This hotel has the best location. With the beach across the street and tons of nearby restaurants, the area is so walkable. Staff is great if you need anything. The bar and restaurant is really convenient and we enjoyed the live music. The hotel decor and ambiance have old world charm with modern touches. While the rooms don’t have air conditioning, the windows open and there’s a fan.

Beautiful location right next to the bay and beach. Love that the hotel is dog friendly. Patio is nice for dining. Furnishings are a little dated and towels not the best quality. But bed was very comfortable. Love the ivy covered walls.

Hotel and location were great. Mixup on the reservation meant that I was charged double- once through a travel service and then directly through the hotel. The hotel would not refund the duplicate booking so I paid twice for one room. This was disappointing, in addition to being woken up in the middle of the night by a person screaming obscenities outside of my son’s room. Unfortunately, I would not stay here again.

This is not a modern hotel, and therein lies its charm. You get a real room key, not a piece of plastic. The Sylvia, true to its history, is ever warm and gracious, and the staff are calm, efficient, and attentive.

The one bedroom suite felt like a proper apartment. Spacious, comfy beds, nice set up in bathroom and things like the flatware dishes. Even the faucets all looked good quality. The partial view of Eng Bay was indeed a partial view and we did get to look out and see that without training our necks.

This heritage hotel has been modernized sensitively and sensibly. The location is conveniently close to Denman Avenue shops and eateries and Stanley Park walks. Staff are very helpful and friendly. The views over English Bay from the dining room are superb! Parking was available at a reasonable rate in an easily accessed coveted garage.
