Lovely character hotel in a great location so close to the beach and Stanley Park. Slightly longer but very easy walk to the little ferries that take you across to Kitsilano, the Maritime museum, Granville Island etc
We had a lovely breakfast in the restaurant overlooking the beach one morning.
Our only negative is that a day before our arrival we had requested a check in by 2.30pm as we were being collected by friends at 4.00pm. We were told they would do their best but could not guarantee it ( normal check in 3.00pm) - however our room was actually not given to us until 3.30pm which meant we had to delay our meeting with friends. This was disappointing
Apart from this, we enjoyed our stay and the great service from all the staff.
Not sure how comfortable guests would be without air conditioning mid summer but the evening temperatures were lower when we stayed so it was fine.
