Guest Reviews Best Western Chateau Granville

true, if you stay in the courtyard you have to walk across the alley from the main building, but once you're inside the gate it's charming and 'old world-ish'.
friendly, efficient service. comfortable beds, large room, great view of the courtyard and uber-central to everything downtown,
my daughter and i will stay again.

For its price, this is a comfortable, clean well-located hotel within an easy walk of the Art Gallery, and all Downtown activities and shopping. The secure underground parking is a great asset. Our room was clean and large and staff were efficient. But this is not an up market hotel and does not pretend to be. Be aware that this part of Granville St is quite run down, although not in a disturbing way. Good easy walk to Denman St with its fine restaurants. Excellent value

This place looks awful from the outside and I can't really rate the inside as we were put in a separate building after checking in. They called it the 'Court Yard' but I would call it 'Down and Outs Hang-Out'. The actual room was small but ok. To get to it you had to walk down an unlit road to a heavy metal door where you swiped your room card and walked through to the 'Court Yard'. You then walked past what looked like a small apartment block where a security guard actually lived (there were plants etc on the window sill) and we saw the security guard when he let the door slam in our faces. Our small building was horrible, dirty carpet led up to our room, passing other rooms and we had to carry our suitcases up 2 or 3 flights of stairs. To be honest we didn't feel safe at all and the final straw was when we were stared at by 2 girls sitting outside our building door smoking weed - very welcoming! I wouldn't recommend this place for more than one night and parking is expensive. Definitely not for kids.

A great location on Granville St is the best feature of this tired-ish BW property. Despite being a loyal guest, my plea for late check out was firmly declined. The room was spacious, clean and well-equipped but a little dated. While we requested a quiet room, the ice maker was our friend all night long. The "free" WiFi demonstrated all the bandwidth of dial-up.

The hotel was great. We've stayed several times in the past and the staff are outstanding. Very helpful. The recently renovated restaurant was truly a surprise with very good deals on dinner. Great location as its downtown but not in the crazy hub of everything. Guestrooms were super clean and it was excellent to have a balcony to people watch from.

I and a few friends have student visas to work in Vancouver for one year so our plan was to stay in a hostel for a while before getting our bearings and finding an apartment/house. However, after a couple of nights there, we found that the Chateau Granville was actually cheaper when all 4 of us shared a room! We had the security of having our own keys, own bathroom, free internet and clean linen (a big plus). The room was actually three times the size we were used to. We stayed in the rooms across from the main hotel in the courtyard and while the alley way can be a bit daunting and I don't think I'd chance it alone by myself late at night, it is well lit and very close to a door which leads directly to the hotel. As for the area, there are a lot of homeless people and yes a 25c peepshow but that's just the area. We never had any trouble or felt intimidated. There's a good nightlife on Granville St. and the hotel is also very close to the skytrain, only 10 min walk so the location was perfect. The hotel itself was clean, and staff were very friendly. The restaurant downstairs was a little pricey but nice. We only had a problem one night in particular as there was a group of around 25 college kids who acted up in the hallways and kept a lot of people up. It was annoying as I don't think staff did enough to stop them and left them stay again for a further two nights. Appart from this, for us it was great, we stayed for over a month: cheaper than a hostel and more secure plus the location suited us down to the ground. We were sad to leave once we found a house

I've stayed in various properties for business trips within the Vancouver area, and rate this hotel as one of the best values. The rooms are exceptionally clean, and the staff are friendly and helpful.
The restaurant decor and menu is fantastic, and once they complete their entire renovation it will be an even better hotel for business or pleasure

Room was extremely clean. Staff was quick and prompt. The hallways need to be updated, but are otherwise clean. Elevators need some TLC, but are otherwise safe and clean. The Elevators have no 13th floor. Got a good deal with a 30 day advanced booking. Would stay there again for same deal or slightly more money.

This is pretty much like any other best Western. It's clean, simple with nothing special. What makes this hotel awesome is the location. It is an easy walk to a lot of really cool bars and nightclubs. The Best Western Chateau Granville is situated close to downtown attractions. Excellent service. The Rendez-Vous Restaurant is quite nice, also. Good rates.

The Best Western Chateau Granville hotel is located in the part of downtown full of nightclubs, bars, and restaurants. Not once did I not feel safe walking down the street. The hotel itself is very nice. The suite that I had was very clean and well appointed. Nice view of Granville Street Entertainment District from my balcony on the 11th floor too. I will definitely be back to Vancouver again soon and will be staying at the Chateau Granville.

Yes, Granville street right around the Chateau Granville hotel , but it is an easy walk to everywhere and the rooms are very nice. We always stay here when we visit Vancouver because we can get a nice 2-room suite for under CAD$100 and when travelling with a baby it is really really nice to be able to put him in another room at night.

The Best Western Chateau Granville hotel is an older hotel. However, the rooms were clean and had all the basic necessities. The onsite restaurant had great breakfast with overly generous portions at reasonable prices. Front desk staff were very helpful and efficient. The neighborhood is slightly sketchy but very conveniently located within quick walking distance to trendy Yaletown. Only complaint was that the room did not get warm enough and the heating system was very loud. Recommend this as an economical hotel for travelers who just want a clean and convenient place to crash at the end of the day. Not suitable for a romantic getaway.

Originally booked hotel online but called a week before to see if it was pet friendly. For 25.00 extra we got a pet friendly room and an upgrade to a suite. Extremely conveniently located downtown and very affordable. Would definitely book again!
