Great location on the waterfront

djwalms (Shrewsbury, United Kingdom) on Sep 24, 2026

Stayed 3 nights and can highly recommend. The staff are welcoming and helpful, great lobby bar atmosphere and a superb location to walk out into coal harbour or head to the granville island ferry. Rooms are a little dated but very clean and comfortable.

Chiara at H tasting Lounge is AMAZING

J_A_M0411 (Montgomery, Texas) on Sep 13, 2026

This hotel is amazing and worth every dollar! I will say the H Tasting Lounge Bar is amazing! The best selection in all of Vancouver even bourbon which is almost nonexistent anymore. The most amazing experience is Chiara! The absolute best bartender we have had in years possibly ever! Chiara always had a smile and a great recommendation along with yeah maybe not that. Every night was a treat to go down and hang with her and honestly it’s amazing restaurants around and Chiara will tell which ones to go to and the people there when you get there already know your coming! She is like the Vancouver Chamber of Commerce. We will only stay here and look forward to going back! Zach the manager is also awesome even took the time to send me an email! That’s class!

Lovely Little Gem in Vancouver

RunnerMike1977 (Seattle, Washington) on Sep 12, 2026

The Westin Bayshore in Vancouver is a wonderfully surprising hotel. It's hidden off in the Coal Harbour area and is one my favorite hotels in the city. Yes, the property is a bit dated with the older lobby decor and rooms, but it more than makes up for it with superior service and the incredible location. The bell/valet desk and reception are always incredibly friendly and helpful. The Marriott app chat is always answered immediately and requests are met with graciousness and every request is accommodated quickly. This is really appreciated, as some other Marriotts take forever to reply or don't complete the requests. The housekeepers are excellent - so friendly and the rooms are immaculate. Rooms are dated, but very comfortable, well-maintained and a good size. Food is hit-or-miss here - breakfast food is pretty solid, yet room service was not very good (and a bill of $200 for two). The hotel has a lovely pool area, with cozy areas to hang out and cedar saunas. The indoor pool and fitness center are excellent - very visually appealing and the water on offer is appreciated. The Westin's location is right on the bay front, with endless walking trails and easy access to Stanley Park. I've stayed here twice now and will definitely be back. This is a solid, well-run hotel, which shows that a hotel doesn't have to look fancy to be a top option for travelers.

Absolutely the best!

kim f (Colleyville, Texas) on Aug 24, 2026

Our grandson picked Vancouver for his high school graduation trip before he heads off to college. We had been three times previously and we were delighted to return. This was our first time at the Westin and we now wish we had stayed here every time because it is absolutely the best location, atmosphere, service, view! It's adjacent to Stanley Park and our grandson loves outdoor activities. The hotel offers free bikes/helmets for two hours-so off we went. The hotel surprised him at our last day lunch with a dessert decorated "Congratulations on your Graduation"-totally unexpected and much appreciated! Breakfast was always a treat-so much fresh fruit loaded on our oatmeal. Our rooms had a spectacular view of the marina, mountains, Stanley Park and the pool. We were within walking distance to the port area which made catching the free shuttle to Capilano Suspension Bridge convenient. It's an easy walk to the major high end shopping district and lots of gelato shops! It's also a quick taxi ride to other points of interest. The concierge was most helpful arranging a boat ride to the water falls. Our rooms were always cleaned and filled with fresh towels by the delightful woman who always greeted us with a friendly smile and "good morning" when we left for our days activities-even our grandson noted how nicely his room was cleaned up! She deserves a raise for cleaning up his room-we did leave a tip! Plus, there were several superb restaurants within a couple of blocks that we tried and loved! Marriott brands haven't always been my first choice, but this hotel and its staff have persuaded me to change my mind. However, I would strongly suggest that management figure out a way to add more chairs to the pool area. It's a very sparce amount based on number of guests visiting the pool. None were ever available when we went. Luckily, the pool bar truck made up for it! Loved the Sangria!

Not perfect but definitely solid

Iamjohnadams on Aug 16, 2026

The Westin Bayshore is a very nice hotel with a great location close to Stanley Park and other attractions. The rooms and decor are outdated, but still nice. The beds are SUPER comfortable. The water from the dispensers are not particularly cold. The laundry is outrageously expensive. Still a solid option though.
