We stayed in the junior suite on the non-road side of the hotel. It was comfortable, clean, and although we didn't use the kitchen area, it seemed good although there wasn't much in the way of plates/cutlery etc. There was some noise from the townhouses that backed the back of the hotel, but I'm sure much less than the road-side...

This was not a pleasure trip to Vancouver, my older brother had passed away and my sister and I were out to bring his remains home to the East Coast. We had rushed to get a flight out and had not made reservations at a hotel before leaving. We were able to walk in and get a room without any... More

Pros: cleaning staff do a great job and are incredibly nice. Front staff are helpful although they can be a little hit-and-miss. Breadfast buffet has a pretty good variety given that nothing is actually produced at the hotel (eggs, bacon, sausages etc are of the microwave variety) -- you can actually eat a fairly balanced and healthy breakfast. Rooms are... More

Good/Average room. Pleasant atmosphere and fairly clean. Mid-week was banned from having muffins. Apparently taking 4 muffins for a family of 3 was too much. Had to go to Starbucks to eat for the remainder of the week. Will never be back. More

A colleague of mine and I stayed here, as we were attending a show at the PNE. Location was great, because we were right across the street from the PNE. The property is also not far from food, shopping (like Walmart), etc. The free breakfast buffet was ample and decent. This property also has a shuttle to the hotel, but... More

I drove from Vancouver airport and the sat nav system took me via Vancouver city centre and along West & East Hastings Street. I have travelled the World and seen many sights however I have never seen so many homeless, drug addicts lining the street. I have to be honest I was thinking what have I done booking a hotel...

It's a holiday inn express and that's exactly what it is. It has a distinct feel of a ramada inn (slightly cheaper hotel) that was renovated 80% of the way. For example, the balconies are forgotten and completely bare. The big plus of this place is it s clean, cheap for Vancouver and they have an amazing free shuttle service... More

As a senior woman travelling alone I would like to say that while I was a guest of HI Express at 2889 East Hastings I felt well looked after. The staff was very attentive to my needs and I felt safe and secure while a guest there. The room I was assigned was clean and comfortable and I was well... More
