| Reviews of Executive Inn Downtown |
We stayed there for 11 nights at the end of August 2005. The hotel is too
small, in every way,and too far away from actual downtown to be a base for a
holiday. The absence of a swimming pool really lets it down, two adjacent
cheaper hotels had pools.The hot tub on the 9th floor was again too small and
always too hot!! The staff, with the exception of Albert the concierge who was
more than helpful and a really nice guy, totally ignored us.I would not
recommend this hotel for a long stay OK for a night or two.
My partner and I booked our room online for location, beautiful rooms, and
value. When we arrived at the hotel, and were taken to our room we went down a
small hallway and literally ran in to the bed. The room was nice but tiny, tiny,
tiny. I must have neglected to realize that the hotel was probably for business
travelers. Now as you can see from our ratings we enjoyed our stay very much the
service was fantastic.
If staying in downtown Vancouver, there are many places one can select. First
of all, this hotel is NOT anywhere near Stanley Park. When we arrived, we
explained that we had to change clothes for a 3:00 wedding (ours) and it was
2:45. The front desk said check-in is 3:00 and that we should have thought of
that. However, since it was our "big day" they would upgrade us to a suite |
