The Hyatt is a lovely hotel and very central to everything. We selected it because we had been to Whistler and the Hyatt was one of the places that the Whistler bus stopped at. Staff were helpful, but in our case the room was a real let down. We were on the 10th floor but the noise was unbelievable. it actually stopped us from sleeping .

We stayed at the St Regis before we went to Whistler and we preferred that so much more. At the Hyatt you had to pay for the internet and mineral water was $5 a bottle. These were complimentary at the St Regis. Also the breakfast was complimentary at the St Regis. so even though you could not fault staff and the location I was not left overly impressed- especially by the lack of real sound proofing. With the cost of the room, a good night's sleep should have been a given

After visiting Vancouver the previous year for a one day stop on a tour we decided we wanted to visit for a little longer. We had been in the Four Seasons previously but decided on the Hyatt. We upgraded to the junior suite, whilst expensive it was actually good value for the space we had. We didn't get off to a brilliant start with an 11 hour delay at Heathrow (Air Canada - not the weather). We arrived at 2.30am to a very chirpy check-in and a lovely bellman who was extremely helpful. Initially he only opened the 2nd room and I was slightly shocked to see only a sofa bed - made up really well and no sign of the balcony it was supposed to have. After a quick question he quickly apologized and let us in to the adjoining bedroom. Both rooms were huge and the bedroom had a great balcony with fantastic views (26th floor). The bathrooms were spotless and the bed was extremely comfortable. Having a suite was lovely, after a long day on foot I was able to chill in the 'living room' whilst my other half had a snooze. We spent ages on the balcony taking fantastic night shots.

Having the ipod radios was great as we had our ipods with us. The free coffee machines were good and there also tea. The mini bar was expensive but you would expect this from any higher end hotel. The only gripe was the water at 5 dollars a bottle - very expensive.
Cleaning was exceptionally good and any requests were responded to straight away.
The restaurant was great for breakfast and the staff very attentive - I love that they had an egg station so I could have omlette for brekkie. However breakfast was expensive - we found a couple of great cafe's serving lovely breakfast at a fraction of the price.
We had an evening meal there as well and it was ok but overly salty, I mentioned this to the waiter and he was extremely apologetic and offered a free dessert straight away.
Overall I could not fault this hotel, it's really well located for Robson Street (the main shopping road) and a very short walk to the Sea Bus and train station, along with the Harbour Centre and the revolving restaurant.

The Hyatt Regency Hotel Vancouver is located at a great location in downtown Vancouver. Not only is the hotel a great place to spend the night, but its location means you are within walking distance of many Vancouver attractions. It is a short walk to Canada Place, which is where I headed, and once there, you can walk along new seawall paths created by the City of Vancouver.

The hotel offers a relaxed atmosphere where you can enjoy the hustle and bustle of the city and then come home to sleep it off. This allows you to begin again the following day.

I enjoyed my stay at the Hyatt Regency and I believe any other visitor would as well. I recommend the Hyatt Regency the next time you are in Vancouver.

We are avid Hyatt fans and when we planned our trip to Vancouver, we knew that it would have to be at this hotel. The reviews were very good and the proximity to many attractions was highly desirable. We arrived at YVR and had arranged for a limo to transport us to the hotel. Once at the hotel, the doorman, concierge, front desk, and all the staff were wonderful. We were escorted to our room on the 17th floor and concierge spent roughly 15 minutes explaining local attractions to visit, things to do, dining options, etc. all with an upbeat attitude. Everyone in the hotel was always quick to assist at every turn.

There is a wonderful restaurant and bar in the hotel. A la carte breakfast items were very reasonably priced and a full breakfast was also available. In the evenings, the bar had a piano man and dancing... very nice. There were a variety of guests from doctors, convention guest, to family members of the band. The bar drinks were reasonably priced, and there was a separate area for those wishing to watch sports on the big screen. An added bonus is the close proximity to Canada Place (6 blocks), bus station (4 blocks), the new subway station (2 blocks), and various shopping/dining options within 1 block (Starbucks, McDonalds, etc.). I have absolutely nothing negative to say about our stay here. We will definitely be back!

