Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I had a very brief stay over the weekend in Vancouver and picked the Auld Dublin Guest house for it’s proximity to where I needed to be. I don’t often do B&B’s but after this experience I will be sure to try them again. The house is very well located near Oak and 19W street in Kitsilano. Close to all the Granville Street restaurants and relatively close to UBC. The home is a lovely old place with a beautiful garden. The room that I got had an ensuite. The Bathroom was pretty small but the room was very comfortable. A nice view of the garden was also lovely. The owner, Helen, is very helpful and friendly. She gave me great ideas on where to eat and drink on my short visit to Vancouver. Unfortunately I didn’t get the chance to try her amazing breakfast but I hear it’s great! Next time. I will definitely stay at the Auld Dublin guest house again without any hesitation!

The lockable room with ensuite was charmingly furnished and very comfortable. Helen was very welcoming and happy to provide any local information. Breakfast was included in the price and was delicious. There was a lounge room for the guests and a garden area as well. Public transport was convenient and easy to catch and local shops were in easy walking distance.

We have stayed in B&Bs many times, probably our preferred type of lodging. From the first time we contacted our host we felt like we were going to visit old friends. The house is on a quiet street in a nice residential neighborhood. Our room is comfortable although the bathroom is tiny (Victorian standard) it is functional. We slept very well and awoke to enjoy a delicious home cooked breakfast along with some excellent coffee and tea. Our host is extremely gracious and goes out of her way to make us feel at home. Would highly recommend Auld Dublin if you are looking for a nice place in the Vancouver area.

Helen is a warm and friendly hostess, very attentive to our needs but in no way intrusive. Accommodation is of a high standard as is the comfort level. With a bus around the corner, access to the downtown is easy. I would have no hesitation in recommending a stay.

Thank you Helen for such warm hospitality, you're the best. My sister and I spent two nights at the Auld Dublin so we could catch the Bruno Mars concert. This adorable little treasure is so close to everything we could hope for. Comfy bed, good breakfast and a warm, kind hearted and helpful hostess.

After careful research I booked The Auld Dublin Guest House, which is on the outskirts of the city and a fairly direct route from the airport. Our incoming plan was delayed and so after picking up the car we arrived very late in the evening. Helen gave us a very warm welcome and was the perfect hostess during our two night stay with her.

My wife and I stayed in Vancouver for a weekend and we stayed at the Auld Dublin Guest House. The owner was wonderful and gracious. The room was spotless and the breakfast was excellent. It is located a 10 minute drive from down town Vancouver so it is well located in a quiet residential area. I highly recommend this as a place to stay and we will stay there again.

City B&Bs are lots of fun! Auld Dublin is four blocks from great restaurants. It's a beautiful 15 minute walk to the train station so leave you car at the B&B. The waterfront is easy to get to. The B&Bs host, Helen, is enthusiastic and caring.

Found the Auld Dublin after some careful searching for a nice place for a five-day stay in Vancouver. I can't imagine any better choice. The house is located in an upscale residential neighborhood just two doors down from Oak Street. The area is quiet, tho' on-street parking gets a little tight when the Jewish center across the street has a function. The house itself is, shall we say, mature--the floors and stairs creak a little, but it's quite solid and exquisite in decor, with wainscxotting and fine art prints. The traveler should know that you must climb stairs here--there's a flight up to the entrance, and another to the bedrooms. Also the rooms are a bit small and storage is limited--we were in the blue room, facing the street with a view of the mountains, and it was comfortable but, except for a chifforobe for hanging, there are only a few small drawers in the desk and a cabinet in the en-suite bath. Also note that the bedroom itself is in a dormer, and the roof over the bath makes the cieling there lower and partly slanted--the door to the bath is 6 feet tall (or is that Canadian, two meters?) and it was no hardship for me but any taller man will need to watch his head. I offer these observations for information only, not as criticism--I was entirely comfortable and deligfhted while staying here. The best part is the proprietor and hostess, Helen, whose pleasant Irish personality brightens the day. Every morning starts with breakfast, and you may opt for cold cereal if you prefer, but Helen is ready to make up a hot meal for you. She'll take requests but I fell in love with her standard one. Sit down to a bowl of fruit, diced melon and berries that she buys from a little grocer nearby who must get them fresh from local growers; also some juice and a carafe of fine coffee. In a few minutres Helen will bring a plate of excellent scrambled eggs distinguished with a little fresh chive, some tasty home fried potatoes, a half English muffin toasted, a portion of ham or bacon, and several button mushrooms sliced and sauteed precisely to the point of maximum flavor. More toast on request.It's two days later and I am still wanting that breakfast again! One more selling point: just a half-dozen blocks to the east is the commercial district of Cambie Street, and we suspect that we could spend the rest of our lives there and want for nothing--there are quite a few outstanding restaurants there along with just about any other type of shop you might need. If you're enjoying the parlor in the evening, Helen might join you for wine and conversation--another pleasant moment in the day. If we ever return to Vancouver, we'll want to stay here again!
