This was a better deal than staying at either Jericho or SameSun hostels. It can be difficult to find a quiet hotel room anywhere in Vancouver, but THIS IS IT! Finally a place where I can sleep like a baby without hearing a party going on in the street below. The bed was comfortable, the room was clean, the shower... More

I got a room on the first floor and it was nice, clean and comfortable. I used the shared shower (which no one ever used but me it seems!) but had a toilet and sink in my room. The toilet was a convenient suprise as I payed for only the basic room. It was also more reasonably priced as I... More

We had a brilliant stay at the Buchan. Staff friendly and helpful, very knowledgable about the local area and even allowed us to extend our stay by an extra night. The front room is full of pamphlets, maps and information about what to do in Vancouver. The staff were available 24 hours a day and were always polite. Our room... More

This place was great! I felt like I was staying in a piece of history. The room and hotel itself is very basic and old, but well maintained and very clean. It also has an exceptional location in the best neighborhood in Vancouver. More

No elevator! Not even one! There are also stairs leading up from the street to the lobby. No ramp. Just a note that may be important to some travelers. By "shabby," I mean the furniture is really old, and was not great quality to begin with. Think: chain motel style. However, the bed was firm, the pillows were acceptable, and... More

Stayed there for one night only, thank goodness. We had what was called an executive double room for $154. For the price, I expected better accommodations. The beds were horrible. You could almost feel the springs through them - that's how old they must have been! Also, our private bath was SO small, that nether my husband nor I could... More

I stayed at this hotel several times and have always had a pleasant stay. This is your typical european style hotel. There are no frills but just the basic necessities that a normal hotel guest needs. I've stayed here several times over the years and have always had great iteractions with the staff. They have always been very accomodating. Two... More

The Buchan Hotel was very conveniently located and in a quaint, lovely neighborhood. We walked and took buses everywhere! The downstairs living room was big and cozy with tea and coffee available all day long. The staff was friendly and very helpful in answering questions about Vancouver and its sights. The rooms were very basic, but clean, with shared toilets... More

I spent 5 days at the Buchan in July- what I liked was its location - its easy to walk to Stanley Park in one direction and to the central part of the city and harbourside on the other. Despite being very central its down a side street which means that its quiet. Staff are friendly and the room was... More
