I’ve stayed at many hotels in Vancouver over the past 30+ years. Most are one time stays, a few we go back to specifically. This is one we’ll use again. Central location, historic vibe, nicely appointed, restaurants onsite, reasonably priced. We had a king suite, set up with a sitting area and work space separate from the bedroom. The bathroom had double vanities, rain shower, and separate soaker tub. Furniture was dated and a bit worn, but otherwise tasteful. The staff were friendly and helpful, and I enjoyed chatting with them. It’s noisy outside, so if you’re not used to city life, you might want to look elsewhere. It didn’t bother us, and the location close to the theater cannot be beat. Walk to everything downtown, leave the car in the garage. For such a busy part of town, it was a surprisingly relaxing stay. Looking forward to our return.

Great hotel and staff, great location.

I arrived super late and the front desk clerk was so nice and helpful 20 stars for him!!

Angel was able to check us in a little early.

Right in the heart of downtown. We parked our car and didn't need it again for the rest of the weekend. Just a short walk to the stadium. Loved being in the hustle and bustle of the city. Just a block away from all the late-night restaurants and bars. Older building, very simple/basic hotel, but very charming and very well kept. The front desk staff had excellent customer service. Would highly recommend!!!

Great hotel and perfect stay before embarking on a cruise out of Vancouver

Delivered the comfort necessary.

Clean, safe and convenient place to stay in Vancouver. Easy walking distance within downtown and to Skytrain.

Good

Coveniently located from cruise port. Easy check in. We were allowed to checkin way before 3 pm. Very professional and friendly staff. Pleasanr room with all basic amenities.

Cozy and charming

Great location

Outdated property with 1 pantry sized elevator (4 people max). Staff were friendly and helpful. But rooms are outdated. Looks like a computer monitor for a tv (thankfully we werent in the room long). Red painted walls, old double beds. It was clean, and the staff were helpful and pleasant, so that helped.

I luv luv luv The Moda! It's like staying at your best friend's place for the weekend.

Great staff, cute room

A well-maintained property with great staff. Cool location downtown. Squeaky floors and thin walls mean you hear other guests quite a bit, but otherwise a very nice stay.

Friendly customer service

Convenient location

Convenient location,quick check in

Kind staff, great location.

Second time staying here, will definitely be a third. Friendly staff, convine

The only bad thing is there is no pool and a little noisy at night. (Street noise) The room and staff make up for that.Loved the sports bar with happy hour food. Shopping malls within walking distance. Friendly helpful staff. Clean fluffy bath towels. Would stay here again.

Staff at the hotel were friendly and the food at the lounge was very good. Excellent service

Centrally located; easy access via transit even from the airport. Lots of shopping and dining options nearby, no matter the hour of arrival. Within decent walking distance to BC Place and even to the waterfront.

The room was different with the picture. and smell whole hotel was bad. I upgraded my room when I get there, and they explained total 80dollars but they charged 95dollars on my creditcard.

Everything was just amazing and perfect for me

Great stay

It was amazing cute place

Booked the hotel as wanted to be in walking distance of the the Vancouver Orpheum. Didn’t realize Orpheum was right across the street…Great location to Robson St nice area felt safe

Floors creak when you walk on them, so it’s noisy if the person above you is walking around. Television was more like a large computer monitor. Bed was comfortable, but bathroom is old and could be updated with a new tub and sink/vanity.

A bit of an older property, but there is amazing staff that are super friendly and helpful. Perfect location to be able to walk to events in the downtown core.

Convince

Clean , quiet and hospitable

Great stay

Great friendly, helpful staff. Early check-in was fabulous. walking distance from downtown Events would stay again.

The Pics are Deceiving online!!! I check in just to see Carpet bubbling all over, the Bed looked Motel 6ish the Tub had to have come from a Prison Yard Sale!! Shower Head Was Dollarama Special and the Smell Was Old and Musty!!!! I Was Hotter than Fish Grease.. Not to Mention that Funky Chair in the Room.. Come On People Whats Up!?!? Allll Bad!! I WOULD STAY THERE IN SOMEONE ELSES BODY!! JUST SAYING!!! Felt Like the MOVIE HOSTEL !!! GOODBYE FOR NOW LOVEUP

Good times

Good times

Great location to stay after a downtown concert. Very convenient and basic accommodations.

