At the end of Davie Street our top floor room had a balcony we could sit out on and a view of the water. For the price we paid cant be beat. The hotel looks old from the outside but the room are clean and the bathroom is updated with a lovely walk in shower. The king size bed was very comfortable. Although the windows and sliding door are old and not very soundproof the street noise is nothing after dark so not a problem. Great places to eat nearby and good ice cream spots to walk down to the beach with a cone in hand.

My 82-year-old father stayed at this hotel with very limited knowledge of English. I was worried that it will be a problem but turned out staff went out of their way to accommodate my dad and were very helpful. Unfortunately, I don't know the names of the Front Desk staff but they were all amazing. THANK YOU very much for looking after my Dad. He will definitely return.

This hotel is a good value. It's right in English Harbor by the Sea Wall and Stanley Park, and walkable to many restaurants and other amenities. Room was comfortable. Very friendly accommodating staff.

Helpful staff. Acknowledged repeat visit. Welcomed our dog and provided help information that helped us enjoy the access and area around the hotel. Parking was very convenient and sheltered which was great while loading and unloading our dog.

Comfortable beds, room was tight for 3 adults but clean and good value anyway. Good clean bathroom. Great location, close to the beach and places to eat. Staff were very accommodating, we arrived about 7am after a 14 hour flight and the gentleman said our room was ready and let us check in early. Also I had booked via Booking.com, who had stuffed it up, but the Best Western staff were extremely helpful and responded quickly to my messages. Would definitely stay here again.

If you like to stay few steps to the beach area and amenities, beautiful view of the water and the mountains, good service, clean rooms, helpful and accommodating staff and cleaners, accessible and walking distance restaurants and stores, and even only few minutes drive to the downtown core, I highly suggest that you stay at Best Western Sands at Davie St., Vancouver, BC, Canada.

Hello We apologize for any issue that you are experiencing with trying to change the dates of your upcoming reservation. We can see extensive conversations between you and our front desk agents via the booking.com portal. Our team has informed you that because you booked through a third party, versus directly with the hotel, you will have to make any changes through the third party as well. They have provided you with the contact phone number for the third party to change your booking dates. Unfortunately, because you didn’t book directly with the hotel, we do not have authorization to modify your booking. It may be that you need to cancel your booking and re-book with our property, which will also modify the price of your booking and is subject to our availability for your given dates.

Absolutely amazing service from check in to check out. We ate in the restaurant twice. The food and service were great. I love the green idea of $15 voucher for restaurant if you chose no maid service during your stay.

I would definitely want to stay here again in the summer when I can full utilize being right across the street from the beach! That was definitely the thing that sold me on this hotel. The staff is very friendly and the room was clean and comfortable. Loved the shower in the bathroom too! The food in the restaurant was really delicious, but I was under the impression that it was complimentary with our stay and instead were just given some credit to use toward the food, which ended up being fine too. Lots of great things around the area as well, so overall this was a great location to stay in and would definitely like to stay in again!

I had a fabulous birthday weekend in Vancouver, we were all super impressed with the hotel, shops, restaurants and beachfront all right out the front door. The front desk people were down to earth, and the pub had amazing nachos, music and service. Only one thing was kinda weird....we were in a handicap room, so everything was set up for a wheelchair......might of been my birthday age!!!!
