Guest Review of the Holiday Inn Vancouver Downtown |

June 21, 2011 The location is great, a hop, skip and jump away from restaurants and night spots. But that proximity to the party zone means it can get noisy in some rooms. I had this problem the first night, which kept me awake. I asked to be switched to a different room the next day, and that was much better, even though it was the night of Game 7. The staff are polite and friendly. Kudos to two in particular - Julia and Katie at the front desk. These girls have such a wonderful attitude, "can-do" attitude. When I told a male staff about the noisy room and asked for a change, he said he would tell the night auditor, and added that I would have the problem in any room that night because of Game 7. When I mentioned it a little later to Julia, she immediately made arrangements to switch rooms and have my things moved. Katie, who checked me in, saw me look at some maps on the stand, and immediately produced a much better one, asked me what I was interested in, and gave very detailed directions, and suggested places that she thought I would like. I hope the management realize what an asset these girls are to the hotel. If not for them, I would have given this place three stars overall. Guest Review of the Holiday Inn Vancouver Downtown June 14, 2011 The service at this hotel is fantastic! Nice, informative, quick. We especially likes Candy in the hotel cafe. The location, as far as getting to everything, is great also...never took our car out of the garage. HOWEVER...our room was on the back side, which looked over a filthy alley and the back side if two dive bars. Even though we were on the 5th floor, we could hear all the "colorful" conversations, watch the men use the "outdoor facilities" and hear the bottles being dumped into the bins (several times a night). One street over is a street with a very loud night life. Things really don't start getting quiet until past 3:30 AM! If you plan on staying here, see if you can stay on a quiet side, if they have one. Weekdays may be quieter as well, but who knows. Guest Review of the Holiday Inn Vancouver Downtown June 11, 2011 I stayed for 5 nights from June 5, to June 10, 2011. I could not believe how noisy it was. I showed up because i could not stay at the Sheraton Wall Centre for 5 days, only 4 of the 5 days were open so i gave the Downtown Holiday Inn a show. I got fast check in service. But when i got to the room, it was hald the size of a Sheraton room... The bathroom was small, and the sink was near the closet. But i had a 2 double beds that i am use too. But what grossed me out was the view. I swear there was a hoarder across the way that was storing their world on the roof of a business. Plus there is a couple bars/restaurants and people are out back smoking cigarettes in the late evening to 2am. What was really annoying was that i thought i was going to pay $140 a night.... as i had a pamphlet that said a $140 a night that was given to my company on late may. So when my room came to only $144/nite using my BCAA, So I wonder if i got the business rate - would i have gotten a better room? I like the location but i was not a fan of the parking, and internet. Internet times out alot, and parking was really tight. Plus i would have liked Valet parking. So it was disheartening for me to see i was 2 blocks from Sheraton Wall Centre. What was sick to see was a old dude walking around in his under-wear outside the hotel.... and then being arrested by Vancouver PD.
