Best Children's Beach Hotels Vancouver Near Me

Sharon Chatenay: If you bring your kids, a dog or both, this is the place to be!We came for business at the Vancouver General Hospital, only a 20 minute seaside walk away.I've stayed in downtown Vancouver many times with all the noise and bustle, and lack of greenspace. No such thing here. So convenient with Kitslano and its dog beach only 2 km away, walking oceanside to literally everywhere.Charleson Dog Park is also nearby with an Oceanview! Beautiful grassy areas with lit pathways right out the hotel doors , also a playground for the kids.The hotel staff and restaurant servers were attentive and very approachable. Rooms were well appointed, comfy beds and had a view of the ocean. There was a nice business center on our floor, also a bonus if you're working away from home.Parking was a breeze with surface self parking at 20 bucks a day. Access to the other side of Vancouver across the creek is easy with the shuttles and aquabuses everywhere. Want to paddleboard, kayak, sail, or rent a boat or go whale watching? It's all here. Bring your bike or use bikeshare to ride the amazing seawall that connects Kitsilano , Granville to Stanley Park and beyond.This is the only place we will stay at for future trips. What a gem!Rooms: Nice, clean and comfy. Not huge but adequate Some have small balconies . There's a hottub, ex room and sauna on the 3rd floorNearby activities: Everything!!!Safety: Accessibility may be a challenge for wheelchair users Check before you go . I saw people using walkers and such, but there is uneven surfaces throughout the area, old rail car tracksWalkability: Very walkableFood & drinks: Delicious food at Bridges Tap and Grill Seafood is the best here

Jordan: This place is incredibly run down and disgusting. If you like mice running around your room this is the place to be!

Xavia: We saw a mouse twice in the days leading up to check-out. When we expressed these concerns to the front desk, the only solutions offered were to either switch rooms or “add more traps” to our current room. Both solutions seemed inadequate considering the possibility of more encounters. Instead, we avoided the hostel aside from sleeping and put all of our belongings on higher ground. When we went to talk to the front desk again at check-out to reiterate our concerns, he claimed that the price we paid (~$1400 for 7 nights) was worthwhile and comparable to other hotels in the area. Beware: for what you pay to stay here, apparently mice are included in the price.

Lucien Bacon: We saw a mouse twice and went to talk to the front desk about it. The only solutions given were to add more traps or switch rooms. Both solutions seemed inadequate all things considered and so we avoided being in the hostel, putting all of our belongings on higher ground. When we went to talk to the front desk again to talk to someone else, they claimed the price that this is apparently worthwhile and comparable to others in the area. Beware, for you pay to stay here, apparently mice are included in the price.

Maggie Joseph: Much older hotel but awesome location. Okay if you want to cheap out, very dated but location makes up for it.Nearby activities: Tons to do, so many different places to eat, right by beach!Walkability: So much to see whether you walk or rent a bike.Food & drinks: Restaurants galore!

