This is my second stay at the Howard Johnsons at the corner of Davie and Grenville in Vancouver and once again it met and exceeded expectations. Sure it is not a high end like the hotel here where I stayed on my last visit so no views and minimal lobby but in terms of location and comfort plus an unbeatable... more

For the money the hotel isn't bad, but don't expect much. The people working the front desk were not very friendly or helpful. The parking lot for the hotel was full when we checked in at 5pm. The person checking us in gave us no other options for parking, but we overheard another employee talking to another guest advise them... more

This was my second stay at the Howard Johnson in downtown vancouver. Upon arrival I checked into a room with 1 double bed for $59 plus tax. My room was on the 1st floor near the elevator and heard no noise. My room was well equipped with tv, wireless internet, phone, desk and lamps. Room and Bathroom was very clean... more

This was my 3rd time staying at this hotel. I have never had problems with noise there personally, but it likely depends on the night of the week that you are staying. If you are looking for a hotel in the downtown core where you can easily walk to everything, then it's a good choice. The hotel itself is nice,... more

I stayed here for 5 nights in the last week of Sep. Awesome location at a great price. Points any tourist would love to have knowledge about before booking a hotel... 1. Location - Extremely convenient right in the center of the downtown area. Bus stop right below the hotel. Train station about 10-15 mins walk from hotel. You could... more

My husband and I stayed in this hotel for 1 night in Oct 07 and were pleasantly surprised at how nice it is. The rooms are very nice and clean and they hotel is situated in a great location for seeing the city. We stayed here as the price was cheap (aprox £35 a room) and we definitely got value... more

Unfortunately I didn't sleep much. The hotel was very noisy: we had constant noise from the disco downstairs, people shouting in the corridor and various pipes and so on. The location was also quite sleazy. For the money I really think we could have found something better. more

The last thing you should do is stay in this hotel. On arrival with our group there were people spilling out of the bar into the lobby, drunks and beggars in the street. You have to use your room key to access the lifts and stairs for security. The rooms are small and the air condioning units very noisy. The... more

A mixed bag this place. Much has been said in previous reviews about the location which to be honest I didn't find all that bad. If you walk down Granville toward downtown you will pass 3 or 4 sex shops, peep show places etc. but no more than that and no worse than may other European cities I have stayed... more
