I had a wonderful stay on Granville Island with a beautiful view over False Creek and the nearby mountains. There's so much to do around, and the quaint shops make it an interesting experience. However, my room was a bit smaller than I expected, and the elevator had a few hiccups. Overall, I found the hotel to be a great choice, especially for artists and photographers like myself.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel with a stunning view and a clean, comfortable atmosphere. The location was perfect for exploring the local market, which I really enjoyed.

The price felt steep given the dining disruptions, but overall, I appreciated the suite’s comfort and space.

My room had a lovely view overlooking False Creek, which was definitely worth the extra cash, although it felt like it could use some updates.

I had an overall enjoyable experience at the hotel, especially during my visit with friends and the nearby shopping. However, the dinner menu could use more affordable options for those of us on fixed incomes. While the rooms were nice, the dining experience left something to be desired, especially given the high prices.
