The Sandman hotel is getting on a bit, late 70's design that needs some
new paint here and there. But a good location next to stadium, near
Chinatown and go for a good breakfast to Medina Cafe on Beatty Street
nearby (see separate review). Efficient hotel with parking and no frills
service. Two good bars. It works, value for money.

I stayed at the Sandman City Centre for approximately 50 days in October
and November and the stay was very comfortable. The staff treats you
very well and responds quickly to any needs. The restaurant and bar
staff are personable, efficient and friendly. The close proximity to all
downtown areas make this a great hotel location. I would certainly come
back and recommend this hotel to business travellers on long term stays
in Vancouver.

This hotel covered all the basics and was in a great location for
getting out and about from. Staff were very helpful and even upgraded
our room when they found out we were on our honeymoon. The
restaurant/bar down stairs provided delicious meals. Rooms were clean
with basic amenities and were tidied every day & it was quiet even with
what looked like a few junior cheerleading troupes staying there!

I stayed here twice and i will definitely be back, It has an excellent
location i walked everywhere, the shark bar at the hotel was a favorite
great food great atmosphere all sports on the big screen just awesome!!
easy to get to for international travelers, from the airport catch the
train to Vancouver central, when you come out to the street walk 4 or 5
blocks to the right and you are there and only $7 fantastic.
The hotel staff were great and helped me out with everything i needed,
very very happy.

We stayed here one nite, checked in quickly, had a reservation for a
queen, and they said they were not too busy and moved us into a room
with a King. Clean room, everything worked. Asked to be placed away from
the nite club, so we were not bothered by the noise, no problem doing
so. Didn't order from the hotel restaurants, per prior reviews, but in
downtown Vancouver, there are plenty of other choices. I have stayed
here before, the pricing was good, and would not hesitate to stay here
again.

Stayed here 2 nights in September 2011. Room on 11th floor so not
disturbed by noise from the Shark Bar. Room poor - absolutely no drawer
space so couldn't unpack properly. Carpet was wet at side of one of the
beds (leak from bathroom) - obviously not checked by maid service.
Reported and offered a room change without question. Ate at Moxie's
restaurant both nights - food and drink and service fine. Hotel lifts
are supposed to be key card secured but they aren't. Only 2 lifts
available which are inadequate for the number of people in the hotel so
you had a long wait every time you wanted to use one. Work had been done
on our floor by contractors and the mess left not cleaned up. Some noise
from other hotel guest in the early hours. Hotel location is fine for
easy walking to main shopping areas. Wouldn't stay here again. |
