Although we've stayed at several hotels in the downtown area, this was our first stay at the Coast Coal Harbour.
We were very impressed and plan to return to this hotel for future visits to YVR.
Our 15th floor room was very spacious and comfortable. Samuel was kind enough to provide us with a room accommodating my wife's pet allergies with a beautiful north-facing view of the harbour and mountains.
The room was well furnished and the bed (and pillows) were particularly comfortable. Bathrooms were clean... bath towels were large and soft! We loved the heated bidet toilet seat (heaven!). The room was cleaned daily (even without us having to ask!). Cleaning staff were friendly and efficient.
The hotel is well located for convenient access to the seawall walk, Canada Place, Convention Centre, transit hubs, plenty of restaurants and shopping.
We only went to the hotel restaurant once for coffee and dessert. It was the evening... and they didn't serve coffee at that time... had tea instead. The dessert was good! It appears to be a separate privately owned restaurant accessible by the hotel.
The fitness centre was well equipped with plenty of towels, free weights and exercise machines. If you just want to work-out on a yoga mat, space is very limited. Only one (well-used) yoga mat... LOL.
Overall, we really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. We would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a safe, comfortable, convenient and economical place to stay.