We stay here every time we go to Vancouver ! The area is amazing and you can walk everywhere ! The staff is always friendly and they let us check in early ! I accidentally didn’t paste in the correct designated area for the hotel and received 2 parking tickets and the staff of the hotel call the the parking company and had my tickets revoked! We love this place ! It’s older and dated but it’s awesome there !

The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The hotel is OK, but I had a problem that my room was cold and the heat could not be adjusted. This was very uncomfortable for me.

Home away from home.

yes, services was very accommodating when it came to me needing to have one of the reservations canceled. The staff was very helpful when it came down to suggestions for things to do in the area.

Great location, close to everything. Staff are amazing!!

Great location, friendly staff, early check in, very walkable. Great 1 night stay at a reasonable price for downtown Vancouver. Would stay again.

Great spot..a little loud for my liking other then that great, clean, friendly...beds not so good.

Moda is small and comfortable. Well located for attractions and bus lines.

Did not receive a great experience

nice area

Big groups of 20 something year olds loitering in the hallway, felt like a hostel with private rooms

Cute boutique hotel

Nice property, newly remodeled. The room smelled like paint however which I'm sure will fade over time.

It’s was clean, quiet and reasonably priced. I would stay there again without question.

Very convenient location for downtown activities

We were very happy with the hotel. Very clean, staff was very helpful with every question we asked. Great location. Everything you could need so close by. Will definitely stay again

Although the building seems a little old, it was while worth it for the price that I paid for. It is situated in the heart of downtown Vancouver and nearby restaurants, making it walkable to various areas of downtown. Would definitely come back.

This is a cute, affordable hotel in the heart of the city. It's a heritage building so it has character and is not a cookie-cutter chain property. The staff were super friendly and I loved my room - it was well decorated and the space was perfect. The restaurant and bar were awesome too.

Little updates needed. But great.

Moda Hotel is in an old building that is nicely updated and right across from the Orpheum Theatre. There are multiple bar and dining options on the first floor. Parking and check in were initially confusing but well explained once we called the desk on arrival. The bathtub in our room looked like it has been through a lot with the bottom chipping, in a tight bathroom. But it was all we needed for one night. Nice to have a mini fridge in room and everything else we needed

Excellent location, staff are very friendly. Hotel is very clean. Recommend.

Staff was great, building is older but rooms were clean and area was quiet and safe at night.

Friendly staff, location was perfect for walking to many points of interest!

Staff was great and helpful. Good restaurants three blocks away. Fun walking around downtown. Room was comfortable with good coffee.

Very kind staff and comfortable stay. Thank you.

Great staff!

The hotel is in an older building, and the age can’t be covered up easily. Staff were extremely kind and helpful.

Everything was great! Only thing I'd say is parking is a bit tricky and a bit of a walk, we packed light so it wasn't bad. But I guess that's normal to expect for downtown Vancouver!

What a fun location to be in, you’re right off of shopping and party area. The hotel is old as it’s been around since 1904! So the building is old, which means you can hear everything. People walk, music from the room, etc. we were luck to be in a bigger suite and loved it. The windows open up to let in a lot of fresh air, the street below is a loud one so if you’re looking to sleep at an early time on the weekend, drown out the sound with tv or earplugs. The vibe inside is so cute and the staff are knowledgeable on things to try. We unfortunately had some used items (slippers) in our room which wasn’t nice to feel but they quickly corrected the issue. The plumbing is old so the toilet isn’t equipped for heavy use, so keep that in mind. But overall I would stay here again for the price and location, everything is a minimum of 15-20 min walk. We loved it and can’t wait to visit again soon!

Staff were helpful and polite and the hotel was excellent value for its location.

I had to wipe everything before I sat down. Carpet was sticky and left my shoes on the whole time. Tv didn’t work. AC didn’t work. Loud people in the rooms beside and above. Great place for location, and just over $200. Bed was clean, but nothing else was. (Toothpaste in sink, hair on things, visible mystery splashes on walls and switches)

Everything was very clean, bed was comfortable and front desk was always nice

The property is basic and met our needs. It was not a bad stay. But, it is an older property and could use some refreshing. Most frustrating was the lack of ability to control temperature in our room. It was unexpectedly warm for the season, so the room was hot & stuffy. Our only option was to open the window, which then brought in the sounds of a busy nightlife outside. Staff was a bit aloof.

Walkable

We had a great stay and the staff were wonderful. Was great location. We will come back for another stay.

It was clean and the beds were comfortable

Strategic location

Great location, accessible to public transport, food and shopping!

The moda is conveniently situated, and very funky / cool characteristic decor.

