It has been a few years. Took our mom to Vancouver to celebrate her
birthday and we stayed here because of its convenient location. How
convenient? You can walk to all the major malls in 5-10 minutes, you
really can't beat that especially when 1) you don't want to drive and 2)
you only came here to eat. For what it's worth, my mom was happy with
the selection so we did well.
We got a suite with a sofabed in the living room. It also comes with a
round table and 4 chairs and a mini fridge - it works out perfectly.
The night of my mom's b-day, we even went downstairs to the lounge to
listen to some music and had a couple of drinks. It was so nice to see
my mom get into it - the Chinese duo was playing mostly mellow and older
songs that my mom recognized. Mom even had one drink, which she hasn't
for a long long time due to her diabetes. Our cocktails were pure sugar
water but seeing mom so happy - priceless! |

Looks like a modern hotel from the outside but more than a bit worn down
on the inside. Carpets, beds, and rooms could use a makeover but I think
they haven't gotten to it yet. The hotel is undergoing major renovation
and what is annoying is that you can hear the renovation in the middle
of the night. Jackhammers and drilling were heard at 3AM from our room!
Has an indoor pool which is a necessity for the Vancouver area and an
outstanding exercise room. They charge for use of computer.
Parking is a bit of a hassle. The lot in front of the hotel is minuscule
and they use the President Plaza parking structure above the third floor
about a block away for overflow (and the elevators don't always go up
there). This parking structure does not feel secure. Make sure you don't
leave valuables in car, even in the trunk.
A plus is nearby proximity of Yaohan Centre and Abrerdeen Centre within
easy walking distance. Those two places have outstanding food courts for
lunch and dinner. |

We stayed here 2 separate times. Both we needed travel to/from the
airport. The shuttle driver was very friendly and accommodating-taking
us to and from the south terminal as well.
The fitness room and pool are nice. The restaurant was a little pricey
but the food was good. Overall, everything felt clean.
It was too bad that it wasn't closer to downtown Vancouver-but we needed
it for closeness to the airport and that fit. |

Good place for an overnight stay close to airport. Nothing fancy but
very efficient and very friendly and room was very clean. In the end
that is all that counts in an airport hotel. Lots of shopping within
walking distance or a short drive. Some traffic problems in early AM
attempting to enter Vancouver and I would suggest making meetings for
later morning or early afternoon. Close friendly Airport hotel I would
stay again. |

Hotel room’s decor makes you feel comfortable and warm, but don’t forget
to bring your own tooth brush.
We stayed at this hotel on two separate visits to Richmond within one
week, but in different rooms. The first stay was pretty good as the room
was clean and the sleep number beds were fully functional (you can
select how soft/firm the mattress is). The second stay was not as nice
because one of the sleep number beds did not work. The hotel location is
wonderful. There is Aberdeen Centre, T&T Supermarket and Yaohan Centre
if you want some Asian food that’s walking distance. The Asian baked
goods are fantastic at Yaohan’s.

The free parking and the free wi-fi was a bonus, but the number beds are
not provided in all the rooms. The windows were dirty and it doesn’t
look that this is a priority of this hotel. I found that the hotel
location was perfect and it will even get better when the light rail
transit is operational. Please clean the windows.

I am very picky, but this hotel exceeded my expectations!
We returned from France on our trip and stayed here one night before
taking the ferry back to Victoria. Compared to all the crummy four star
hotels in France, this three and a half star kicked-butt! Stay here if
you want to be satisfied |

I stayed here with my Mom and sister to attend a wedding. The hotel fit
all our needs and we were very happy with the facilities and staff. The
only not-great experience was at the lobby bar, where we met some
friends on Saturday afternoon. We ordered coffee and it took forever to
get it. Furthermore, we got the bill that belonged to another table -
fortunately, my Mom reviewed it and caught the mistake - we only had
coffees and a juice, and had we not noticed (especially since we were
with friends and distracted), we would have ended up paying for much
more.
The only other thing I'd say is that it is great that they have rooms
with both a King and a Queen but if you really need this configuration,
make sure to call ahead of time and have them reserve one for you. We
were going to have one of these rooms but since we had a late arrival,
they were all gone and we ended up with 2 Queen beds instead. |
