Excellent hotel, great location near rail service and restaurants
Excellent hotel in a great location and convenient to rail service. The
staff were attentive and the room was very nice and quiet. Many dining
choices close to the hotel. Would definitely stay at this hotel again.

Not downtown but maybe better, close enough.
Good value, good location in terms of proximity to things in general and
the new train line. Parking a bit expensive but that is true of the
whole city. Sadly the bar and restaurant ’Fig" has shuttered but Cambie
street has come alive now that the train construction has been finished.

will try it again
We travelled by train and arrived in Vancouver around 10 am. We were
accommodated to check in even before lunch with no extra cost. The hotel
is located in downtown and many of the attractions were easily
accessible. When I was ranking this place, I had the cost per night in
my mind.

Stay was good for an overnight before flying out the next morning. Easy
directions to the airport. Room was clean and had balcony for photos of
sunset. Grocery store with pharmacy across the street. Only problem
during our stay was that they were having major problems with the
elevators and had to shut one of the two down for the night.

The only thing going for this hotel is the location. The staff seem
friendly however here are the issues: ice has to be hand delivered to
your room, there are two very slow elevators with housekeeping employees
using with guests. The rooms need makeover- carpet, paint, etc and
bathrooms are tiny. I am sure at one time this was a great hotel but has
outlived itself. Also our tour group had breakfast three mornings in the
hotel in a conference room and the food was awful. Worst of our trip.
Went across the street to the White Spot for breakfast.

I found the hotel to be clean, but in need of updating.
Rooms could use a little sound proofing if possible. I stayed for 2
nights - The first night the couple in the room right next to me (there
was only one room next to mine) argued loudly until about 1:30 a.m. SO
my sleep was not great, and every time someone closed their door it woke
me up. The second night the night staff delivered by bill around 3:30 am
- when they struggled to get the bill through the crack in the door it
made a lot of noise and woke me up, a suggestion would be to either slip
it under the door or find some other more quiet method of delivering the
bill.
Televisions were small and had some static.
Otherwise the beds were comfy, the staff were friendly, and the rates
reasonable. Including a continental breakfast in the cost of the stay
would be nice.

A stressful trip made easy by such friendly and accommodating staff. A
very pleasant room.

We selected this hotel because it is quite central but reasonably
priced. We paid a bit extra for an upper floor with a city and mountain
view and it was well worth it with beautiful different views every day
due to the changing weather. It is right on the subway line with easy
access to the airport and downtown, but also with lots of cafes and
shops in the vicinity. It is not fancy but very good quality. Great
value or money.

We had the opportunity to stay at this hotel for a one night stay in
Vancouver. It is centrally located (near the Vancouver General Hospital,
City Hall, and three blocks from the Canada Line train station to
downtown. There aren't alot of other accommodation options in this area
and this was definitely the most reasonable value.

I wasn't overly impressed by the way the check-in was handled but I
wasn't dissatisfied either. That sort of encapsulates our entire
experience at this hotel. The room was quite spacious with two queen
beds, a sitting area with two chairs, large balcony and big windows. It
was a bit hot in the room when we checked in since it was west facing
but the room cooled down by late evening and was quite comfortable for
sleeping. The room did come equipped with an air condition as well.
There was some traffic noise from the busy intersection on which this
hotel is located but it wasn't disruptive. I imagine the East and North
facing rooms are much louder. The beds were nice and firm (I often find
hotel beds too soft) and clean. The room has definately seen some
traffic and could do with an update but it was clean. All in all, I
wouldn't rush to come back or recommend this hotel, but it is reasonably
priced and did the job for us.

Overall I liked the property. It wasn't too expensive, it was located in
a decent area, and the room was huge with a little balcony. Yes, the
property is a bit older, but the linens were nice and the bed comfy!
Don't worry about the details. For example, I could see some water
damage in some wall soffit. and the tile in the bathroom needed a little
attention. But overall, the room was big with a nice desk..

I stayed at the Plaza 500 one night, arriving after 9pm and leaving at
6:30am because I was in Vancouver for a business meeting at the
Vancouver General Hospital. It was a perfect location for my needs. The
check-in was quick, as was check-out. The room was just right for my
needs...nothing to complain about, but not super fancy either. It was
just what I expected for the $119/night price. Cost was $24 for a cab
from the airport; I was able to catch the public transit train for $3.75
to get all the way back to the airport (quick, and cheap!) just two
blocks down Cambria.
