This is pretty much like any other best Western. It's clean, simple with nothing
special. What makes this hotel awesome is the location. It is an easy walk to a
lot of really cool bars and nightclubs. The Best Western Chateau Granville is
situated close to downtown attractions. Excellent service. The
Rendez-Vous Restaurant
is quite nice, also. Good rates.

The Best Western Chateau Granville hotel is located in the part of downtown full
of nightclubs, bars, and restaurants. Not once did I not feel safe walking down
the street. The hotel itself is very nice. The suite that I had was very clean
and well appointed. Nice view of
Granville Street Entertainment District from my balcony on the 11th floor
too. I will definitely be back to Vancouver again soon and will be staying at
the Chateau Granville.

Yes, Granville street right around the Chateau Granville hotel , but it is an
easy walk to everywhere and the rooms are very nice. We always stay here when we
visit Vancouver because we can get a nice 2-room suite for under CAD$100 and
when travelling with a baby it is really really nice to be able to put him in
another room at night.

The Best Western Chateau Granville hotel is an older hotel.
However, the rooms were clean and had all the basic necessities. The onsite
restaurant had great breakfast with overly generous portions at reasonable
prices. Front desk staff were very helpful and efficient. The neighborhood is
slightly sketchy but very conveniently located within quick walking distance to
trendy Yaletown. Only complaint was that the room did not get warm enough and
the heating system was very loud. Recommend this as an economical hotel for
travelers who just want a clean and convenient place to crash at the end of the
day. Not suitable for a romantic getaway.

Originally booked hotel online but called a week before to see if it was pet
friendly. For 25.00 extra we got a pet friendly room and an upgrade to a suite.
Extremely conveniently located downtown and very affordable. Would definitely
book again!

There’s really nothing "chateau" about this place but it was serviceable. The
staff was friendly enough, but the room could do with some updating, as could
the hotel overall (fresh coat of paint, updated furniture, etc.). We stayed here
because it offered a room that had 2 double beds with a sofa bed, which allowed
for 3 people to each have their own sleeping space... but the sofa bed was
really quite horrible. Lumpy, crooked, sagging - it was better to fold it back
up and just sleep on the sofa. The free internet connection came in handy and
the overnight parking rate wasn’t as expensive as some others. The location
wasn’t bad, but there was some construction going on outside (winter of 2009),
which made entry in/out of the hotel a little annoying. Our stay was ok, but all
things considered, I’d try somewhere else next time I’m in town.

I love Vancouver and I will stay at this Hotel again, But only in the Main or
Hotel Tower. It is very convenient to shopping and the new rail train from the
airport, my friends were only blocks away and my favorite restaurants were real
close. If u book here, stay away from the court yard rooms, it is not attached
to the main hotel and its very depressing with no view and dull. Definitely have
breakfast in the hotel restaurant, Front desk gave coupons and it was very
good*****5stars
Take the rail train from the airport, it’s cheap and very easy 3.75 or a taxi
for 30.00dollars

The name, "Chateau Granville," may give you the impression that you are staying
at a luxury five-star hotel. Nope. This is a typical Best Western economy hotel.
The location and service during my visit was adequate and the adjoining
restaurant, "The Edge," offered a tasty dinner. My biggest complaint was being
assigned to the "courtyard" building. To get into the building, you have to
leave the lobby, cross a scary, poorly lit alley and then open a security door
into the courtyard. Ugh. If you get mugged in the ally, at least you are only
steps from your room. Secondly, my room had a strange emergency exit door that
was situated about two feet off of the floor and opened onto an enclosed fire
escape. Weird.

This hotel was in a good location. Didn’t like the room in the back of the
courtyard. Just like a dungeon and smelled musty. The front room with large
windows was much better. Would be better if the courtyard was connected to the
main lobby by some sort of tunnel. Staff were very helpful. Would be more
specific about room location next time. Would certainly consider staying there
again.
By all means take the Skytrain from the airport to downtown. It only takes 25
minutes. The subway stations are very clean and staff are very helpful.

This hotel offers two options: bigger rooms in the high rise, or smaller rooms
located in a nearby area called the '"courtyard." To enter the courtyard, you
must walk across an alley and pass through a heavy, solid, steel door that
resembles an entry to Cellblock "C". Surprise! There is a courtyard, and the
rooms there are small but impeccably clean and nicely decorated. Courtyard room
rates are a bargain considering you're in downtown Vancouver. But this area of
Vancouver on Granville is a bit on the seedy side. If porn shops rub you the
wrong way, this isn't the area for you. Less important, however, is this tidbit.
Despite our cheerful hello, the middle-aged man who worked the front desk that
rainy evening was aloof, avoided eye contact and spoke to us in curt, one word
responses. If front desk staff can't be cordial or polite, at least be civil -
or get out of the hospitality business. ......More
