This is a fabulous guest house !

Nothing

The house is I beautiful old property right in the heart of downtown Vancouver. The staff are welcoming and very helpful.....nothing is too much trouble. We especially liked the free pantry where you could get hot and cold drinks, fruit and snacks at any time of the day or night, and the glass of sherry each evening was a fab touch. Our room was spacious and the bed was really comfy and the shower room was large and well fitted. We will definitely recommend O Canada House as the perfect place to stay.....it is easy to get public transport to the base of Grouse Mountain, and to the Capilano Bridge. If we xisit Xancouver again, we will definitely stay again.

The breakfast is amazing and the staff is very friendly. The most cozy place in Vancouver!

I liked everything. But there are few things that people might want to know before the book. There is no elevator in the house and you have to walk up stairs to get into the house, which can be challenging with heavy luggage. The breakfast is not a buffet but a pre ordered meal.

I am so glad I found this gem. This is one of the most memorable guesthouses I have stayed in. The atmosphere was very pleasant and felt more like a home than a guesthouse. The breakfast was so good, and the complementary snacks and drinks were great, especially if you are jet lagged and wake up very early. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I hope I can come back to Vancouver and stay there again one day and I am recommending this b&b to everyone.

Steps up to the door, with a heavy case……not many though!

To be returning to a fabulous place that almost feels like home, the staff are so welcoming. And of course the amazing, best beds in the world, and homemade goodies to nibble on in the middle of the night, after a long flight! The cleanliness is exceptional as is the gourmet breakfast. What not to love ?

I loved everything!

Hospitality. Good breakfast and pastries. Clean.

The carpet in our room was worn out and there is a gap at the top of the door. But this is to be expected in a heritage house where the overall charm outweighs the generic sterile atmosphere of a conventional hotel.

The property had a comfortable common room to relax in and enjoy the complimentary cold drinks, coffee and snacks. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The king size bed made for a great sleep.

location, room, staff are always great

I'd have to be petty to find any real fault

The staff are outstanding, the location is great and the Bed and Breakfast is lovely, walking into the downtown are or even to Gas town isn't an issue and it's even closer to some of the best shopping. Breakfast is great and the kitchen setup was great too. our stay in Vancouver was made better by being here and we will certainly be back

Every detail is perfectly thought through.

Not being there long enough!

Exceptional as always, a haven after a long flight, melt into the amazing bed, and spotlessly clean room, have a homemade nibble from the kitchen and then start your day with a delicious, fulfilling breakfast. The staff are gorgeous, ultra friendly and welcoming and they remembered us!!! The Penthouse Suite is just the best!! Thank you!

Walls were a bit thin so I can hear folks upstairs talking or playing music during quiet hours. Master suite is kitchen/living room adjacent so you also hear everyone in the morning having their breakfast.

Excellent location and phenomenal breakfast options to choose from. They even have snacks available and a shared minifridge if you have left over food.

It’s difficult to be critical as the service is outstanding and we adored our temporary home but the property is a little tired . It’s immaculately clean but the carpets are past there use by date.

The location was excellent - we walked everywhere . Chai and Ryan were outstanding - very helpful and obliging - 10/10. The open pantry was excellent - delicious cakes and the ability to have a cup of tea & coffee and snacks was a lovely surprise . We were even provided with a breakfast take away as we had an early departure time . The East room was lovely - everything you could need including robes and a spacious bathroom . Small fridge too.

Our door knob kept falling out of the door. Apart from that nothing!

I really enjoyed how the house felt. It was much like a family home! Really enjoyed the hospitality from the staff, everyone was easy to talk to and very informative/friendly.

Breakfast was excellent.

It felt strange going to the communal snack area to make an early morning cuppa in a robe.

Overall, the feel of the stay was as a house guest. It was a home from home. Furniture matched the heritage building. The beds were comfortable. Staff were friendly and kind and had done a great job decorating for Halloween.

The toilet was not an easy flush.

The breakfast was nice, although ordering the night before was confusing ! The building was really impressive.

Of course, it's old and guests should expect that - rooms have limited outlets etc and no temperature control)

Staff were phenomenal, home was charming, breakfasts were incredible.

Stayed in October 2023

It's time for some upgrades - paint color, brown rugs, some of the furnishings look a bit tired. My bedroom had poor lighting. My mattress was a little saggy and the pillows were kind of lumpy. No full length mirror. For the price, I expected some of these touches. Code locks on the rooms instead of keys would be convenient. I would have appreciated having someone greet me when I arrived (after 5, but not so far after, and there was a staffer in the kotchen working) and show me around.

Staff that did breakfast in the morning very nice and friendly and the breakfast was plentiful. Centrally located for getting all around on foot. Close to amenities. Safe, quiet and clean. Lovely to have tea, drinks. and homemade baked goods available at any time of day or night, and ROBES. People actually felt comfortable coming to breakfast in their pjs and robes -- so a homey vibe. All in all, a comfortable place for a single woman traveler. Nice lodgers from all over the world!

The shower stall was a little small and smelled a little musty. Nothing too bad, but could have been better. I realize that the property has been in busy use all season. The breakfasts were good, eggs cooked accurately to order, etc.; however, would have wished for a little more to take the breakfast to the next level. What was missing? Perhaps special homemade jams, no sourdough or corn bread (just white/wheat), etc. The whole breakfast choice had to be specified the night before, which helps keep down food waste, but then there were no pleasant culinary surprises.

Nice, quiet room on the back side. Enjoyed easy access to coffee/tea and to the cookies, cake and other goodies. Very much appreciated. Also liked coming back to the property on a rainy afternoon to enjoy a nice fire in the fireplace. Also enjoyed the breakfast room and visiting with our fellow travelers. Plus everything was in walking distance: Downtown restaurants, the cruise port, the small boat that takes you to Granville Island - - All are within 15 minutes on foot.

The room was spacious and the b&b was close to the city centre. The staff was very helpful and the breakfast was delicious.

Nothing! A word to the wise; This property is not suitable for small children. I was so glad there were no toddlers there when we were there.

Everything went well. We loved to just hang out on the property and enjoyed the feeling of being in the woods while right down town. The food was terrific : Keep your pastry chef. It is a beautiful building, both inside and out. The interior decor was appropriate for the architecture, and lovely as well. It was so quiet and comfortable. The staff was great and so kind to us. we realize that maintaining the house is a real challenge. Keep up the good work. You are doing so well.

No toothpaste, no ear buds (can sometimes hear footsteps, muffled voices, etc) but easily bought at the store. Have to also book your breakfast ahead of time but they are very accommodating.

Beautiful, comfortable, great breakfast, easy check in

Stayed in September 2023

It didn’t affect us during our stay as temperatures were comfortable but I could imagine without air conditioning in high season it could be very uncomfortable. Carpets are looking tired but I understand from chatting to one of the staff that both these things are looking to be addressed next year.

We loved the quaint building and comfortable furnishings of this beautiful place to stay in the heart of Vancouver.
