Westin Bayshore Vancouver

Vancouver, Canada

Star rating

The hotel

This glamourous bay-side residence sits on a curve of Vancouver Harbour facing stunning Stanley Park — giving you incredible views and incredible access to this urban utopia. You can explore the park like locals with The Westin Bayshore’s complimentary bikes (if you’re not tempted off-track by cycling expeditions like their tantalisingly titled ‘Craft Beer Tour’). This being a Westin hotel, they’ve included other sporty freebies like RunWESTIN jogging routes, YogaWESTIN sessions, and a WestinWORKOUT® Fitness Studio. If sport isn’t your game, there’s always spa treatments, a soak in the chic circular pool (perfectly positioned by the harbour’s boardwalk, and your room’s ‘Heavenly’ bed and bath. And, after the sightseeing, the sports, or the simple relaxation, you can take your seat in the H2 Rotisserie and Bar to enjoy seasonal cuisine and views of Coal Harbour and the North Shore Mountains.

My family stayed here for 2 nights from July 8-10. We enjoyed our stay. The pools were amazing, especially for the kids. The rooms were clean and spacious. I especially appreciated the housecoats and views. We also loved being on the boardwalk and close to Stanley park. It was very quiet and didn't really feel like we were downtown in a big city. We walked the harbour late in the evening and felt very safe. The beds and pillows were comfortable. I was very impressed with the breakfast buffet. There were so many healthy options and felt very much like a high-end resort with the made-to-order omelettes. Unfortunately, I was not aware that my reservation only included 2 free breakfasts for the entire stay. I did appreciate that the staff complimented my 5 year old's breakfast, but the $45 cost for my oldest daughter and the next days breakfast was unexpected. I feel as though that part could have been communicated more clearly. All considered, we did enjoy our experience and I would stay here again. Read less

The room had 2 doubles for our family which was spacious, and a sliding door to a fenced off in room balcony, which allowed us to open up and enjoy the views and activities on the water. We self parked at the hotel carpark. The room had a fridge and was close to supermarket. The location was fantastic we were able to walk and explore Vancouver city effortlessly. We enjoyed using the hotel's free bicycles to explore Stanley Park and surrounds. Big thanks goes to Eva, for great customer service in helping get our bikes ready and making sure they were road worthy over the multiple days we used the bikes. This was a highlight of our trip. Also thanks to Thomas and Caio on front desk for helping us during our stay with great customer service. We also enjoyed using the indoor and outdoor pools, and enjoyed feasting on the yummy BBQ meat platter. Read less

The Westin Bayshore served as an excellent base for exploring Vancouver, especially Stanley Park, which is almost next door. It offers the convenience of the city but with a waterfront setting with walking and cycling paths right outside. The hotel features both indoor and outdoor pools, giving it a resort feel. Bikes are available for hire, with the first two hours free for hotel guests (just be sure to arrive early). We opted for a higher category room with city and marina views and we experienced no noise issues. The room was well-appointed with good air conditioning. We ate at the restaurant once for dinner and once for breakfast, and both meals were excellent. The restaurant staff, in particular, were outstanding - and in general we found service levels to be very good. Read less

Stunning location but guest service could be better, a lot better! Beautiful hotel, we had 2 corner suites, views were absolutely stunning. Hotel very clean. Dinner in restaurant was good Beautiful pool area, great snack service at pool. Cons. Only one working elevator for the entire hotel throughout our stay. Even the service elevator was broken. Signs that they were waiting on a part to fix it. Extremely inconvenient. We had requested and been told we would be assigned rooms next to eachother. They were near but not next door. I would insist upon this as we had loud neighbours who had other people to their room at 1am, laughing loudly and generally being obnoxious. Despite check in being 4pm, we didn't get our second room until 5pm. They told us it would be ready 'no later than 4'. My husband had to go down to reception THREE times to get the keys. We were told on one occasion someone was on their way up. It never materialised. My husband is a gold elite (almost platinum) member. He is loyal to the brand. They didnt seem concerned at this lack of service. We were a whole hour waiting with our kids who were desperate to go to the pool. No apology or gesture was offered despite me conveying to guest services how unhappy we were. Breakfast. We were told by reception that Breakfast was anytime from 6.30 to 11. We arrived at 9am to be told there was a 20 minute wait. We said we tried to book and were told we couldn't. The girl seemed to take pleasure in telling us we had to wait. We were called after about 5 minutes so I feel they were just trying to make it seem like an exclusive experience. When we were shown to out table I counted 4 empty & fully set tables of 4 all in immediate vicinity so not sure what was going on here! Give breakfast a miss. It was absolutely disgusting. Worst Breakfast we had in 2 weeks in Canada and the most expensive. The bacon was friend prosciutto. The butter tasted like cream cheese. Girl doing eggs didnt know how to do poached eggs. Virtually no kids offering. Staff Extremely slow to clear tables. We had to clear ourselves which they didnt like but we had no alternative. I cant emphasise how poor the Breakfast was. It looked nice but nothing tasted nice. The hotel is beautiful but they need to install sound proofing between rooms and major improvements in guest services. No one asked on check out how our stay was. Breakfast absolutely horrible. Would stay again only if rooms immediately next door to each other, elevator fixed and eat out for breakfast! Read less

Bayshore has two buildings, one each side of the outdoor pool. It also has an indoor pool. One of two restaurants closes for dinner Monday and Tuesday so limited choice on those days and must book for both if you have a schedule. Bedroom was average size with Juliette balcony.

Bayshore has two buildings, one each side of the outdoor pool. It also has an indoor pool. One of two restaurants closes for dinner Monday and Tuesday so limited choice on those days and must book for both if you have a schedule. Bedroom was average size with Juliette balcony. No clock, empty minibar, large tv on wall opposite bed, tv/coffee facilities BUT must ask for 'creamer' for tea. Bathroom had large shower cubicle and toiletries. Oddly, the small open-fronted wardrobe was in the bathroom. Annoying MUSAK everywhere. Read less
