    This hotel used to have a pool where you could do laps. No more. Very disappointing.

    Location is great, rooms are nice and we had a nice view. Staff were friendly.

    The food in the restaurant closer to the pool could be better. The other restaurant opposite the entrance was excellent.

    Breakfast very good, but not as good as the Westin Nova Scotian.

    can't complain

    Everything exceeded our first stay at Westin & our first trip to Vancouver BC. We will use Westin as our go to place to stay in the area. Such a great vantage point to so many things to see & do.

    The room was just ok...I've paid less for better. The food was a bit underwhelming.

    The servers at night at the lounge bar are very unfriendly.

    It was my 50th birthday and I wanted to feel the resort lifestyle. The weather was fantastic so the pool area, lounges and red chairs - with a pool bar really made me feel like I was somewhere tropical. I live in the Vancouver area so this was a staycation for my husband and I. We loved it. Our room had a beautiful view of the harbour.

    Bed pillows were too soft, prefer a pillow with some firmness. The shower is very impractical with only a half glass partition, allowing water to get the floor wet. The overhead shower valve makes it difficult to shower without getting hair wet. Hallways: noisy children in the hallway on our floor.

    Room was a generous size and clean. The bed was comfortable. The Marina view was outstanding, alone with beautiful sunsets. Most of the staff we interacted with was good. Nice lobby. Did not use pool so can’t comment on that.

    There are two restaurants and a coffee shop in the hotel. The coffee shop closes early and the larger restaurant also stop serving any food/drinks around 10 pm. So unless you booked a table at the smaller one, you are stuck with sitting in the lobby. The pool side food service was also very slow, in fact, we ended up walking away from the food truck after waiting for a menu for 15-20 mins.

    Westin’s location was perfect; walking distance from many of the attractions, great restaurants and Stanley Park.

    Our room. It was nice, but had odd features. It was very odd having the closet in the bathroom. The bed pillows are no good. When we were there, someone tried coming into the room to check our smoke detector. They had a key card and tried coming in , but my wife had the door lock on ! I asked the front desk about this and they said it was a contractor they hired. That was a terrible response. She did say she was sorry that happened . The room — the toilet seat did not fit the toilet. The plastic cheap seat should be changed out. Little things and attention to detail are important. The H tasting restaurant was a let down. The menu was so small. I was expecting more. The food was OK, nothing special. The prices are too high for what you’re getting. Thank You.

    This property is an excellent location, with a beautiful view. It’s a large clean facility with some nice amenities.

    Bars and restaurants. came in from a day tour and just wanted a drink in the bar. Told there was a 45 minute wait as I didn’t have a booking. Came down for breakfast and again told 30 to 40 minute wait. With a hotel of the size, it needs more space for bars and restaurants to eliminate waiting

    Fabulous location. Great large rooms with beautiful views.

    The first day we arrived there was a big conference on and when we went down to breakfast we were told there was at least a half an hour wait for a table, but we were initially part of a group which had organised tours departing at a certain time and so we didn't have time to wait for this. This meant trying to squeeze everyone in our group on to shared tables which meant the poor staff couldn't get around everyone properly and it was a very stressful experience. In this instance there was no where near enough tables to cater for the amount of guests. However, every day after this it was very quiet and breakfast was lovely and relaxed.

    Great location close to Stanley Park and the waterfront, had a nice view of the harbour and the city from our room. Was generally a nice quiet hotel with a good atmosphere and comfy clean rooms. Nice choice of food for breakfast.

    the parking lot charges 45 Canadian dollars per night. its an indigo parking space, too expensive. but I find the easy parking lot near the hotel, half the price, no roof,,, if you don't mind the bird's poopoo,check out this parking space.

    the location is good, the view is fantastic
