Guest Reviews
- Tristan (5/5): - L'emplacement, taille de la chambre. Sombre. Vieillot. Équipements électrique limite.
- Carl (7/5): - The location was very good for our purposes.
The hotel was being renovated but this was not impacting to our stay.
There was no elevator or bell staff.
- Ying Fang (8/5): - The location is great, it's in downtown area. The facility does not have elevator
- audrey (8/5): - Le tres bon emplacement, la grandeur de la chambre, le prix et la gentillesse du personnel Le fait qu il n y ait pas d ascenseur et la télé ne marchait pas
- MARIA PAULA (7/5): - No tenia ascensor, pero estaba bien ubicado , bares y restoranes cerca, supermercados
- Teresa (8/5): - Everything Nothing
- Matthew (9/5): Great Value Just on the Edge of Downtown Vancouver - Windows that open. Good layout. Clean. Comfortable beds. Moderate walking distance to major attractions. Short distance to bus to Stanley Park. Window opened out onto Broughton St. and the Community Garden which I am sure is amazing in the Summer and Autumn. My stay was in May during planting season so the smell of manure would occasionally waft in.
- James (7/5): -
- luiza (9/5): Good stay - Great location and value - you can easily reach all Vancouver attractions from there by bus and train. Or you can walk, it is not that far from downtown, harbor and Stanley Park. Good restaurant next door for breakfast and lunch, close to other restaurants and shops on Barclay Street. Construction site - but they warn about it.
No elevator.
- Allan ROSS (1/5): Don't stay here! - There is nothing to like about this hotel. You should delete it from your list of Vancouver hotels. The building is old & not well maintained. The plaster on the room walls was badly chipped, bathroom vanity was rotting at floor level, air conditioning did not work, curtains were two different lengths & did not adequately cover the windows, there was no complimentary coffee or even a jug, there is no elevator & the stairs were steep.
- Dimitrova (10/5): - Big rooms, nice staff Location, big rooms, 24 h service
- Juan Pablo (9/5): - El hotel esta muy bien, esta en renovaciones en este momento.
- Brazier (10/5): -
- TAKAKI (6/5): 普通 - 1.ロケーションが良かった。
2.チェックイン前に荷物を預かってくれた。 1.工事中で館内の経路が変わっていた。
- Marchisio (7/5): -
- Hans-Viktor (8/5): alle anforderungen wurden erfüllt - alles
- Lothar (5/5): Gute Lage, verbesserungsbedürftig Ausstattung. - Die Lage im quirligen Westend auf der Robson Street. Klimagerät im Fenster montiert, Betriebsgeräusch einer Flugzeugturbine, entweder schwitzen oder wach bleiben. Baulärm in der Nachbarschaft…
- Deivid Ricardo (8/5): perfeito e pratico - local muito bacana e a localização é ótima. Localização perfeita.
- Sofia (7/5): Location was great, they are renovating so hopefully all mattresses will be replaced - Location was great Beds need replacement can feel the springs
- Alan (3/5): - Location Do not stay in this hotel, it is a building site with un helpful staff and no facilities
- Robin (7/5): -
- Dragos (8/5): - Hotelul e amplasat aproape de centru și port Hotelul e în renovare, liftul nu funcționează
Nu sunt plase.la.ferestre
Instalatis de climatizare face zgomot
- Sasha (7/5): Worth it for the price - Great location, clean rooms and friendly staff Vending machine only dispensed room temperature water bottles and is cash only.
- Shaw (3/5): The hotel is not accessible. - Staff was very helpful. When I booked, I saw there was no elevator. I reached out to the peppery directly and requested a first floor room because my husband walks with a cane. I received an email assuring me I would have a room with "minimal steps." When we got there it turns out the hotel has NO first floor rooms. The minimal steps turned out to be a 15-step staircase! They're is nothing on the first floor except the check-in desk.
- NHAN (7/5): - Location is at the crowded street. Supply drinking water and the frigidaire for the guests
- Adrian Feng (9/5): - location noise
- Justine (10/5): -
- Jason (7/5): - The location was good and the room was spacious. The room never got cool using the window AC unit.
I received a message on WhatsApp from a random number. It seemed like an outside entity had access to my booking information and was phishing for my credit card information.
- Solal Pirelli (7/5): Decent quality for the price - Cheap, spacious Little noise insulation, not great water pressure in the shower (but the entire hotel seemed under renovations)
- Ticia (8/5): - My second time at The Barclay and another great stay. Comfortable clean room, quiet for sleeping. Great central location for walking & amenities. Skytrain for the airport a 20min walk away. Will stay here again!
- HSIANG LING (10/5): - Special thanks to the front desk for their excellent service. They helped resolve a room-change issue caused by separate bookings, allowing me to stay in the same room. It saved me a lot of trouble! No

- Sue (7/5): Clean but old. Good location - The location Very average. No tea and coffee and the fixtures and fittings are old. Renovations were in progress so noisey during the day.
