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. However, my experience was overshadowed by unhelpful service regarding dietary needs and restrictions in dining options during my last nights. The price felt steep given the dining disruptions, but overall, I appreciated the suite’s comfort and space.

I had a fantastic stay at this boutique hotel located at one end of Granville Island. The location made it super easy to explore the markets and nearby shops. 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. The service was excellent; the staff was attentive and helpful, adding great value to my experience. Overall, it was a memorable stay, but some areas could use improvements.

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.
