Our five night stay at The English Bay Inn was a pleasure. Our room was comfortable and clean, the breakfasts, prepared and served in an attractive dining room setting by Greg, the Innkeeper, were ample and delicious. We appreciated the friendliness and attention to detail that Greg continually provided. The location couldn't have been better--just two blocks from the beach... more

We spent 2 nights at the English Bay Inn with 2 other couples this month. The B&B is absolutely charming. There are lovely antiques, stained glass windows, and beautiful rooms. The "mysterious Greg" was a fantastic host! He served a terrific breakfast of fresh fruit, yummy scone, and an entree each morning. I have an allergy, and he prepared a... more

Staying at the English Bay Inn was just such a pleasure I can't think of staying anywhere else in Vancouver for future trips. After an arduous period of work I flew into Vancouver for a weekend getaway and effortlessly geared down the minute I walked in the door. Besides the great location in the center of town, in a charming... more

Our visit was terrific: location, personal attention, and charming decor. Never have we spent as much time lingering at breakfast due to the interesting conversations with Greg and other guests. This is facilitated by being seated at a large dinning room table as opposed to individual seating. Greg accommodated our schedule with breakfast timing, food choice and help in suggesting... more

I loved staying at this B&B. The owner cooked our breakfast to order each morning and was a wonderful source of information when we all asked about places we should see, and how to get to them. We lingered over breakfast, the food and conversation were so good. Quiet, safe, peaceful location in a residential neighborhood but so close to... more

We celebrated our 15th anniversary at the English Bay Inn. The host Greg took great care to make our stay comfortable and provided valuable information about area dining and entertainment options, and were given a map of the city. The breakfasts were tasty and timed just right. We were able to enjoy a morning run in nearby Stanley Park and... more

...once you get closer, the wrinkles, cracks and crevices appear. I've waited a bit to write this review as I wanted some time to think about whether or not my initial feelings were correct. But since they haven't changed, here goes. This is the first time I've been disappointed by TripAdvisor reviews. This place is simply overpriced for what is... more

January 2009 Vancouver, B.C Written by Annie My partner and I wanted to be tourists in our hometown. This included choosing a cozy and private Bed and Breakfast in the cosmopolitan West End of Vancouver. The English Bay Inn, with its lovely antique decor, and charming host Greg, were a delightful find! The service was excellent and the breakfasts sumptuous.... more

Its always a daunting task for the independent traveller to choose where to stay during a multi-location trip. Personal tastes, convenient location and budget all play a part in your decision. Get it right, and the rest of your party applaud you, but get it wrong and your holiday could be ruined. Fortunately for me, the English Bay Inn was... more