Ember Wolfe: My partner and I came to Vancouver to watch a performance downtown and volunteer at a local charity. I booked on Expedia and I ended up paying about 240$ for 2 nights by the beach.Parking:There is a small underground parkade down the alley to the south of the building (there is no access from the residential road that we could find but we turned left off of the main street.) Parking was fairly cheap and the person at the counter was very helpful. I had seen another review say the parkade was “creepy” but that was not the case for us; It’s quite a tight fit and down a very steep ramp - but as two people from Alberta where the roads are made for cars and semis everything in Vancouver is a tight squeeze! The main garage door is locked from the outside which made me feel safe that our car would be fine. Access from the parkade to the hotel is just up a flight of stairs and into a side door. Parking is first come first serve. 4/5Service:The staff were very kind and attentive. They answered all of my questions since this was my first time being the person to book and pay for a hotel! I couldn’t have been happier with the service I received. 5/5Amenities:Our room (which was the cheapest I could get) had a very small but nice clean bathroom which was well stocked but lacking a counter/shelf for my partner to put his contacts in, this wasn’t too big of a deal as there was a cabinet right outside the bathroom in a little walk in closet kind of area. The water pressure was fantastic and got up to my ideal temperature of near lava. Our room also had a kitchen with stove top, coffee maker, microwave, and fridge. There is an elevator if you can’t take the stairs to the higher floors but it was kind of finicky and the door sometimes wouldn’t close fully the first time and it would have to reopen and close again before it would go. There was also a coffee maker fully stocked in the lobby. 4/5Room:The room was large and had AC, two beds (one queen and one twin), a TV, a dining table for two, a vanity/dresser type thing, a walk in closet, a washroom far from the sleeping area and buffered by the closet so you couldn’t hear what was going on in there, and a kitchen. Overall the room was nice and clean but quite dated. We only slept in the queen sized bed but I chilled on the twin both days and it was quite comfy. The beds were on wheels (I’m guessing for ease of cleaning) and I accidentally smashed my foot into one of the wheels at least 4 times. The queen bed was also firm and comfortable but squeaky and I felt like I might have bothered my downstairs neighbours just by adjusting my sleep position. The floor was carpet which my partner didn’t like but I couldn’t be bothered. I had seen some other reviews saying the room smelled “old” or “mildewy” but again I didn’t have this problem and everything was clean. I did find an old water bottle in one of the vanity drawers but it was a weird area and I was snooping around and it’s honestly not something I’d expect to be cleaned between each guest so I wasn’t bothered. The walls had a few skuff marks and places the paint had flaked off. Our view was nice but if you have a molten hot shower make sure to crack the window open so it doesn’t condense! We couldn’t hear our neighbours but we could hear people moving in the hallway occasionally. 3/5Location:This is the BEST part. We were literally a two minute walk from the English Bay beach, the entire block has lots of bars and food places of all types (the See the Sea (?) Pizza was really great after having a few drinks) and we were also connected to a Mediterranean food place that was filling and cheap. There is a Starbucks on the corner, at least two pubs, and I’m pretty sure I saw a convenience store all on the same block as the hotel. We also saw a performance downtown and it was only a twenty minute walk back to our hotel so we decided to skip the Uber! 5/5TLDR: If I was going on my own I would stay here again! It was cheap and in a great location but a bit dated and the bed squeaks. Staff were fantastic. :))

VN B: So after ready the reviews I was hesitant but honestly couldn’t bet the price.For the price it’s the best value all around. Yes rooms are dated, the hotel is older, but they are clean and beds are comfortable. Not sure I’d stay here with kids but for a place to sleep between activities highly recommend.The proximity to the beach, shopping, food and transit is excellent. (Even from the airport east to get to using public transit)Will stay here again

Jay Joyce '74: Disappointing at best...My wife and I stayed as part of a Regent Cruise Lines off-ship Vancouver excursion. We have stayed at various Fairmont hotels in the past, and always had a great experience.Not this time.After the first evening, we went to breakfast with what we thought was plenty of time to spare. Upon arrival at the Notch8 maitre d's desk, we were told it would be a 15-20 minute wait for the breakfast buffet - even though we could see numerous empty seats in the dining room. They explained they were short-staffed. I asked to see the hotel manager, and only the desk manager was present. I expressed my concern, and said that at a minimum, we should have been told when we checked into the hotel to expect delays in breakfast service (because we had a morning time commitment). He was not aware of the problem. When I said that I would like to speak with the General Manager about the problem, he indicated that the GM had not yet arrived, and he did not know when he would. However, he said that he would have the GM contact me. The GM never contacted me.The make-up mirror light in our room was not working upon arrival. The next morning (same day as the breakfast problem) I stopped by the Front Desk, and the receptionist logged in the problem and said they would have it fixed that day. When we arrived back in our room that evening, it still had not been fixed. I called and they said that someone would be up to fix it. An hour later no one had appeared, and I called again. Same response - they'd get someone up to fix it. An hour later, after no one appeared, I went to bed.Next Day - breakfast - no problem - they had opened more space, leading me to wonder why they could not have seated us at an empty seat the day before...?At 8:15 AM, asked to see the manager to discuss my concerns; same desk manager appeared and said that GM was not in yet. I told him about the lack of response regarding the maintenance problem, and that the GM had not contacted me the day before. Polite reaction, but no actionable response on his part. When we left the hotel at 8:30, the GM had still not arrived.We were told by one of the dining staff team that there have been recent cuts in hours. How can this be possible if you're already not providing the level of service that Fairmont guests have come to expect?After three visits to Vancouver over several years - all at Fairmont Hotels - we will NOT stay at this hotel again, and not recommend it to others.

