Review from Michelle F.
4/6/2012 1 Check-in Here
Right on Granville, so convenient. The beds were super comfortable, the rooms of adequate size (not huge, but totally doable), and the staff was very friendly. I would stay here again, certainly, though next time I suspect I would rather stay in the Gastown area.

Found on http://booking.com. Described as a centrally located good value place. I would agree. Rooms were clean and spacious enough for a family of 4. Yes we had a 1st floor room above the rocking bar but we got home at midnight and did not have a problem sleeping despite some of the monotonous bass noise. They were highly occupied so a room switch could not be acommodated. Free wifi was helpful. Parking in open lot next door for about $13. Very convenient to everything.

The Comfort Inn may not look like much from the outside -- it is in that area of Granville after all -- but the inside will surprise you. After last year's stay at the Ramada, I was prepared for the worst, and this place was a pleasant surprise. Our room was very clean and well-decorated (take the leopard print curtains with a grain of salt), and even had a little HDTV. If I had brought my laptop, I would've loved the free WiFi, but even so, there was a computer in the lobby, which we used to its fullest. The staff was very friendly and helpful with figuring out bus schedules and making restaurant reservations. One star off only for the room size, which left very little floor space around the two beds.
Maybe this speaks to the quality of the hotels I usually relegate myself to as a poor student, but this was literally one of the nicest places I've ever stayed. -

I pretty much never stay at a Comfort Inn type of hotels...just not my speed. This particular trip was booked by my friend at the last minute and we wanted to stay down town without spending $300 a night.
My initial knee-jerk reaction when we pulled up in a cab was "oh, hell no...where did you bring me girl!" However, in the course of the next two days I very quickly got over being a hotel snob :-)
Don't get me wrong, this is not the Westin or the W...but, the hotel was clean, rooms were spacious, staff was friendly and for only $130 a night the location was primo! Right in the thick of things off Granville, we were able to walk everywhere and had a fantastic time. Considering that we only used the hotel to sleep...this was the perfect pick.
This is not a place for families with kids or folks looking for some quiet time, since the hotel rooms are located in the middle of busy down town streets and they sit on top of an Irish pub :-) Which for our purposes only added to the overall city experience! -

I reserved a room with king size bed for tonights. Although the room was rather small, it was very clean and comfortable.
We decided to extend our stay for additional night. The staff was very helpful in letting us do that. We had to switch our room because all king size bed rooms were booked for that additional night. We left all our staff in the room and they took care of moving them while we went out sightseeing.
The down side was that the second room with two beds that we moved to for the additional night had a paper thin wall. I could hear the conversation in the neighboring room. I think this particular room was a suite converted into regular rooms by adding a wall.
It sucks cuz I loved my first room. -

Great location! Directly on Granville which is the club hub of downtown Vancouver with lots of bars, places to eat, etc... This is a major party street, so it can get loud at night. There is an awesome irish restaurant in the basement that doubles as a pub/club at night too.
Hotel is reasonably priced for being right downtown. Nice beds and rooms (flat screen TVs and WiFi) with some decent views of downtown on the upper floors. There is no gym on site, but the front desk provides a day pass to the Steve Nash sports club which is only a few block north. FYI - parking is an additional $11 (at least) per night.
My #1 choice when I am in town for work. -

This is my very first time staying at a Comfort Inn and first time in Vancouver. The hotel was very cheap (under $80)...that's right under $80. Here's a tip, make sure to join the Choice Privilege before booking, you'll get your member code through your email. Once you get your member code, you can book your room for a cheaper price. Our room was the king bed, with the fireplace (unfortunately, it didn't work), flat screen Toshiba tv with cable. The bathroom was nice, but no counter space, because all there is a single sink, which wasn't a problem since we just used the desk. There's a coffee maker in the room, which we didn't use. Very friendly and helpful staff. It's a perfect location, because it's on Granville and Nelson. Free wireless. Parking is right beside the Inn, which is the parking lot, no valet parking. Although we stayed on the 5th floor, our view was not desirable, we were looking down to the apartments next door. The view is not a problem since we only opened the curtains to let the natural light in the room.
I'm only giving it 3 stars because of their breakfast. Although what they already offer is great, hard boiled eggs, bagels, fruits, bread, coffee, tea, orange juice, apple juice, cereals, you make your own waffles....what they need are meats and scrambled eggs. You eat your breakfast at the bar downstairs, which is pretty cool since it's a happening bar at night. -

This was the hotel that we found after searching and searching for a hotel to stay at in Beautiful ( I MEAN BEAUTIFUL) BC. The first night was a charm, and the front desk rep actually switched us to a room up on the 4th floor because there is a club that gets super loud at night below. More at the end of our stay, but at this point we've been totally impressed with the hotel and the location.

Being a hotel snob, I was very skeptical of this hotel, but to my surprise the hotel is very good for a 3 star, rooms are small, but the rooms are very clean, hotel wall is thin and you will hear your neighbor, this is not a family hotel, but it is in a great location,

I stayed at the Comfort Inn Downtown to have a good night's stay that was as close (and cheap) as possible to the Orpheum Theatre. I've stayed at my share of crappy looking Comfort Inns around California and Las Vegas so my expectations were low. It's located right in downtown near Granville, and it's connected to an Irish bar. When my taxi driver dropped me off to this place, I winced, thinking "ugh, well it looks like I got what I paid for." But once I actually got to my room it was a little bit better than I expected. A little flatscreen TV was hooked up to the wall and I had free WiFi in the room! The room was small, and my window view was the adjacent building. The bathroom looked as if it was recently renovated and was so big in there, it felt like it was half the size of the actual bedroom portion of the room. I think the only negative thing I can say about this place is that if you're a light sleeper, you better get to sleep before the music starts up at the Irish bar next door. I could easily hear the loud music and vibrations from that place, and I was on the second floor of the hotel. If you want to be close to all the good shopping in downtown and don't mind the shady looking location, this a great place to stay.
