Don't be put off by reception. The location is awesome. The rooms are clean. The bathrooms are near to newly renovated and kept exceptionally clean. I was expecting high levels of noise, but was pleasantly surprised given it is the centre of the city. For the money, it is great! I think room temperature could be a problem in the... More

A friend and I were traveling the West Coast, this hotel was a perfect start to the trip; great location with easy access to everything. Took us about 30 minutes to walk to Stanley Park. No en suite but really clean and well kept communal toilets.

What they don't tell you is that it is right next to a noisy bar so if you want to get some sleep early it isn't the place for you! Even with ear plugs I was kept up by the vibrations of the bass until 2am and I had to get up at 6am to run in a big road... More

I stayed at this hotel for 1.5 weeks when I moved to Vancouver and was looking for an apartment. The location is excellent, with loads of shops and restaurants within walking distance and located along a main transit route. The staff were all lovely people and very helpful. The price was very economical for a great place. It's nothing fancy,... More

We stayed here for 7 nights while visiting Vancouver as we were looking for budget accommodation. The location was great, within walking distance to some great cheap sushi places and a few minutes to the shopping area and waterfront. It also had a kitchen with hobs, microwave and kettle. The rooms were average, towels changed everyday and they had fridges... More

I was looking for some budget accomodation in downtown Vancouver. This is between hostel and cheap accom. No elevator, stairs needed a vacuum and there was no tea or coffee in room as website said there was. Very basic, bed comfortable enough and kitchen was fine, bathroom was at end of corridor and clean. I ended up moving to another... More

Not too sure what people are expecting for the price you pay in such a great location. The Ambassador Hotel, as it's now called, has everything you would expect. Yes, the bathroom is down the hall & shared, but thats very clear when you book online & is no problem anyway. Everything is clean & functional & the staff are... More

The name has been changed to the AMBASSADOR, but they still bill as the Granville Grand.

Approximately 12 rooms to a floor, mostly doubles, internet access, toilet at end of hall, shower and toilet adjacent, newly tiled and upgraded... More

Last year I spent about a week here after 15 days at the Victoria Marriott doing company training. My wife made the reservation (she thought I had already spent too much) and I was not disappointed. Great price benefit ratio, excellent location, super friendly and helpful hosts, excellent and very affordable laundry services, impeccable bathrooms. This year I plan to... More
