi.
This was my fiancé and I’s second stay at English bay hotel and I can’t say enough great things about it. The staff is very friendly and welcoming, we arrived a few minutes before check In and our room was ready so they let us check in. We stayed in room 327, which is a studio with two beds, fully equipped kitchen with everything you need. Room was very neat and clean with a comfy bed too. People say it’s old and can use a face lift but I was perfectly happy with the old style of the hotel, it added to its charm. They use actual keys to enter your room, not the cards that don’t always work. It’s was chilly everyday we ventured out so the hot coffee, tea and hot chocolate available to hotel guests was really nice. We had a great view of the bay and sunsets from our room, I love that you can open a window to let some fresh air in too. This hotel is in a great location, tons of places to eat with great food. Nathan’s pizza, legendary noodle and chicken world were my go to places to eat after exploring Vancouver all day. We did not try the restaurants the hotel sits on top of but it always smelled really good especially with always having my window open. If you are planning a week long vacation to Vancouver like me, I highly recommend staying in the English Bay Area at English bay hotel, there’s everything you need within walking distance. Thank you for having us again English bay hotel, we will definitely be back.
