Specialties

With its signature garden courtyard and retro West Coast style, the Burrard is situated in one of downtown Vancouver's best locations - just minutes from Granville Street, Davie Street, Robson Street, Yaletown, Granville Island and the city's breathtaking 22-kilometre seawall. Having recently undergone a multi-million dollar renovation, the Burrard's rooms have been completely... more

A hip, retro West Coast hotel concept unlike anything else in the city, the Burrard is situated in central downtown Vancouver - within walking distance from everything this city has to offer

Echoing the successful transformation of East Vancouver's The Waldorf Hotel, the Burrard follows suit by hinging its vibe of a 1956 motor inn into a hip hotel. The difference is the Burrard is right downtown, making it wonderfully convenient to clubs on Granville Street and dining in the West End. Besides replanting the spectacular inner courtyard that all the motel-like units face, a gutting... more

The Burrard was not bad!
October 29, 2018

It was well located and the staff were friendly and helpful. It had a safe, which was a bonus. Good value for money. Comfortable bed and nice hot shower. Negatives - at the front it's noisy. There was an airconditioner which worked well to cool the room down but was quite noisy - however putting it on continuous fan did mask the outside noises. Overall a good place to stay. Nice and... more

I totally loved this place. The service here is top-notch. The rooms are really clean and the mini-sink was adorable. The location is fairly central. The bikes they lend out are pretty awesome - we used them to bike all the way to and through Stanley Park. I would highly recommend this place!

The rave reviews are correct! The Burrard is a hidden gem in the heart of Vancouver. It's hip, affordable, charmingly retro-chic and the staff is exceptionally warm. Start your mornings with Container Coffee down by the lobby or one of the espresso machines in your room (or both). There are free bikes for rent and a jungle greenspace in the courtyard.

The Burrard is a totally hip, totally affordable option when looking for a hotel in Vancouver. It kind of looks like it used to be an old hotel (motel, Holiday Inn, say what?!) that they put some real love into with an upgrade.

The hotel looks very bland and disappears into the streets cape. However, once inside, the unique character appears. A central courtyard open to the sky feels tropical.

Lovely trendy motel style hotel that is a bit different. We asked for a room overlooking the courtyard which was roomy and very clean and trendy. Short walk to everything including the beach! The guys on reception were extra friendly and helpful, advising on where to go for dinner.

Cutest Surprise
March 06, 2013

We checked in late at night and were welcomed into a pleasant environment and quickly up to our boutique room which was simply decorated and very comfortable. The hotel signs and labels were comical and the staff was very friendly. We rented bikes and rode around Vancouver and enjoyed the very environmentally-friendly aspect of the hotel in general. We would recommend to all friends!

Good Location. Very clean. It'sa motel that has been completely refurbished, but still has a motel feel so it you are expecting hotel amenities it won't be for you. Think of it like upscale backpacker clientele, not corporate.

The Burrard is newly refurbished and it is great. It is well located (a few blocks from shops and restaurants). Rooms and ensuite bathroom are nice and clean and fun, they provide Nespresso Coffee, bottles of water and good hygiene eco-friendly products (shampoo, conditionner, body wash, soap, body care and lips care) and lots of good and comfortable towels.

The Burrard has fun retro decor, down to the smallest details... subway tiles in the shower, obround slots in the radiator, a rounded-square toilet, mirror-chrome fixtures in the elevator...

The room was small but efficient, and the walls painted white and large window makes it seem bigger (I got a King room).

They let us check in early (around 1pm). Early check-in is not guaranteed but worth... more

OK, admittedly, I was total grumpy pants when I checked in. A strange sequence of events led to me booking in here for one night last minute and I wasn't taking any BS from life. I showed up early hoping for an early check-in. No can do. Fine, be back at 3pm.
Chapters free reading, Costco run for cheese and batteries (but of course!) and 2 hrs later I returned. But the room isn't ready yet!... more

A wonderful place full of character, humor
November 28, 2012

If you're looking for a hotel with character and personality - but also clean and in a great location - this is the hotel. This is not your boring chain hotel - instead it has a real feel to it (hip, 50's-ish) that's fun to experience. Rooms are on the smaller size but comfortable - and amenities are good with a 42-inch HD TV on the wall, coffee maker, etc. Love the signage around the place.

This was actually a nice surprise! Not good if you want the bells and whistles but modern, trendy and great renovation plus I love the marketing. Location is perfect, close to Robson, Davie and of course Burrard. Decent value, a tad expensive but you're probably paying for location! Missing space in the bathroom to get ready but otherwise great!

Tastefully redone rooms, lobby with a beautiful center courtyard garden. Unfortunately the rooms are not air conditioned so beware if you visit during a warm summer. Windows open to allow for breezes but they face a busy street. Overall it gave me a great launching pad to downtown Vancouver for a good value. The little touches of free bike rentals, water, and wifi make a big difference.
