Nice Stay!
I was initially worried about staying at the Sandman Hotel Downtown Vancouver, because of prior, generally negative reviews. But I was pleasantly surprised when we arrived at the hotel. The decor is appropriate for the hotel style, the room we stayed in is very clean and all appliances are new and they work! The room is really small, though, i.e., you had to turn sideways to go from the bedroom area to the hallway leading to the bathroom, because the desk table was partly blocking that space. My husband had to muffle the air conditioner because it was making loud vibration noises. Hotel staff are wonderful, nice people and always accommodating. The Big Bus, which is one of the tour buses, stops at the Sandman, and the hotel location is the best! For the amount of money you pay, staying at the Sandman is one of the best values in town! Just make sure you don't spend most of your time in the hotel room. Oh - and the elevators! I also read somewhere that the elevators were slow - like a 20 minute wait. Not during our stay! In fact, the elevators worked quickly -as long as you got the handle on using your room key to operate those elevators. I thought the restaurant - Moxie's Grill - is good, but it's over rated. The food is "just ok." Others like it, but with what my husband and I ordered, it wasn't as good as we hoped it would be. My husband and I think we'd stay at the Sandman again, since Vancouver is just one of the best places to vacation anyway!
Nice Stay!
i never been to Vancouver until early Dec this year. I heavily rely on the review to select the hotel so I also wanna offer some opinion to those who are planning to visit Vancouver. Sandman is a bit far from the downtown area. I didn't want to go out at night becuz it takes a long walk to nearby shops. There is no free internet and no fridge in hotel room. The hotel room is tiny and dark.
Don't waste your money
Excellent location. Easy to walk to chinatown, gastown, and the aquabus to granville Island. The rooms are a little too small.
Good location, especially for sporting events. Walkable to most of downtown. Friendly staff. SLOW elevators!
The hotel had great amenities. Indoor heated pool, hot tub, a small but functional exercise room that had cardio equipment and a decent array of free weights and nautilus machines.The dining options were great, had a decent bar/niteclub, as well as two other dining places. The only drawback was my room was small and smelled of smoke.
Have very little positive to say except that it was a handy location. Staff were indifferent, rooms were dirty and often didn't get made up, our reservations were constantly mixed up - they kept trying to check us out days before our departure date, front staff was rude - there are so many good hotels in Vancouver - don't waste your money on this one!
