Right across the street from beach and lovely walkway going right to Stanley Park. Older hotel, but staff have traditional hospitality and couldn’t have been more helpful. Hotel has charm!

Our room was comfortable but did not have an ocean view. Most of the staff were friendly & helpful. If a quiet, picturesque location across from the ocean appeals, then this is the best. Our dinner and breakfast were both tasty & nicely presented. The character of the 100 yr plus hotel is art deco and classic which rescues it from ordinary.
