Hotel at the Waldorf

While the hotel were ok overall.... the AC in the room was good and kept the room cool, the room was clean and the staff were all friendly. However, the window were older and thus not as sound proof as i would like. Also, the the mattress were thinner.

The description of the property was misleading, they claim to be 3 minutes walking distance to sea ports, inferring that they are near the cruise ports. In fact they are a 12 min or so drive from the cruise ports and 3 min walk from cargo ports. There is no elevator on the property. The hotel and bar / restaurant are outdated and in disrepair. The hotel is in a terrible part of town, we were not comfortable walking around in the daytime. A terrible disappointment.

Hotel is in a very sketchy part of town. Lots of homeless people and garbage everywhere. Not many eating places near the hotel but if you went over to Comnercial Street you had lots of choices and could experience little Italy. Hotel was very worn out. Linens were clean though and the bed although quite soft was comfortable. Would not stay there again.

This is a boutique hotel with 32 rooms with an excellent staff. All rooms are on 2nd floor and requires you to climb stairs to get to your room. Street noise and weekend live music can be disturbing. There are homeless people roaming streets. Close to several Vancouver attractions. Clean, convenient with restaurant and bar off lobby and transportation easy to access.

The area is not the best , it’s the older part of Vancouver. A lot of homeless in the area. The hotel does lock and you get buzzed in to enter and I saw a security guy at the door during our two night stay. The staff member Mia P. Was very friendly and helpful since it was our first time in Vancouver, and first time in Canada. She answered all my questions.The perks are the grocery store across the street called No frills , Dollarama across the street as well and a few blocks down there is an A&W that we tried. Just in case you need drinks or snacks. They call in a hotel but it’s more like an Inn. No elevator, had a weird smell to it , not really clean. Our room was down the haul at the end next to emergency exit that was open , idk why. Our door to our room was hard to open and close. The room looked clean and we needed help with the TV and AC unit. The water while showering is the worst! It’s either hot or cold, front desk clerk said let it run for 5-10min but that didn’t work. Also the shower looked grimy, they need to clean better. No phone to call front desk in the room . For the price of two nights it Needs a lot of work , deep cleaning and amenities to be called a hotel. Oh lastly there’s a bar next door so it was super loud one night and you can hear the music all night . So annoying ! I’m glad it was a quick stay.
