Comfort Inn Downtown

This is a great hotel if you’re going to be spending the whole day out and about and using the room only as a place to sleep/​take a shower.
As another reviewer mentioned, the room is very small. The distance between the end of the bed and the wall is enough for a person to walk through tightly. Despite this, the room is very comfortable. The beds are soft and nice. The bathroom has very good water (shower/​sink temperature responds quickly) and it seems as if the cabinet and counter were remodeled.
In terms of location, it is absolutely superb. There is a parking lot next to the hotel that has free parking for hotel guests, something that other hotels don’t offer. Sweet! The hotel is attached to an Irish pub, but I did not hear any noise or partying from my room on the second floor.
The outside looks kind of run down, but if you step inside, it is cozy and comfortable. I would definitely recommend it. I am happy with my experience, especially at 56USD a night for a room with 2 double beds.
I did not have the breakfast buffet included in the package (I believe it was an extra 10 $ on Expedia), so I can’t say anything about it. However, I would advise forgoing the «free» breakfast and getting something from Tim horton’s across the street for around 3 dollars.

A clean, reasonably priced and spartan hotel that’s extremely well situated to anywhere you want to go in Vancouver. Staff are friendly and courteous. Pub next door has a nice beer and whisky selection. There’s a restaurant in the basement of the property that turns into a nightclub in the evening. Unless you are coming for the party, I’d highly recommend staying on the upper floors. Last call in Vancouver isn’t until 2:30 AM. The POUNDING music from the nightclub doesn’t stop until 3:00. Earplugs didn’t even help.

The people here are phenomenal! Very courteous, very helping and always accommodating! The people at the reception, Tara, the bell-​hop guy, all of them. We were there 2 nights with our baby daughter and everyone there made our stay very memorable! The location of this hotel is right in the middle of downtown and the prices were attractive.
Highly recommended!

Good location and they charge you for everything! The bed is comfortable, the pillows are fluffy, the towels are thick, and they do give you real glasses/​mugs in the room. That said, the mini fridge was small and does not have a freezer compartment to freeze our ice packs. The décor in the room and hallway is decades old and the floor in our room is uneven. They charge you $ 20 plus tons of parking tax and fees to park at their tiny lot next to the hotel. The breakfast buffet at the pub next door is not free ($ 18.99?)!! It is a nice location w a lot of places you can walk to, but it is also kind of noisy at night. We would probably stay somewhere else next time we visit Vancouver.

This staff here are just so accommodating and very professional. Can’t say enough nice things about them. Hotel will do a fair trade on currency exchanges. Hotel lacks resort amenities and is older but there is free wifi in your room and use of computers in the lobby. Complimentary coffee every morning. Just be aware that bar noise does carry and may rouse you from sleep despite the comfortable bedding. Also for the elderly know that there are stairs leading to the lobby. Make use of the bellhop and tip him/​her appropriately.

Great hotel great location. Only issue is the one lift they have (it’s a little slow) and the rooms are quite small, if you can overlook those things this is a great budget hotel right in the middle of downtown. Able to walk everywhere and also close to public transport for further trips. Would definitely stay again!

I am not particularly picky about hotels. I got a chance to travel Europe and stay in tome pretty interesting hostels. So overall, I think this hotel was everything you can expect from a hotel in the downtown area in Vancouver.
The staff was incredibly helpful. I needed help learning how to take the bus system. The front desk attendants let me know where I could get bus passes, and which bus to take out to Kitslano (where my friend lives). Also, they were great when I asked to switch rooms from a single queen to a double double.
The rooms were clean and the cleaning staff was very respectful of my space. I had to come back to my room during late morning and the cleaning staff was in there. When I showed up, they let me be for a bit rather than hovering over me.
The last great aspect of this hotel is that it is right on the main drag in downtown. There are bars and clubs directly on the block. Also, you get a discount to the two bars in the basement if you show your room key. This aspect is also one of the hotels flaws. I stayed Thursday, Friday and Saturday night and all three nights the night life made the street outside my window noisy. Yelling, screaming and cars were making it hard to get to sleep early in the night. I ended up turning on the cooling/​heating system and shutting my windows in order to cancel out some of the noise. However! This is when I found the second flaw to the hotel!!!
So the heating and cooling system is on a motion sensor. At first this seems like a great idea. Go green, right? However, I think the building engineer made a fatal design. If you are sleeping you are not moving. This means that in the middle of your sleep you will wake up cold or hot. To fix this however, all you need to do is wave your arms in the air and it’ll go right back on.
Only those small things really bothered me, but I would totally stay there again. It is a great price and you live in relative comfort right in the downtown area.
Bueno!

