These Vancouver Hotel reviews are the subjective opinion of a Guest and not of Allure
Hotels any concerns or request can be made at time of booking either

We stayed at the Century Plaza, along with two other couples, on May 18th. Our
rooms were on the 30th floor, very clean, with lovely views of the city. The
hotel employees provided excellent service. We enjoyed a lovely breakfast at the
hotel. I would definitely stay at this hotel again. Compared to other properties
in the same area, the cost of this hotel was very reasonable.

Hotel Location: Great. About a 10 min walk to the main street packed with shops, bars
and restaurants
Room: Good. Massive 'suite' room with 2 kingsized beds, lounge with sofas,
kitchen, large well fitted bathroom, tea & coffee, lots of storage. Clean and
comfortable but the decor was a little dated. Brilliant views over Vancouver
from the 11th floor.
Hotel: Impressive contemporary reception, modern lounge, great bar, nice
restaurant serving a decent breakfast. Well equipped spa and relaxing pool. We
didn't have time to check out the comedy club but would have liked to. Friendly
staff and faultless service.
Overall: Great Hotel Location, good facilities and impressively large rooms. Little
bit dated but excellent value for money. I would definitely stay there again and
recommend this hotel.

I wish I had checked out this site before booking the Century Plaza. My partner
and I stayed there for one week at the end of march. I am a native Vancouverite,
and remember this hotel from the 80`s. On arrival it would appear that they had
made extensive renovations. However, from what we experienced the renovations
were limited to the lobby only. When I booked online I was quite specific about
2 points. The room must be a smoking room and must be high up to have a good
view. Vancouver is a stunning city. When we arrived we found that the only
smoking floor is the 7th, the bottom of the 25 or so guest floors. The view was
of the parking lot and back alley. In the Hallway the paintwork and wallpaper
were severly worn. The rooms, while spacious were spartan. The bed was
completely uncomfortable, and the plumbing was a nightmare. If you turned on the
cold water in the kitchen you couldn`t speak over all the noise. We were awoken
each morning by the sound of the shower next door. The plumbing is seriously
outdated in this place. The shower was nice and strong but the curtain too short
and we subsequently flooded the bathroom several times.While we had a good rate,
we could have done better. This place is great if you are on a serious budget,
don`t expect much, and are a non smoker. Otherwise, unless you like being
treated as a sub-human avoid this place. On a final curious note my partner and
I both have crewcut hair, yet each day I found long dark hairs in the bath.

I booked a package that included the Executive suite, 2 tickets to Yuk Yuks, and
dinner at the Beyond Restaurant. I thought the service was terrible from the
moment we checked in, to the moment we checked out. The room was beautiful, and
had great views of Vancouver. My only complaint was there was never any hot
water, day or night. Dinner at the Beyond was also sub-par. We had a horrible
server, and the food served was completely different from what the menu items
stated. The only good part of our stay was the Yuk Yuks experience. That I can
definitley recommend, but stay at a different hotel, and just purchase the
tickets.

Hotel has upscale amenities like the spa, restaurant and lobby, however
rooms were moderately priced we booked an executive king which had
breakfast included the room was very large and the bowl sink in the
bathroom gave a contemporary feel. The best part of the hotel was the
way the staff treated you starting from the doorman to the maid who was
very obliging with extra coffee requests. Had a great stay and will be
back
