Guest Reviews of the Four Seasons Hotel Vancouver
June 20, 2011
This was a great hotel. It was clean and spacious and everything you would want
a business hotel to be like. It did, however, change my idea of a Four Seasons
hotels. Since this is only the second Four Seasons I have visited I don't know
much about their standards, but I can tell you the first one was a lot nicer
hotel overall. I don't think Four Seasons's Vancouver property provided the
personal attentions to its guests that hotels in its class should. For example,
the water was $7.50. When you're paying that much each night for a room you
expect it to include a little more and not just sleeping accommodations. I once
read a statement by a Four Seasons spokesman about why they don't have a rewards
program. He said their hotels 'ask what type of water their guests want instead
of simply just giving them free water.' In this sense the hotel fell short.

This is a great hotel and I was very impressed with the service. I have never
seen such friendly an helpful staff before. Even though it is a big hotel , the
people who worked there greeted me by the name always.
The rooms are luxurious and the hotel has a nice pool and restaurant. It is
located on top of the pacific mall , so its great for shopping. Its also about a
10min walk from the waterfront. The Canada line entrance is also right next to
the hotel.
The only problem with the hotel is, is that it does not have a see view, but I
guess the location makes up for that if you are there for business or shopping.

The hotel is centrally located with 2 skytrain stations under the hotel:
Granville & Van. Centre. You are only a short walk from everything (Robson,
waterfront, bars). Check-in/out were quick and easy. Our room was
checked/cleaned 2x a day. Free newspaper everyday. No complimentary water.
A couple of things annoyed me. The curtains don't cover all of the window,
leaving a slit of sunlight thru. Once the sun is out, you'll know it. When you
come back to the hotel, you can't access the elevators from the ground floor,
but have to go all the way back to the lobby. The lobby wasn't impressive, for a
5*.
When it's quiet, you can hear the skytrain, but that's the price of convenience.
The hotel's restaurant is very popular and has a good rep. (looked amazing).
Didn't try it but I would definitely dine there next time.
I would stay again.

This hotel feels like a 'normal' business hotel - think Intercon or Hyatt. You
choose a Four Seasons thinking it will be a cut above - but the Vancouver
property is not. Its not bad - just not special.
I spent three nights here in May and was in a good sized suite. It was
pleasantly decorated - though nothing special. Where the room really fell down
was the bathroom : really tiny, basic, very poor shower. Very disappointing.
The lobby and other common parts also are nothing special and nothing like any
other Four Seasons I have ever stayed at - which are always excellent and very
plush. Very much a no frills hotel
Service however, was of Four Seasons quality - very efficient, friendly and
capable. 100% score there.
Didnt eat at the hotel - so no comments there. Gym was good.
For future trips to Vancouver I would stay elsewhere and more surprisingly for
me - this stay has slightly eroded the Four Seasons brand in my mind - a brand
that I had assumed was the best in the business.
Room Tip: ask if they have rooms with renovated bathrooms |
