8.8/10 Excellent! (2,645 reviews)

Radisson blu was close to the Vancouver Airport. We were leaving at 3:30 am and the shuttle didn’t run until 4:30 so the Radisson Blu called a taxi and gave us a voucher for the ride. We appreciated this service. We ate at the restaurant on site and the food was delicious. The grounds were attractive and located near the marina. The rooms were clean and quiet.
