There was a wedding going on at a facility across the street from the hotel. The music was loud. The staff moved us over to the other side, so that was nice. Otherwise an average hotel. A bit dated but no worse than some of the Fairmonts I’ve stayed at before. Not a terrible hotel, but I wouldn’t stay here again. Too much risk for noise with all the events going on around this hotel

Ok

The not so good: room was not cleaned very thoroughly (food under the table from previous guest); the lady at check in and check out was not friendly; hotel is in need of a bit of love (for example new shower curtains, desk chair had pieces missing out of it, etc); restaurant in the hotel made mistakes on all 3 of our breakfasts and we did not find it was good value for what you got. The good: we used a free night through hotels for this stay and very glad we did not pay the full price for it; staff at restaurant were friendly; location was super great for exploring Granville.

We loved the walkable area. Te aquabus just outside were a great way to explore Vancouver. The public market, shops and Vancouver Fish Co were outstanding. The GIH had a great bar and restaurant with outdoor seating. Friendly staff

Amazing hotel with various dining options and activities in the immediate vicinity. I drove onto the small island and they had a decent amount of designated parking in front of the hotel, for i think $20/day. The room was clean and comfortable. Everything is walkable, or a cute and short water taxi ride to other parts of Vancouver like Downtown, False Creek, etc. Excellent for a 1 night stay for anniversary, birthday or celebration. Granville Island is extremely busy in the summer so plan accordingly for arrival/departure/parking.
