Top Vancouver Hotel Reviews

Hotel Belmont Vancouver - MGallery Collection

Hotel Belmont Vancouver - MGallery Collection

8/10 Good
"Conveniently located & friendly, helpful staff! We didn’t know that you had to carry your luggage up about 8 steps to get to front desk. My husband was able to manage our luggage but staff were there to assist for those who couldn’t. All staff we encountered were helpful and hotel was right in the midst of things, making it easy to get around. Rooms are somewhat compact but everything was clean. One other thing to note: There’s only one small elevator which can be an inconvenience too."
