Un hôtel à découvrir dans un site incroyable
Pros:

L’emplacement est incroyable, les chambres sont confortables et bien équipées et le personnel très accueillant.

Cons:

Un rafraîchissement des chambres serait bienvenu. On voit qu’elles datent un peu. Mais cela ne gène en rien le séjour.

Mother/daughter Annual Trip
Pros:

This is an annual mother-daughter trip. Our 7th year in a row. We love the bustling atmosphere and the ability to cross over to Vancouver for a little shopping. The staff at Granville Island Hotel are always accommodating when it comes to the number of people in our group. While the restaurant and rooms are quite expensive, it is well worth it. The Hotel is always clean. The noise level is fine. We love watching the people, boats, and water activities (love the pirate ship). The service from the front desk is absolutely fantastic. Shout out to Russell, who year after year is so kind, cheerful, and accommodating. See them all next year.
