Blue Horizon Hotel was Awesome

I would stay here again in a heartbeat. it exceeded our expectations. yes, the elevators were slow but I was on vacation and slowing down was a good thing. We requested a west side room, were accommodated and recommended by staff that we be in room for the sunset around 8pm. it was spectacular, overlooking the English Bay. very large corner room with balcony. clean and comfortable. the bed was like sleeping in hugs. This hotel is in a major high fashion shopping district, lots of interesting store fronts and people to see. if you like shopping this is the spot but also in walking distance of everything we wanted to do. we rented bikes a few blocks down from the hotel and spent a day in Stanley Park riding along the seawall and taking in the beautiful views and weather. The price is very reasonable compared to other area hotels with higher prices and lower reviews. On our last day there we checked out at 11am but the staff stored our luggage while we visited the city all day prior to our night time flight. Great Hotel. I am pleased and looking forward to visiting again.

excellent stay

very nice room. clean and larger than i expected. photo on website does do it justice. we got a free upgrade. room had 180 degree view of city, bay and snow capped mountains. spectacular view. central location. the entire downtown within walking distance. staff was very helpful and able to answer our questions about the city. the is a small work out area consisting of lap pool, jacuzzi, sauna, 2 treadmills and a stationary bike. nothing great there but you can get a work out in. there is a restaurant on site. breakfast, our only meal there, was good. overall, an excellent experience. i would go back and recommend to friends.

Careful with the room safe!!

The hotel is good. Located in a very good place where you can easily walk around and find many things to do and see. The only thing is that I lost part of my money that was locked inside de room safe. Completely sure that I always kept it locked all the time, they couldn't do anything at all (even split the damage). Don't recommend.....be careful.

Great Views

We stayed at the Blue Horizon in downtown Vancouver. We chose it based on location and room rates ( a very reasonable weekend rate as compared to other hotels in the area). I also liked the idea of a balcony--fresh air in a hotel room is a bonus I can't pass up. The room was huge and the views spectacular. We could see the harbor and mist shrouded mountains, and cityscpes in three directions. The location was very good for shopping, walking and dining, and had the added convienence of the "hop on, hop off" tour bus/trolley stopping right outside the front door. The ticket is good for two days of travel to major tourist attractions. We would certainly stay at the Blue Horizon again.

This hotel has beautiful rooms in a great location. Our room had outstanding views. The rooms are well furnished and clean. The bedding was very comfortable. The rooms are cute. The lobby area is adequate but a bit borning. Overall this is a fantastic hotel especially when you consider the affordable price.