- Carolin (5/5): Hotel mit guter Lage, für den Preis, den wir gezahlt haben, etwas überteuert. - Die Lage des Hotels ist top. Man erreicht alle Sehenswürdigkeiten und öffentliche Verkehrsmittel gut. Der Stanley Park ist nicht weit entfernt. Die Unterkunft war sehr laut, durch eine im Fenster eingelassene Lüftung. Das Zimmer war sehr altbacken.
- Caroline Lorigan (8/5): - The room was spacious. The hotel was under renovation during my stay and while there wasn't any noise, I dont believe it was mentioned when I was booking the hotel.
- Bruno (8/5): -
- Steve (4/5): When the renovations are done otherwise get a great price or avoid - Location The room was expensive run down dreary and awful. They are doing renovation
Luggage up stairs though staff helped
It’s just a room right
The location was perfect
- Sarah (8/5): Too short - Will b bck Everything
- Okochi (7/5): - 部屋の広さ、ロケーション 工事中でうるさい
- Pat (6/5): -
- Phil (9/5): Vancouver value - Friendly and helpful staff. Extremely large room in our case. Good establishment next door for breakfast. Easy access to taxi to cruise ship terminal. Older tired decor in the section we stayed in. No coffee / tea facility.

- Sadey (10/5): -
- saori (7/5): -
- Ron (7/5): - Good location No facilities
- Pamela (10/5): Stay here it’s great…say hi to Bob! - I’ve been staying at The Barclay for thirty five years..it is my home away from home when i visit Vancouver for an event.I always enjoy a catch up with Robert the best concierge in Vancouver and the convenience of the location makes everything I do walking distance. I am not a fan of the new entrance …so tacky..what a shame to ruin the appeal of an old European style grand dame of a vintage hotel.
- Peter (7/5): We love the location and the price and the cleanliness. Nice new bathroom! - The Barclays is in a perfect downtown location and the price is right. The room was very clean. The hotel is a bit tired as it is quite old. However, it is being renovated, so that is good.
- Florian (8/5): -
- Kumar (10/5): -
- carolardilla (8/5): Bom - Tamanho do quarto, conforto da cama e localização.
Instalações, apesar de antigas, eram bem funcionais.
Bom custo-benefício em Vancouver, onde as hospedagens são bem caras. Inexistência de café da manhã e elevador.
Tive um pouco de dificuldade de entender como o chuveiro funcionava rs.
- Polivchak (9/5): - Very good location, close to Stanley Park, different shops, and cafés. The staff were friendly and welcoming. I enjoyed my stay and would recommend this place.
- Mitchell (7/5): Good location to get to shops and restaurants in Vancouver. Staff were friendly - Walking distance to shops and things to do.
For the price the rooms was pretty decent so can’t complain
- Roger (8/5): -
- Sayuri (7/5): バークレーホテル3泊の感想 - スタッフは親切でよかった。道案内やタクシーの手配もすぐにやってくれた 毎日ベッドメイクやタオル交換はやってくれたが、多分床掃除がいまいち。なぜなら持って来たスリッパの裏に髪の毛やゴミがたくさんついていたから。
お湯を沸かすポットがあればよかった。
- Robert (10/5): -
- Guest (8/5): -
- macarena ignacia (7/5): Good location - The receptionist really nice and friendly he even curried our luggage , as the building doesn't have lifts my fault I didn't check it before .
Is a small hotel so is not really fancy , but is worthy for the money spend honestly nice location and nice staff , of course if you are not looking for a fancy hotel this one is perfect for a short stay . The building is a bit old however is ok for the price .
- Gillian (10/5): - Huge room for a great price. Very comfortable and beautiful! Theres nothing I didn't like
- Sue (7/5): -
- Dwayne (8/5): -
- Vadym (4/5): -
- Paul (8/5): I don’t think it was exactly what I paid for. - Location and price There was no lift and not even a hot water jug or tea & coffee etc, just a frig and 2 glasses. The room layout was a bit different.
No pre booking advice that the hotel was undergoing some construction upgrades.
- Jacquie (5/5): Cheap, good location - Location It felt unclean. Had a bad smell in the room. We moved one of the beds and it looked like it hadn’t been vacuumed under the bed for years. Understand that the hotel is in renovation though so I hope in the future this would be cleaner?
- Daria (6/5): - Friendly staff, great location Loud construction (even on Sunday), lack of free parking, very old furniture
- Kilien (10/5): - Parfaitement bien situé. 10mn du park, 10mn du centre. Chambre très grande. Femme de ménage très sympa.
