We stayed in the new tower at the River Rock this past weekend for a hockey game. The room was clean, nicely decorated a little on the small side, but comfortable.But the most annoying was the Canada Line coming and going outside our window. The sound at first we thought was a loud boombox stereo in a car every 3... More

This is fourth time in three months that I have needed a hotel convenient to the Vancouver Airport. The hotel is three or maybe four stops away from the Airport on the Canada Line Skytrain. This makes it exceptionally convenient as you don't even have to go outside to access the hotel. I found myself on my return, looking forward... More

You would not normally think a casino hotel would be a good choice for kids, but I have stayed at this hotel twice with my wife and two small children and it was great both times. The one bedroom suites are a good size and comfortable. If you get a suite facing the marina and river, the kids can watch... More

Check-in was great, room OK. Nice robes A distinct cigarette smoke smell permeates the premises, which is pretty odd for a new hotel in BC. Gambling and smoking I guess -- folks were smoking on-premises right outside the main entry doors. Coffee-maker unbearably lame -- cheapest of the cheap. Restaurant very nice, although a few too many over-priced (& over-hyped)... More

I was one of the first guests to stay in this hotel when it opened (in fact, they were still stocking the mini-bar in the room for the first time when I entered my room). I stayed there the first night they opened and several times since when I'm in Vancouver for business. Its definitively convenient to the airport (YVR).... More

This resort is just minutes away from the airport and has a Skytrain station for easy transportation downtown. We stayed in a 2 bedroom suite. The layout was great with the bedrooms on opposite sides of the spacious sitting area. Each room had a tv and a view of the river. The bathroom was quite roomy and well appointed. It... More

Spent 1 night in a 1 bedroom suite last weekend. The whole resort was very nice, and the staff was very friendly and professional. Room was spacious and so was the bathroom. Connected to the skytrain which is definitely handy for getting around. Free parking. I will definitely stay here again! More
