It’s is an older hotel still uses an old style key. But it was very clean and the staff was very friendly. A nice walkable part of town

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.

Fabulous old style hotel right on the water. Staff are friendly and helpful and beach view from the lounge is world class.

The Sylvia is a special hotel. Location is amazing, restaurant is great. Beautiful view of English Bay. Clean, lovely room.

Excellent hotel, great staff clean room just outside Stanley Park on English bay great for arriving on bicycles

Awesome location at English Bay. Have band playing on certain days of the week. Classic!

Great location!

Ideal location of this iconic hotel.

Fabulous place in a fabulous location

Staff were very helpful and friendly

This is a cute and comfortable place to stay for a reasonable price in a great area.

Breakfast in the restaurant was delicious and well presented. The room was very clean and has character due to the historical hotel. I stayed in the hotel when I was a child with my parents in the past.

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.

Cute, historical property. Rooms were vintage but clean. Staff was very friendly and helpful

Everything was lovely. Having a desk in the room would have been very helpful. The fridge kept going on and off, making sounds throughout the night. The location is fantastic as we love to walk along the sea wall. We will definitely come back yet again.

Great hotel with a lot of charm. Staff were helpful and location was great for walking and biking.

Location basically a hop and skip away from English Bay and the edge of Stanley Park is second to none. We love coming to this location and the food in the restaurant is top notch along with all the employees.

The Sylvia is an old hotel that has updated much without losing its charm. We enjoy staying here.
