Pros:

The room looked like the pictures. Elegant décor.

Cons:

Very busy reception area and impersonal. Room had nothing complimentary as I'd have expected for paying so much. Movies were very expensive and the coffee didn't have any real milk.

Sehr angenehmes, traditionsreiches Hotel. Schönes Gebäude
Pros:

Die Lage ist perfekt - Downtown Vancouver! Die Betten sind sehr bequem. Die Badezimmer sind sauber, nicht besonders modern. So gab es z.B. einen Duschvorhang - dieser war aber sehr schön und sauber und durch eine gebogene Stange klebte nichts am Körper

Cons:

Die Pagen haben nicht alle Familienmitglieder gleichermaßen behandelt. Aber der Gepäckservice war schon super.
