Stayed first week in December just for 1 night..22 floor great view beds were
comfy front desk staff very friendly breakfast wasn't great but quick if your on
the run perfect location for shopping walk to everything shopping at night we
felt safe on the streets only negative was the parking lot was a public lot 15
dollars a day and we didn't feel safe in there after dark.. good value rooms
were clean small fridge I did notice the walls seem quite thin we could hear the
neighbors showering and using the biffy. Might stay again but I do prefer a
little more luxury when its a girls getaway.

We stayed at the blue horizon hotel in November 2011. =The location was great
and there were a good choice of restaurants nearby. The staff at the front desk
were very helpful and the hop on and off trolley bus stopped right outside the
front door. The restaurant at the hotel was also very nice for breakfast and
reasonably priced as well.

I hate to be the spoiler or gadfly for Blue Horizon's rave reviews on yelp but
this needs to be mentioned. The hotel is very reasonably priced and includes
pool and cable flat screen TV. BUT, (this is very important), their erratic
internet service is dismal AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. 90% of hotels in Vancouver
have wireless capacity. BLUE HORIZON has archaic outdated cable service which
made me miss important Skype business internet calls. I was informed by the
hotel's maintenance guy that the Hotel's owner refuses to upgrade his internet
regardless of at least 2 outages a week. This review just might compel the owner
to resolve this issue for many business travelers who require DEPENDABLE
internet contact with their businesses. Hotel owners cannot afford to be a
"luddite" when it comes to hotel amenities. They will quickly realize a drop in
their occupancy rates.

We stayed two nights here, great rooms and super view. Ask to be upgraded, views
are special.
Staff wonderful. food super and pool lovely and quiet.
Can`t get anything more central, easy walking distance to stroll around the
beautiful west end.

Spent a week in Vancouver at a convention at Canada Place. Hotel was about a 20
minute walk from the convention and right on Robson Street. Right where all the
action is at night. Staff was friendly and helpful. Ask for a room from one of
the higher floors, the view is amazing. It was clean and bed was good. Pillows
were great and lots of them. Definitely would stay here again.

Stayed here in June 2011, before an Alaskan cruise. Had a huge room on the 28th
floor, 2 Queen beds great views of the city and beyond. No noise even though it
was during the Stanley cup final match !! Never thought the Canadians could be
so wild ! Crazy canucks.... Pity they lost ! ....Back to the blue horizon. I
agree that the check-in concierge desk can be very busy, when we were checking
in the staff member was trying to do 3 things at the same time which I think is
..just rude. There were constant queues at the desk 3 and 4 deep.
The breakfasts were great in the bistro outside, location was excellent within
walking distance of everything. The only other downside was the bathroom .. for
such a large room the bathrooms were v small and could do with a makeover. But a
good hotel and great location |
