Victorian Hotel Vancouver


Recommended Posts

Hello

 

Curious if anyone has stayed here. Has decent reviews on trip advisor. We are doing one night in Vancouver and then catching the quick coach to Seattle for two nights. Being from Michigan I am absolutely stunned at hotel prices in Vancouver and Seattle is even worse.

 

Thank you for any feedback.

Located at Pender and Homer.... it's a few blocks away from general tourist locations. No I haven't stayed there.

What's your cruise date and your budget? Perhaps we can make some suggestions based on availability....

I've walked past it a few time to go to this sandwich place for lunch. That area feels a tad sketchy as there's a bit but not a tonne of foot traffic on that block. A block or two over and it's fairly busy. I've had no issues though.

 

As a plan B, have you considered staying outside the downtown core, like at the River Rock Hotel and Casino in Richmond, which is the municipality just south of Vancouver? If you're taking Quick Shuttle to Seattle, I think it's one of the stops along the way down. And River Rock is along the Canada Line metro. It's like a 20 minute ride into downtown.

Try searching the boards - I recall a couple of people staying in the Victoria last summer who enjoyed it, but if memory serves there are two distinct types of rooms due to the hotel having expanded into a new 'wing' a few years back. New rooms were nice & shiny, old ones not so much - so if there's a choice of standard/premium this is probably the difference.

 

Area is gentrifying, but you are v close to Sally Army shelter. Downstairs resto, Cinara, is superb - our go-to celebration dinner spot.

 

Personally I always suggest checking the YWCA Hotel for availability - it's a real hotel, not a hostel, and cheaper than any airport hotel let alone downtown ones. For any hotel reviews, frankly you are much better to check tripadvisor and similar - us real locals simply don't need to stay in hotels, so unless another visitor sees a post like this you won't really get the info you want...

We will be there 9/14. Trying to spend $250.00 or less. I think this is $229.00/night.
Looking at Booking.com for USD on that night for availability.... here's some hotels commonly discussed...

 

  • $124 Victorian Hotel
  • $147 Greenbrier Hotel
  • $149 Days Inn
  • $178 Rosedale on Robson
  • $186 Blue Horizon
  • $200 Holiday Inn Vancouver Downtown
  • $202 Coast Plaza
  • $244 Pinnacle Hotel Harbourfront
  • $256 Georgian Court
  • $256 Delta Suites
  • $268 Sutton Place
  • $295 Hampton Inn & Suites Vancouver Downtown

 

While the Victorian Hotel is affordable.... The Blue Horizon, Pinnacle and Delta Suites are my preferred choices.

 

Going further out by the airport....

  • $109 Sandman Vancouver Airport
  • $130 Sandman Signature Vancouver Airport
  • $132 Holiday Inn Express
  • $147 Four Points Sheraton
  • $155 Radisson Hotel Vancouver Airport » my fav hotel with the subway across the street!