Would be a 5 star review except they charged my CRC a temporary hold when they had already charged for the security hold! They told us we’d get our refunds in 21 business days, that’s insane! This place is great location wise! It’s right across the street from the best clubs and bars in Vancouver! Staff is friendly even though they catch a little attitude sometimes. I’d definitely recommend to anyone! Rooms are really small and the breakfast cost money! So does parking! Oh yeah my friend had a guy spend the night with her after we got down partying and they charged us $ 30 extra because he spent the «night» (4am-​9am) be aware of that!

Stayed over (last night!) as I had a mid-​week concert and thought it would be better to sleep close to work.
From the outside, the Comfort Inn looks super shifty, but that could not be further from the truth. The staff are all lovely and check-​in was super speedy.
The room was very small but it was more than enough for just me for one night. And the bed! So comfortable. Possibly the best sleep I’ve had in 2015.
The only problem I had is that the sound proofing in the walls is very weak and I could hear everything happening in the hotel around my room. But after I fell asleep that no longer mattered.
Oh, and did I mention that it’s super cheap?

The best cost-​benefit in the area
Close to the skytrain station and biggest stores in downtown. Very comfortable bedrooms, kind and helpful staff. I recommend!

Stayed at Comfort Inn for a night in December. I found a great deal on Hotwire and scored a room for less than $ 65. Pretty good since it is a three star hotel in the city.
The best thing about this Comfort Inn is the location. It is right in the middle of the Granville Entertainment District. Vancouver nightlife is just outside the door. Though the area near the hotel is a little seedy since there are a few downtrodden folks loitering the neighborhood.
This is a boutique hotel and feels like one. There is only one elevator and it is slow. Since my room was only a couple floors up, I decided to take the stairs aside from the trips when I was lugging my carry-​on.
The room I got had a decent city view facing the big Tim Hortons across the street. The room was cosy, but small. Definitely the smallest room I have stayed in while visiting the Vancouver area. It is bigger than a hotel room in Asia, but not by much. The space between the beds and bathroom is relatively narrow. To save space, the TV is mounted on the wall instead.
The room has free Wi-​Fi as well as a safe to keep your precious belongings. But there isn’t a fridge or a fitness center. The bathroom is very stylish and looks like there was a recent renovation as it seems new. The hotel offers a breakfast (for a fee) in the Irish pub (Doolin’s) downstairs. There is also a discount for hotel guests when dining at Doolin’s.
I thought my stay here was just alright. It was good value for the buck. But it was not a good place to stay on a Saturday night. The windows are not soundproof so you will hear a lot of noise coming from the streets into the wee hours of the night. I wouldn’t recommend this hotel to someone who needs a good night’s sleep. This hotel is better suited for the nightlife reveler who needs a place to crash after a wild night of partying.

The cost-​benefit relation of this hotel is perfect. It is located in a very convenient area, near Robson (the popular shopping-​street). It is true there are homeless people in the area, but for now it hasn´t been an issue for us. It is also true that the hotel is next to an Irish Pub, so maybe the first floor isn´t a good option. We are on the third one and we don´t hear a thing.
The bedroom is pretty small but comfy. The bed and pillows are awesome, the same with the shower. The only bad thing is that the heat makes A LOT of noise when it’s turned on. There´s free coffee in the lobby and in your own room. Wifi is good and free. There´s a big TV in the bedroom with decent cable service.
The buffet breakfast is very good (American style) and it is served on the Irish Pub.

Dear Management,
If you have guests staying in your hotel for a week or more. I would suggest you guys put these folks in the upper level. We weren’t happy when we could clearly hear our drunk neighbors talking loud or doing it in the bathroom.
We got a room on the first floor and the club/​bar next door is very loud. I’d suggest you bring ear plugs.
We weren’t happy when there were young club goers yelling across the hallway in the first floor. They even told older folks who tried to tell to keep it down to shut up. No security? I’m sure the front desk could hear them loud and clear through the stairwell. They did nothing about it.
On our last day, we spotted a cockroach crawling on our wall. We left disgusted. Good thing, we didn’t sleep another night.
Now for the PROS:
This place was spot clean. Staff is nice. Comfy bed. Clean shower. The location is convenient. Restaurants, bus stops, shopping are all walking distance. I give this place three stars. However, it should be lowered knowing that there are cockroaches hanging out. Completely unacceptable. When you spot one, there are countless. This place will probably have a pest infestation in the near future.
By the way, I booked this placed based on the reviews here, but I thought I’d weigh in my experience.

