Top hotels in Vancouver Waterfront
AC Hotel Vancouver Waterfront
The website image of the room is way nicer than the actual rooms. The bathroom door of the room doesn’t close and give privacy in the bathroom. The sink was really shallow and made it splash everywhere and it was all wet because there is not a fan just a constant fan on.

The Paramount Hotel
The staff was phenomenal and the property was very clean and modern. Definitely would book again.

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Portland
The hotel lobby is great! The room was clean and comfortable. If I want to be picky, I can say that the fitted sheet had a little hole , and the bottom drawer of the credenza wasn’t latching and kept opening.which could be a hazard. Both things, easy fix and did not affect my experience
