Most expensive hotel with the cheapest management

laenak (Hong Kong, China) on May 14, 2026

I went here hoping for a nice holiday with my family but everything was just nickle and dime. We booked the room with "free breakfast" but the hotel charged for coffee or hot foods. Everything was a battle. They charge little fees here and there and the customer service is beyond the worst I have ever seen. They make you feel like you coming to the hotel is a major inconvenience. For the price of this hotel, you should get A LOT more. Next time stay at the St Regis or the Mandarin Oriental. Its way cheaper and a million times better service. Plus the rooms were nothing special either.

Perfect Location & Friendly Helpful Staff

BrianT55 (Rayleigh, United Kingdom) on May 07, 2026

The Hotel is in the perfect location overlooking Coal Harbour & close to Stanley Park. The H2 Kitchen & Bar serves good quality food for both breakfast & dinner. Lastly all of the staff that we met were friendly & helpful.

Relaxing, picturesque stay

Ana T (New York City, New York) on May 06, 2026

Ours was a stay that perfectly balanced wellness with a front-row seat to Vancouver’s natural beauty. Westin Bayshore is a gem. The property sits right on the Coal Harbour Seawall, which is arguably the best "backyard" a hotel could have. Being able to step out the doors and immediately be on a path toward Stanley Park for a morning nature walk was the highlight of the stay. The views of the harbor and the mountains are restorative, making it easy to maintain a healthy, active routine even while traveling. The only glitch was that we weren’t allowed to use the pool after our checkout on the same day even though I’m an elite Marriott member and used to late checkout. The "wellness" focus of the Westin brand is very much alive here. • H Tasting Lounge: A must-visit for a sophisticated evening. The atmosphere is vibrant yet relaxing—perfect for winding down after a day of exploring. • H2 Kitchen & Bar: Great for a reliable, high-quality meal with plenty of options that don't feel like "heavy" hotel food. • T & Co Café: Excellent for a quick, high-protein grab-and-go before heading out for the day. We used a property credit to explore the dining onsite. The hotel serves as an ideal base for local excursions. We spent a day on a whale-watching tour, and the convenience of returning to such a tranquil room made the adventure even better. The Westin Bayshore is more than just a place to sleep; it’s a retreat. Whether you’re here for the fitness amenities, or simply the proximity to the water, it delivers a high-end, refreshing experience. I would return in a heartbeat for that Seawall access alone.

Right in the city, but so close to nature.

ChrystaC (Conception Bay South, Canada) on May 04, 2026

A lovely hotel that bridges the city and nature. Right next to Stanley park, the hotel is about a KM and a half to the closest metro stop, but the locution is still good. It's fun to watch the float planes come and go. Our room was on the corner and had a great view of the pool and a great balcony for quiet morning coffees. Bedding was nice and comfy. Nice restaurant and lovely little coffee shop on site too. Marriot branded hotels have the best coffee makers!

Great hotel, better service!

Maria T on Apr 27, 2026

This is a beautiful hotel with amazing views to the harbor and the mountains. We arrived to check in on Friday 4/24 at around 9:30 am after we disembarked our cruise ship; we checked in expecting that we were just going to store our luggage and come back later to receive our room keys but the front desk clerk went out of his way to find us an available room and he did! (I now regret not asking for his name). He was super friendly, super helpful and informative and we were able to go to our room immediately, talk about hospitality! I think this has been the best and most pleasant experience we’ve ever had checking in to a hotel! The room was large with great views and the bed was super comfortable. The hotel is located in a prime location easy to walk or bike to landmarks or quick uber or taxi ride if you’re not into walking. We are definitely staying here again when we come back to Vancouver.