My wife and I stayed here during the Christmas holidays as a break from all the family chaos. My wife and I are in our early 30's and have a 9 month old baby.

We found the Hyatt to be a beautiful hotel, very clean and well maintained. The room we had was a good-size with excellent amenities, including a soaker tub, huge comfortable bed, large LCD TV, and nice bath products. Most importantly, it is in the heart of the shopping district a mere block away from Robson Street. I is easy to walk just about anywhere downtown. The staff were friendly and helpful with our massive amounts of luggage and baby paraphernalia. They came up set up a crib in our room as well.

The only gripe I have and the reason this hotel didn't get 5 stars is the parking and fee for wireless internet. As one reviewer put it, the price for parking was exorbitant at $30 per night. Wi fi was $15 per night. In my opinion, when you pay to stay in a nice hotel, the fee should include these fees or at the very least offer the services at a considerable discount.

Overall, we really enjoyed our stay at the Hyatt Regency and would recommend it to anyone traveling for business or pleasure.

Stay at this property for three nights over the New Years period. Had a preferred view room on the 27th floor. Room was spotless, furnishings most modern and very comfortable. Mosaic Restaurant which is on site provides a great brunch and the hotels location is central to Robson Street and other city attractions. The staff were very courteous and most helpful, probably the best service I have experienced in any hotel. The only downsides was that the hot-tub was a little small for a hotel of this size, windows in the rooms did not open, although the A/C functioned well and parking is expensive. I would recommend this property to anyone who is travelling to Vancouver and will be back to the Vancouver Hyatt!!

We visited Vancouver for Xmas 2009. The hotel in itself is good , but there is a major issue of parking. the hotel does not have a parking garage or a parking lot. There is a public parking right below the hotel which is bit on an expensive side when you want to have a relaxing in and out of Parking vacation. SO for business travel where you travel by Taxi or train its fine, but if u need to pay so much extra for a couple of days vacation is a lot. Rest the location is right in downtown which is good and so is the great shopping around. Very close to Stanley park and North vancouver Capilano Bridge.

We stayed in the hotel on December 12 for my husband's work Christmas party. The hotel was full, hosting several Christmas functions that night. I was incredibly impressed with the service in this hotel. I have stayed at the Four Seasons, Westin Bayshore, and other lovely hotels in Vancouver but I've never seen such courteous and completely professional staff. The front desk staff was very friendly and helpful, despite being very busy. The event room was great and the catering was fantastic. Our room was gorgeous. We had a King bed balcony room on the 15th floor. I loved the modern yet comfortable room decor and the dark, slate bathroom. We heard very little noise despite the fact that the hotel was very full. I can not comment on the pool or fitness rooms since we did not look at or use them during our visit.

Only a couple of downsides... They forgot to remove one of the down pillows from the room. I knew I was having a strong allergic reaction but I didn't realize that it was one of the pillows until late at night. Also, I wasn't crazy about the toiletries. It was the first time EVER that I didn't use or take home the products offered because of the overly strong scent. However, these are not major issues. I would highly recommend this hotel for a romantic getaway, night on the town or business.

My partner and I stayed overnight at the Hyatt for my company's Christmas party. We had a room on the 17th floor with a view overlooking the downtown core. The room was clean, nicely decorated, and in a corner so we thought it'd be peaceful and quiet.
Unfortunately, I was awoken at 6 am by the loud sound of running water from an adjacent suite and the sound of either their TV or music blaring as well. After a late night Christmas party I had hoped to have a peaceful and lazy morning to start the next day!
What a shame as I enjoyed everything else about the hotel. Our Christmas party was a lot of fun, the meal was delicious and the service overall quite good!

The entire staff was so pleasant from start to finish. Their warm welcome set the tone for the 5 days we were there. The only slight problem was the concierge staff was not always available - but the clerks knowingly told us to ask the head bellmen (who had many years of experience!) The restaurant was hard to find (hidden upstairs, with poor signage). It was pricey but had a great 3-course special for $29 that was delish! The hotel management could do a little more PR for them to help dinner business? We were near transportation, shopping centers. Signed up for a hop on and off tour bus which was fine for first-timers like us. A 24-hour McD for budget snacks, with a small mall attached.
