Haney Vacations from ￥162,224

We stayed at the Burrard for one night, the lobby staff were helpful and quick at getting us checked in and settled. The area surrounding the hotel was unfortunately very noisy and the parking gate at the back led to an alleyway which usually had sleeping unhoused folks - they were never an issue, but I personally would not want to traverse that area alone. That being said, the parking structure seemed secure and we did not have any issues, though we did not keep any items in the vehicle overnight. The hotel had complimentary bicycles for us to use, which was very helpful because driving around Vancouver could be difficult. The bicycles were in varying condition but the staff were helpful in selecting ones that were most useful for us. On the second level of the hotel, there was a beautiful terrace in the centre of the square which regrettably, we didn't get to use much, but it would have been a terrific and quiet place to hang out if given more than one night to stay. The rooms themselves were retro-chic, but given the original 1950s architecture, they were small and lacked some amenities of more updated hotel styles. Notably, the bathroom/shower area were very tight. Overall, a comfortable stay with attentive staff. A cute hotel in a very accessible location of Vancouver.

We very much enjoyed our stay at the Pardox. All the staff were top-notch and friendly, which is so important and makes all the difference. It is downtown in a very safe area, also important. I did a walking tour that included some of the locations a bit closer to the water (10 minute walk), and frankly, I found several of those locales a bit sketchy. My only real gripe was the room setup. It was a beautiful large room, but most of the outlets were on the opposite side of the room from the two queen beds. They shared a central bedside table. behind which was only one double-outlet, taken up with their bedside lamp and alarm clock. On the lamp itself was a single outlet and two usb-A (yes, A not C) ports. Luckily, I had bought a mini power strip and so we could just get by. But come on Paradox, you're a high-end hotel, and you can literally get a $30 lamp from Amazon that would have had an outlet and 2-3 USB-C ports. It's these little details that matter, and frustrate your guests. It was my husband, myself, and 18 year old daughter. We all have phones and ipads/laptops, so accommodating this very standard setup is a must, it should not be a nice to have. Given how great the staff were, I'm confident when they see this review, they'll make this quick and cheap adjustment.

Walkable to public transportation, shops, restaurants and courteous staff. Beds were comfortable, bathroom was a little on the small side

Very competitively priced hotel with friendly staff. Very convenient location for various types of meals & transportation.

Spacious, fully equipped kitchen, beautifully decorated in a modern style. Excellent location in Yaletown, close to restaurants, the stadium, and the waterfront.