Taylor Rockefeller: Stayed here with my husband and 2 young kids. Very kid friendly without being a "kid" hotel. Room service food was average,and our bathroom was a little small, but the staff was all 10/10 fantastic. We can't wait to stay here again, either as a romantic getaway or as a family-friendly option. Great location with city views. I can't compliment the staff or environment here enough!

Mitchell Edwards: Beautiful Hotel with tons of history.Super friendly and helpful staff.Defiantly recommebd

Geraldine Henry: Our whole trip was a positive experience from before we arrived; to bellhop service, to extra assistance required with AC and figuring out amenities. Our breakfast before departure was top notch. Each staff member was kind and courteous. Thank you for helping us make the most of our little trip for our kids soccer. We always look forward to our time here. Thank you!Safety: Options for shopping and dining our were all close by. It is nice to have the downtown core experience and be safe and comfortable.Walkability: Excellent location for making the most of our time here.Food & drinks: Always love the quality of care that goes into our food while we are here.

Bernard Beck Jr: Had a fantastic stay at this beautiful hotel as we were getting ready to depart for a cruise. Staff was AMAZING. Will Lin took exceptional care of us during check-in, and was readily available with any assistance that we required during our stay, including being most professional in always calling us by name. The bell and parking staff were also extremely polite and professional. A ten minute walk to the pier and convention center, this location is near anything that you would require including a massive amount of restaurants and bars.The room was fantastic, clean, and we were fortunate (thanks to Will Lin) to get a room with an awesome view of the port.

Matteo Bocci: 4,5 stars. I spent five nights in this hotel for a business meeting. It is impressive how this huge hotel is run in a seemingly effortless fashion. Everything was really good. My room was spacious, clean, with an excellent view. The bed incredibly comfortable, and the service almost impeccable. The only minor point I believe can be improved is the coverage and speed of the Wi-Fi connection. Perfectly located, really convenient to walk pretty much anywhere in the city. Thank you for having me & looking forward to another stay!

Mehsam Sunny: Funny place to work at. They don't hire many people from south America , Asia, middle East , Russia to work in front office , guest services, restaurants and servers.

Tanya: It's the little things that matter. We arrived after a 14hr flight at the hotel at 8:30am. Dreading the late check-in, we were told our room was ready and we could go straight in. The porter was about 2 minutes behind us with our bags. Excellent! Twin beds that were double size. Pillows that were so comfortable. Shower curtain on a rail that was arc-ed outwards - the curtain didn't slap around you as you showered. Bathroom products that not only smell nice, but didn't feel like the cheapest, driest washing liquid. Positioned right on top of the cruise terminal making it easy for us to travel onward. A really really nice place to stay.

Montse Albella Fernandez: Hotel precioso ,cómodo con unas habitaciones espectaculares .

Steve Wilkins: Stayed for four nights pre an Alaska cruise. We had a club deluxe double double room, which was spacious and comfortable. The bathroom was adequate. Service was good from the staff we spoke with. Breakfast in the club lounge was of a high standard, and there is no need to pay extra for breakfast if you book a club room. I didn't think the hotel, in general, was of the same luxury as other Pan Pacific's I've stayed in. Nevertheless, I would recommend and stay again in the future.

Chris Fowler: First time staying here and likely will try another hotel first if we have to stay in Vancouver again.The room was very clean, quiet and comfortable . The staff were very pleasant and helpful and seemed happy to be working here.Bed was comfortable and the AC worked well. Pillows were a bit small and soft, but we had a good night sleep anyways.The reasons for for not getting more stars are:Parking is isn’t included, yes a small discount is given, and there was always someone patrolling the area, which a gave me piece of mind, but I have gotten security and parking included at hotels just up the street. Maybe it’s because I am not from the city, but $50+ for 24hrs of parking…. Ouch.No breakfast, or deals on food.TV, after a long day or running around, we couldn’t watch anything good or recent unless we wanted to pay. Now maybe I am wrong , but then it wasn’t clear how to watch anything good or recent.Didn’t try the internet.A hotel of this size, would be very difficult to paint and modernize, so I don’t mind that everything felt a bit dated.IMO not worth the price.

Benita Very nice!: We stayed here after disembarking from our cruise to Alaska to enjoy Vancouver for a couple of days. Be aware that this hotel does not provide any shuttles to the airport or anywhere else.
