Only a couple blocks from the nearest SkyTrain station, the location of this hotel is a major plus. You have Robson street within walking distance, China Town and Gas Town are a within walking distance. Basically you can't go wrong with this location. The staff is amazing. The website speaks the truth when they claim to have friendly staff. Each... More

I booked a private room with ensuite and it was very spacious and clean. I'd recommend staying here as it compares very well to a lot of hotels I've stayed at and it is very good value for money. The location is also very convenient for downtown Vancouver. More

This is a basic hotel. It is clean, staff is friendly. The rooms are really small and we had a beautiful view towards a building wall 2 meters across the street. Internet is for free and very fast. The location is not too bad, could be better. More

The prices for hotels in Vancouver were just silly.They all appeared very over priced. When a work mate of ours who also does alot of travelling recommended we look up the YWCA Hotel we both laughed.

We have never stayed in this sort of hotel before but the prices of vancouver accommodation can get extremely high compared to other north american destinations we've visited before! The thing that swung it for us was a promo they were doing with the tourist... More

Firstly, I will have to say that the YWCA is not a 5 star hotel. If you accept that and adjust your expectations accordingly, you will not be disappointed. I arrived late in the evening around midnight. I had previously informed the hotel during my online booking that this would be the case. Checked in without any problems whatsoever. Staff... More

We stayed here for 9 nights on the 1st leg of our "big Canadian trip." It was very clean & comfortable. The staff were very helpfull. The location was spot on.We used the kitchen faciities, and " borrowed"delph from reception, for the duration of our stay. The only thing we missed was a padlock to keep our food in the... More

We stayed at the Y for eight days and we found the staff to be very friendly & helpful, and the room to be perfect for what we needed. The hotel is in a great location, close to Robson St for your shopping needs and two blocks to the train station. Our room was very clean and comfortable, not the... More
