The staff were absolute gems. The restaurant had great views and the food was a good value. Housekeeping brought us chocolates - their scheme worked because we'll be back. Next time we'll stay in a room that faces the water. If you're thinking of this hotel and you don't need modern top tier luxury but rather a clean and quaint room in a spectacular location? This is your hotel.

Great base for Granville Island weekend

Lovely hotel with restaurant overlooking a marina. Outstanding service and friendly staff. Charming rooms with nice views. Great base for a weekend to explore Granville Island; leave the car and go everywhere by foot. Highly recommend such a weekend as a break. Felt comfortable solo here.

This was the best stay we have ever had with our dogs. We felt our pets were welcome as apposed to some hotels where you feel like they are an inconvenience. The staff was amazing. Remembered and greeted you by your and your pets names. Dog treats at check in and any time you ran into a staff member they had a treat in their pocket. You didn't even realize you were in the city. So peaceful and quiet.

The Granville Hotel is the perfect spot to enjoy exploring the city - it was lovely to leave the car behind and explore the market and hops on the passengers ferries to enjoy other spots around False Creek.

Quiet, boutique-like hotel tucked into a small but beautiful green space right on the water’s edge in Granville Island. So much to do and see, all on foot if you choose, in this amazing part of the city. Endless food and coffee options!

Because it is on Granville Island and very close to live theatre it was a bit noisy until midnight but still a small price to pay for its proximity to live shows and tremendous shopping
