PROS
* Prime location...worth the price
* Room had 2 beds....HUGE. More then enough space
* Loved having a balcony that looked north to the mountains and east into the
city
* Outside the entrance was the stop for all the bus tours, providing easy access
* mini fridge, and hot water maker in room was a bonus
* Closet was massive
CONS
* Smallest bathroom ever
* Housekeeping may not show up until 3-5pm at night which had an impact on us
getting ready for dinner plans.
Guest Review of the Blue Horizon Hotel in Vancouver

We stayed in the Blue Horizon for four nights in June 2011. The location was
ideal - right in the middle of everything, only about 15 minutes walk from
Stanley Park. The room was lovely and very big - it had two double beds, no idea
why. We had paid extra for a delux room which is on the top few floors and were
on floor 26. I'm glad we did as the view was beautiful and the best part of the
hotel. We could hear some slight road noise so if you stayed on one of the lower
floors I imagine that might be a problem but didn't disturb us.
One problem we did have was that the hotel didn't have wifi. Their website and
the website that we booked from both advertised free internet connection and we
assumed that this meant wifi as with the vast majority of hotels these days.
When we got there and explained that we needed wifi for work reasons we were
merely told they didn't have wifi and to go to a coffee place. I later learnt
that there was a computer for guest use in the lobby which you had to pay to use
and given that it was important to us I thought they could have offered to allow
us to use this for free occasionally. That would have made our stay much easier
and made us far more satisfied for little cost to them.
That said the room was lovely and clean and the majority of staff were friendly.
I would just be sure not to book if you require wifi.
Room Tip: Book a deluxe room to get on the top floors.

We stayed here for one night prior to a cruise to Alaska. Hotel is in avery good
location on Robson street and within walking distance of all the shops and other
attractions of central Vancouver. Our room was huge and on the 16th. floor which
provided excellent views of the city. The staff were all extremely helpful and
the meals in the hotel were excellent. Beds were very big and extremely
comfortable, rooms also provided very comfy dressing gowns.
Transfer to Canada Place for the cruise ships was very easy by taxi and cost 10
dollars incl. tip for a taxi from outside the hotel to a drop off inside Canada
Place right next to the ship luggage handlers, couldn't be easier,
Would definitely recommend this hotel and would use it again.
