Stayed one night with my fiancée and we completely loved it.
Room Tip: Get something with a balcony. Our Exec King had 2!

We stayed at the Shangri-La Hotel in late August. Vancouver is a very
beautiful city and this is a very nice place to stay. We would be happy
to return in the future.

Elegant, top class amenities and interior deco. Priced around CAD300 per
night, the hotel is worthy stay for business and holidays. It is about
25 minutes by cab from airport costing around CAD 30.
The bed is superbly comfortable with glass all round the room offering
nice view of the downtown concrete urban centre. All curtains are
mechanically controlled with press of buttons.
There are 2 small balconies for you to 'step out' of the room enjoying
cool autumn breeze during my stay.
Staff are very courteous and the ladies are dressed in Chinese
Cheongsam. Breakfast menu is very attractive and I liked in particular
the Healthy Package. Have you ever tried fried egg without yolk?
Although not located rich at the waterfront, the hotel is still within
comfortable walking distance from the Canada Place and the waterfront.
Robson Street is just around the corner for shopping pleasure. Do not
forget the Pacific Centre, a large departmental store. A sizable Apple
is found there.
Starbucks outlets are within walking distance on almost all corners of
downtown Vancouver. You should try the Ki Japanese Restaurant right
beside the hotel. Chinese restaurants named Kirin behind the hotel is
another good try. Cheaper Japanese cuisine could be found at the Oyshi
Restaurant besides the Kirin Chinese Restaurant.
The only setback is the fact that one has to check in at lower ground
and the size of the check-in lobby is not welcoming.

The Shangri-la chain is one of the best collection of city hotels in the
world. This one is no exception. The suite we had was beautifully
appointed, stocked with first-rate amenities, and very comfortable bed
and furniture. The Market Restaurant was a Michelin One Star, and was
well worthy of that rating. The service was up to the usual impeccable
standard of the chain. The only cavil is that the hotel is located on
the lower floors of the tallest building in Vancouver, and is very
difficult to access. The only vehicle entrance is through a parking
garage that is accessed via a street that is perpendicular to the street
of the hotel's address. Cab drivers consistently had difficulty finding
it. The entrance to the hotel through the parking garage is, to put it
mildly, less than dramatic.
The Shangri-la is an excellent choice for a business hotel in Vancouver,
but for truly personal service, I prefer the Wedgewood.
