  • All areas were good but we got a room in the tower that was run down.
  • Grubby room old smelled not refurbished.

“The Westin is in the best location in Vancouver, but I was disappointed because they gave us one of the worst rooms.”

  • Location.
  • Inattentive front desk staff. Unacceptable.

“Great location with somewhat tired decor in the rooms, the Westin Bayshore is a three-star hotel with a four-star rating. Forget the inattentive staff since they already forgot you and concentrate on some of the best room views in the city. If you're looking for scenic views and don't mind worn out carpeting or inattentive staff, the Westin Bayshore is for you.”

  • Concierge were awesome, location was perfect.
  • Horrible construction going on, rooms too small, zero storage space in room for 2 people.

“I wanted a perfect getaway with my girlfriend. It was perfect but the hotel's condition was a complete disappointment. I was amazed that they let people stay on floors where major construction was going on. We could hear the hammers throughout the day and we were a couple floors up. Our first room had a broken bathroom door. We got a new room but the TV didn't work for two days. The storage for 2 people's luggage was minimal. The toilet if far too close to the shower. There is no privacy, it was a room for one person. It was extremely cramped, although nice furnishings. The food was far overpriced ($24 for a buffet breakfast?). We chose not to eat there at all. It did have nice gym facilities and was in a perfect location next to Stanley Park. Staff was great- from the front desk, to the doormen, to the concierge.”

  • The hotel upgraded us to a room with a great view, b/c it was our 1 year wedding anniversary.
  • I thought that the hotel was absolutely wonderful!

“The view from our room was amazing; we almost didn't want to leave to see the city. It was a great location, right by the entrance to Stanley Park and a short walk to the shops and restaurants.”

  • The staff was fantastic.
  • Bathrooms could be updated a bit. Seemed older with some mildew spots.

“Enjoyed our selves very much, wished we had stayed two days instead of one. It was our anniversary and the front girl, Julie, treated us very well. Would stay again.”

  • Convenient, nice amenities.
  • Small bathroom, small room,

“This hotel was rated as a 4 star hotel but with small rooms and bathrooms with just standard fixtures, this is only a 3+ star hotel.”

  • Very modern decor. Nice friendly staff. Clean and comfortable.
  • Kind of tuck away from the tourist attractions. Will need to drive to get to and from places.

“Nice hotel will definitely stay here again if we come back to Vancouver.”

  • May be the best hotel location in Vancouver.
  • Rooms in the old building are not four stars and are in need of rehabilitation.

“Everything but the old rooms still qualifies the Westin as a grand four star hotel. The rooms in the old building are scheduled to be redone before the 2010 winter Olympics. We did have an unfortunate event during our stay. Management had booked a noisy wedding party that kept the entire building awake until 12:15 a.m. On a Sunday. Management tried to make up for that fiasco by offering an array of free services to the guests that complained. I'd stay here again if I could get a tower room.”

  • It was conveniently located at the entrance to Stanley park.
  • Our room was neither a city nor harbor view room.

“I called to confirm our reservation and was told we would have a harbor view room. We checked into our room and had a view of a wall. I called down and was told that this was the city view, and that all the other rooms were taken. I was then told that I could pay for an upgrade the following day if I chose.”

  • The location was perfect in terms of proximity to parks, trails and entertainment.
  • The rooms did seem somewhat outdated. The bathroom was uncomfortably small and cramped.

“Overall the hotel is comfortable. The location of the Westin is prime for those wishing to be along the marina and/or parks and numerous walking/running trails. Very safe location. The rooms are comfortable with cushy down duvets. Access to an additional cot was not a problem and was in our room upon our request at check in. The only beef was that the bathroom was quite small and cramped but overall the hotel met all requirements.”

  • Great location, nice views.
  • Rooms are old, decor is outdated, beds are not luxury, needs a remodel.

“The Westin Bay shore is not a 4 star hotel, not anymore. It is in serious need of a facelift and redecorating. Wallpaper is peeling; decor in the rooms is straight out of 1980. Nice lobby spaces and pool, great location, but not a 4 star hotel.”

  • The beds are fabulous, luxurious linens, high quality mattress, spectacular view, double head shower.
  • Very busy concierge desk, we had to wait almost a half hour for help.

“I would recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a restful getaway. I felt totally spoiled, this hotel goes the extra mile for luxury and comfort and I would hope to stay at the Bay shore for my next visit to Vancouver”