Good hotel. A bit dated. Very comfortable beds. Decent sized room. Free coffee making facilities and wifi. Close to downtown attractions.

This is a good little hotel that isn’t too far from the attractions. Several bus lines pass nearby. It was a good value for the money.

great location for the tourists looking for some action in the entertainment district, so stay away if you’ve got kids.
Convenient location for food, with the new Tim hortons, Doolin’s Pub, chronic Tacos, Olympia Bar & a ton of pizza/​donair places too.
Rooms are nicer than average, actually this one is more hotel-​ish than your typical view of what inns are.
parking at $ 16/​day isn’t too bad. Small surface lot right beside hotel by the alley, which i prefer than underground parkades.
Cool lobby & seating.
free wifi in the rooms, no gym but do offer Nash Fitness passes for a few of their upgrades.

Great hotel in the area, if not the best, for a very good rate.
Rooms are clean, bed and linen and towels are very cormfy. Big HQ TV. Quiet place. Free wifi is very good.
The breakfast is located at the Irish Pub next to the hotel and was VERY good with a lot of choise and in large quantities: scones, toasts, cereals, apples, eggs and bacon…
Try to avoid rooms on the 1^st floor so as you may ear people partying in the Pub :)

Bed so comfy, pillows so fluffy, clean room.
I wish all hotels had standards as high as Comfort Inn. I loved my stay there. The temp was perfect inside.
The location was close to everything: the train station, downtown.

Friends stayed at this hotel while we did an airbnb. Apparently this is an awesome hotel location for those who want to party or bar hop in the city. Its near a pub.
Service is great here.
Only thing I must mention is that it is not handicap friendly. The guy has to help you down and up the stairs to the front lobby through a small door. Not ramp.
Two computers provided downstairs. They are not up-​to-​date with the most recent Windows, just fyi.

This was the best price I found downtown and the day of so my hopes weren’t high but I was pleasantly surprised. The rooms are crazy small; we had a room with two queen beds for two people but I would not ever have tried to put more than two people in there. That being said, I’m always happy when the beds have white duvet covers rather than icky comforters– makes me feel like they get cleaned more often. The sheets and the room in general seemed really clean.
Big perks: free parking came with the room (which may have just been the expedia deal) ($ 14 a night otherwise which is pretty cheap by comparison), free wifi, free printing in the lobby, and a free breakfast at the pub next door. The location was great for walking around to a bunch of neighborhoods. The beds were clean and comfortable. The bathroom was large and clean. What more do you need?
We parked the car in their lot and left it there until late in the afternoon the day we checked out, which saved us having to try to navigate driving and parking around the city. We had a few drinks at the pub next door which had live music and a friendly bar staff.

Das Hotel war sauber, die Gegend nicht. Es gibt ja viele, die sagen, dass Vancouver die schönste Stadt der Welt ist, wenn man diesen Bezirk sieht, ist sie es nicht.
Der Parkplatz vor der Tür wird rund um die Uhr bewacht, da sich in den Seitenstraßen allerhand Gesindel rumtreibt. Es gibt nur einen Haupteingang zum Hotel, welcher ebenfalls bewacht wird, wodurch man sich dann doch etwas sicherer fühlt.
Gegen das Hotel gibt es kaum was zu sagen, es wurde gerade erst renoviert und Frühstück (inclusive) gibt es in einem kleinen Irischen Pub neben dran. Das war ca. das beste der ganzen Reise!
Die Zimmer sind alle ausgestattet mit neuen LCD Fernsehern, nur das Bad lässt in seinem Schein etwas zu wünschen übrig. Wir hatten dann auch noch das Glück, dass der Feueralarm losgegangen ist und wir das Gebäude verlassen mussten, so hatten wir wenigstens einen Grund Essen zu gehen. (Foto hab ich hochgeladen)