Les travaux ne nous ont pas plus dérangé que ça. Rien
- Layth (7/5): -
- Calista (10/5): -
- Chris (7/5): Overall ok - Parking is limited and expensive. If you are planning on parking overnight on the street in front of the hotel make sure to check your parking ticket receipt. I paid with debit tap and assumed it was paid. Unfortunately the tap payment didn't go through ( unbeknownst to me) and i had a $46 city of Van ticket on my windshield. Not pleased..!
- Sheila (9/5): -
- Jiri (9/5): Doporučuji, čisto,teplo, za rozumnou cenu, kamkoliv za pár minut - v docházkové vzdálenosti 15min do centra,na pláž,
lednička na pokoji, hned vedle hotelu perfektní snídaně!! - není rychlovarná konvice na pokoji ..
- Watts (6/5): - It was close to downtown Beds are little bit to small
- Maxime (9/5): -
- Kennedy (5/5): You get what you pay for - Location Receptionist was unhelpful. The room smelled and had no facilities.
- Gabby (4/5): - Front desk attendant who checked us in and out was extremely rude. Not friendly or welcoming at all.
- valerie (9/5): -
- Wayne (5/5): Except for parking, it was excellemt. Wayne - We love staying at the Barclay Hotel but we must have a parking spot. The lady at 9am when we were checking out, I asked abvolut a parking spot since we arrived late the nite before 11pm, the spots were all taken. I asked if I could move my car from the street to the back and she said I should just park on the street.
- Keith (4/5): -
- Suleman (8/5): -
- Michael (8/5): I was happy to stay there and will stay again. - Everyone was very friendly and accommodating. Nothing negative to say.
- Michael (9/5): -
- Santa Berenice (9/5): -
- Anne (9/5): Great stay in downtown Vancouver. - This property was a delight. It was so well located we could walk everywhere. While it was older it had a certain charm. We were very happy with our room and while there was a certain amount of street noise, within the building it was quiet. The only thing that was lacking was a microwave although there were so many restaurants around perhaps it is not necessary.
- 水泉 (7/5): - 地點 房內只有一張椅子
- Luisa (8/5): - I like the location, excelente locarion. The room was very big they did the bed every day. Staf nice. The carpet in the room had a strong smell.
- Conor (8/5): - WiFi did not work in our room
- Sue (8/5): Would have been very good apart from that unit - Good position
Good value for money The air conditioner in our room made a terrible noise. Drive is crazy until we found the source of the noise and unplugged it!
- Carole (10/5): Good Value and Good Location - The room was clean, spacious and very quiet. I had a good night's sleep on a comfortable bed. I like that the hotel is right next to a Cora restaurant - it's handy for an early breakfast. No complaints at all.
- Janina (9/5): -
- Sarah (9/5): Too short -
- BOG82 (8/5): -
- Supat (7/5): - Room was clean but but old. Bathroom was remodeled and nicer than the room. Location is good and worth of what you paid for. Room is bit older than expected.
- Paul (9/5): - Friendly staff and great location. Rooms were very clean and a good size. Close to shops and restaurants. An elevator may have been beneficial but it was no big deal.
- Bhupinder (6/5): - There was bad smell of kind of old wood and it was so suffocated
- msken (8/5): Great location for both sightseeing and business - The hotel is right on Robson Street, surrounded by shops and affordable international restaurants. It’s well connected — bus stop right outside and train station nearby — and just a 15-minute waterfront walk to the convention center. The front desk staff were very friendly and lent me an umbrella for my entire stay, which was a lovely touch. The elevator was out of service due to renovations, which was inconvenient. The room had a fridge but no electric kettle.
- Catalin (9/5): J'ai apprécié mon séjour à l'hôtel Barclay et j'y retournerai si l'occasion se présente. - Studio spacieux, propre, avec bonne literie et sans nuisances sonores (malgré des travaux de réfection en cours). Emplacement à 20 minutes à pied du centre de congrès. Personnel agréable. Petit frigo disponible dans le studio, ce qui est très appréciable. L'éclairage de la chambre n'est pas suffisant à mon goût, j'aurais préféré des ampoules plus puissantes au plafond.
Si possible, prévoir une petite lampe sur le bureau, ce serait un grand plus.
Idéalement, disposer d'une petite cafetière dans la chambre serait appréciable.
- Graham (8/5): - Good location in the shopping area and only a short bus ride to downtown No lift
- Heidi (8/5): -
- Crystal (8/5): It was okay - The cleaning staff were absolutely amazing! Didn’t like that they wouldn’t let us listen to music in the early afternoon that wasn’t even loud. Was a bit frustrating.
Also didn’t like that there is no elevator.
- Melinda (8/5): Good value and location - The room was spacious, it was in a good location and the twin double beds (appreciated as travelling with my adult son) were comfortable. It smelled strongly of cigarettes. We aired the room out which helped a lot.
