The hotel

Living like a local is the ultimate way to experience any destination — and at Residence Inn Vancouver Downtown that’s just what you do. Your guestroom comes complete with its own kitchen or kitchenette, with a fridge, hob, and microwave to whip up simple holiday food. They’ll even bring the ingredients to you with their complimentary delivery service for groceries, or you could pop down to The Market for snacks. Of course, you’re on holiday, so you’ll need the odd night off — and this city pad’s downtown location makes that easy. You’ve got a world of dining choices a leisurely stroll away, from brew pubs and steakhouses to French and Malaysian restaurants. You can have mornings off too, with complimentary breakfast favourites at the Gatehouse buffet before you head out to explore, or to the hotel’s indoor pool to relax.

It is hard to fault this hotel, which was perfect for the needs of my family. Suite accommodation provides perfect flexibility for families, which more up-market hotels at the same price point just do not have. Location is good, with restaurants close by. One exceptional feature of this hotel is the standard of cleanliness, In fact, probably the best of any hotel I have stayed in. The complimentary breakfast was of good quality. The staff wete efficient and friendly and keen to make sure everything met our expectations. The one disappointing fact was that the swimming pool was out of order at short notice. Although this was disappointing, it did not detract from our stay and this hotel really does deserve its five score on TripAdvisor. Read less

Unfortunately, due to a medical emergency less than 24 hours prior to our planned stay we were unable to spend our week at this resort. However, I spoke with multiple staff members prior to our planned stay to get information about the resort and the area. Everyone was so kind and helpful. Every single person I spoke with on the phone was more than willing to provide any information to help me plan a successful trip. When I had to cancel our stay, the staff was so understanding and helped direct me on how to cancel as we had booked through a third party as a vacation package. They issued a refund without any issues. When we can rebook, we will definitely be staying at this resort!! Read less

Large room with all required furnishings for a long term stay. Staff friendly throughout stay and even welcomed me personally by name days after check in. The design in the room was slightly old and could be modernised in the future. The headboard on the bed was creaky and loose. TV could also be bigger and have more modern services considering… Read more
Large room with all required furnishings for a long term stay. Staff friendly throughout stay and even welcomed me personally by name days after check in. The design in the room was slightly old and could be modernised in the future. The headboard on the bed was creaky and loose. TV could also be bigger and have more modern services considering the property is aimed at long term stays. The room also wasn’t soundproofed and noise from the corridor/room above was easily heard numerous times. The location on the property is good for exploring downtown and the surrounding areas.

I found the Residence Inn on Tripadvisor while scrambling to make arrangements to get to and stay in Downtown Vancouver when my wife was Medivaced there for emergency surgery. It was a lucky find. When I told the staff I might need to extend my stay, and told them why, I was treated like family. They were helpful in many ways, and the combination of personal concern and professional competence made a difficult situation much easier to navigate, My studio room had two queen beds, and was extremely spacious. The kitchen, with full refrigerator and freezer and a two burner range, made it unnecessary for me to eat out, and the generous and varied included buffet breakfast meant I could get a quick start on the way to the hospital in the morning. The room was well set up to do business, with two phones, a spacious desk with electronic outlets, and a large safe. When my wife was released after surgery, the laminate floor and the open space were ideal for her to exercise using a walker. The bathroom was well-appointed, with ample towels and supplies. If you're looking for something that's more of a studio apartment than a simple hotel room, especially for a longer stay, the Residence Inn and its great staff would be hard to beat. Read less
