http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Park_Inn_Suites_on_Broadway_Vancouver_BC/hid32439 TravelPost.com - Hotel reviews, information, and rates from thousands of websites http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Park_Inn_Suites_on_Broadway_Vancouver_BC/r636377 Our recent stay was for medical reasons and this hotel was chosen because of the convenient location and because a friend had recommended it to me. My husband booked the room over the internet and we thought the rate was good for the time of year. We found the staff very helpful and the rooms better than we had hoped for. The rooms are quite modern and the cleaning staff very detailed. We did upgrade to a view room for $ more because the view on the front is fabulous of the city, mountains and water. The back rooms look at a parking lot and buildings. We ate several meals in the restaurant and were very pleased with the food. We will definitely stay in the future! http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Park_Inn_Suites_on_Broadway_Vancouver_BC/r636377 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Park_Inn_Suites_on_Broadway_Vancouver_BC/r331294 This hotel is in a great location, walking distance from Granville Island, BC Place and lots of great restaurants along West Broadway. The hotel was renovated since our last stay a few years ago and the rooms are wonderful. It's especially nice to have a fridge & microwave in our room and a guest laundry room available for our use. Many of the same staff are still there and they really took care of us. But the best thing, what brought us back is the view of the city and mountains. Make sure you upgrade to the view rooms, it's not much extra and it's sooooo worth it. http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Park_Inn_Suites_on_Broadway_Vancouver_BC/r331294 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Park_Inn_Suites_on_Broadway_Vancouver_BC/r329056 We loved this hotel and the location. There were several very good restaurants within easy walking distance, and the restaurant IN the hotel was very good also! There's a 24 hr drugstore and a Tim Horton across the street. We enjoyed the view from our balcony. Loved Earl's restaurant and Banana Leaf. We were so glad we stayed here and not downtown. SteepsTea, across the street has delicious Chai Latte. http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Park_Inn_Suites_on_Broadway_Vancouver_BC/r329056 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Park_Inn_Suites_on_Broadway_Vancouver_BC/r636378 Upon entering the room, we noticed a strong smell of stale cigarettes with an overlay of unpleasant disinfectant. We complained at the front desk and were told that we got a smoking room with a view of an alley because we had reserved through online travel website. They reserved the worst rooms for online travel website. After paying an extra $10, we were placed in a room facing the city that smelled clean. http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Park_Inn_Suites_on_Broadway_Vancouver_BC/r636378 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Park_Inn_Suites_on_Broadway_Vancouver_BC/r636379 I had to take my child to the children's hospital and this being the closest hotel I thought I would stay here I will not do that again we did get to see bums eating out of the garbage can and the front desk staff were rude I asked the manager for directions and he rolled his eyes at me - I would not recomend this hotel to anyone!! http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Park_Inn_Suites_on_Broadway_Vancouver_BC/r636379 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Park_Inn_Suites_on_Broadway_Vancouver_BC/r327038 The restaurant in the hotel was VERY good, and there were a lot of restaurants within walking distance. Tim Horton across the street open 24 hrs, same with drug store across the street. Cold beer and wine store, part of the hotel, just a few doors down. Earl's and Banana Leaf restaurants nearby were great! The room was not very big, but we had a nice little balcony and sat our there all the time, watching people go by. We were so glad we stayed here and not downtown. http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Park_Inn_Suites_on_Broadway_Vancouver_BC/r327038 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Park_Inn_Suites_on_Broadway_Vancouver_BC/r326909 This hotel used to be a Ramada and recently changed to a new name of Park Plaza. While it states "downtown Vancouver", it's technically not downtown. The street that it is on - West Broadway - is considered a "second downtown" in Vancouver. It's recently renovated as well. The building faces West Broadway, mentioned above, which has some very busy traffic at all hours. This side also affords the best view of the city if you get a room that is high enough, although the back side is quieter. There's not much tourist-wise nearby the hotel, although downtown is easily accessible by bus or car. It's also not the most frequented area by tourists, so you may feel out of place. There are also some homeless people that hang out in this area. Lots of restaurants nearby though for breakfast, lunch and dinner. This hotel would be best for business travelers not looking for a tourist location. http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Park_Inn_Suites_on_Broadway_Vancouver_BC/r326909 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Park_Inn_Suites_on_Broadway_Vancouver_BC/r636380 This hotel is in a convenient location and has a fantastic view of the city, mountains and water. We chose the location because it was close to VGH but loved all the restaurants in the area and the walk to Granville Island. Staff were great, rooms are beautiful, would recommend this to anyone!!!! http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Park_Inn_Suites_on_Broadway_Vancouver_BC/r636380
