Review from Nicole H.

I've stayed here for work on a number of occasions and can honestly say that this is my favourite hotel in Vancouver to stay at. The rooms are always clean and the beds comfortable and I always feel safe here, which to me are the most important things in a hotel. It's a nonsmoking hotel but each room has a small private balcony with ashtray to access. When you arrive to your room you will find two complementary bottles of water on the desk. They offer free wi-fi and basic cable. There is a fitness room too I think but I never accessed it. The staff is hit or miss. Some of them are friendly and some of them are pretty cold/unfriendly but all of them are professional and will do what they can to meet guest's needs.
I ate breakfast in the restaurant only a couple of times - when I didn't feel like Tim Horton's across the street. The food is just mediocre, nothing to write home about.
If you want a clean, comfortable, and safe home away from home in Vancouver then Park Inn is a solid bet. -

WARNING: If you are booking this hotel via http://priceline.com, make sure you get the room that they offer you on your online deal! My co-worker and I stayed here on business and like wide-eyed noobs, we failed to compare the agreement we received to what we actually ended up getting. So instead of getting a "king bed and view of downtown vancouver," we were housed in rooms with two doubles and a view of the "Mary Pack Arthritis Centre" lovely.
This isn't the hotel's fault. Just make sure to be more thorough when you book through discounted travel options. For the record, the place was decent- certainly get what you pay for. Each room comes with a fridge, and microwave. They refill your supply of bottled water daily with maid service which was useful. It's just a 5 minute cab ride downtown. If cabs aren't your thing then the subway is a good three blocks away. If a traveler was seriously considering staying here, I'd give them a green light based on my experience. Just make sure you get that view of Downtown. -

The Park Inn has its pluses and minuses. The pluses are that the front desk staff were all very friendly and available. The same with the housekeeping staff. The hotel has a bus stop right in front and across the street and it is an easy 4 block walk to the Skytrain - public train transportation. From the Park Inn to the Airport is about 35 minutes or less, total. From the Park Inn to the Waterfront is between 15 - 20 mins and is $2.50 one way. The room was OK and clean. There are a lot of reasonably priced restaurants very near, a large Walgreens/CVS type store across the street and a couple of fast food places (Tim Horton's and Wendy's).
The minuses are that the hotel has a bit of a worn look. The carpet in the meeting room needs replaced and the air conditioning wasn't working so there were several fans which helped a bit but made in noisy. Overall, I'd give it a 3-4 out of 5. The location was great and for Vancouver the rate was OK ($145 per day with tax). There is onsite parking, but I didn't use it as I used public transportation without any issues at all.