We enjoyed our stay. The staff was lovely and super helpful. The room, while smaller than a chain hotel, was well appointed and comfortable. Parking takes a bit of coordination, but with guidance from the front desk, it goes soothly. Our only quibble is the mattresses are a bit too firm.

This hotel’s conveniently located a block away from the end of Robson St. Lots of food and shopping around. Granville island was easily accessible by bus; bus stop was a couple blocks away. However we wanted to use the mini fridge in our room to store some stuff but it smelled really bad. We also couldn’t get our air conditioning to work so we had to open the windows or else it was too stuffy. Because we had to open our windows, it was very noisy throughout the night. Though we didn’t call the staff for help with air conditioning (we were exhausted from travelling the whole day), I’m sure the staff would’ve helped as they seem friendly and approachable.

Staff are always so friendly and helpful. Good location to get to Roger’s Arena. Great price point for what we need.

Stayed here mostly based on price. Parking situation is a bit complicated. Give yourself a lot of extra time to get in and out of parking if you are using their parking option. While inexpensive, the cost in time is not negligible. Room was very basic, on smaller side. Has European vibe to it. Doors still use magnetic cards. Not sure if that matters from a security perspective, but it is almost like receiving a physical key for a room, which is unusual these days. Only real complaint was that HVAC seemed to not work as expected. Room was too warm. AC didn't work, might have been seasonal thing. Other than that, can't think of anything really wrong with the place, but it felt a little suss as the kids like to say. It had a slightly Barton Fink meets contemporary European vibe. IF you need a cheap place to stay in DT Vancouver, go for it, but if you are sensitive to quality, probably want to spring for something a little higher priced. Lots of casual food in area. Seems to be a music / club district. Young vibes.

Friendly staff, terrible property

The staff we talked to, were amazing, but the good experience stopped there. We were placed right beside a wooden staircase that was terribly noisy, the whole building sqeeks and there is absolutely no sound proofing. While staff was cleaning the room upstairs, it felt like the roof was coming down. The building is old, not kept up and stinks. The bathroom and the bed was clean. I've cancelled my next stay.

We'd definitely consider this place next time. We did a lot a walking around , rented bikes at Stanley park went to the theater - a very convenient location. It wasn't the Fairmont but quite nice for the price. Staff was top notch.

Very close to everything. Traffic noise is noticeable.

It was in great spot for what we had planned, however was quite disappointed when we couldn’t even fully open the door to the room due to the non spacious bed arrangements. On top of this the dirt on the blinds and decaying bathtub.

The bed was hard and it was hot in the room.

Staff was very good. The hotel smells like mold and decay. The floors are slightly tilted and creaky. Carpets were very dirty. Furnishings and bed are old and of low quality. The bedding was clean but of the lowest quality.

good experience and good service

Lovely hotel with very helpful staff. Everything was clean and exceeded expectations. Parking was provided at an extra charge in a parking garage just across the street, which was very easy to access. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely book another stay here in the future!

a treasure

fast check in very helpful front desk staff great room excellent location always a great stay

The property was clean and hard character. Room was clean and staff was friendly and helpful. Great location for walking downtown. Would definately stay again

Moda hotel is a great stay if you're in Vancouver for a weekend getaway. The location is great! You're in the heart of downtown with an ease of transportation to your next stop. Wether its by foot, train, bus, you name it! You'll be there in no time. It will definitely stay on my radar for any future visits to Vancouver of mine.

Nice boutique hotel, room was clean and it was in a good location

Good

Kind staff and great neighborhood!

Great affordable stay

This property is exactly how it reads, it's a simple fairly clean boutique hotel. The building is old, has been updated but the updates are showing some wear. Overall great location, easy stay. This is not a luxury property but perfect for young travellers or a quick business trip with one or two night stay.

Great staff and location. Clean rooms and quiet

So helpful

The location was very good and the staff was very helpful. The front desk gave us an umbrella and useful directions. They also noticed my hands were full and helped with the elevator. We will be staying here again!

Excellent location! Easy to walk in any direction Downtown. Friendly service.

My friend and I stayed 2 nights at Hotel Moda and were delighted by the location. There was easy (walkable) access to fun sites and great restaurants in all directions. The staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel has a lot of character as an old building, which is what we were going for. Yes, the elevator might be a little slow and the parking a little inconvenient (as other reviewers have pointed out), but it wasn't a problem at all for us. We would definitely stay there again.

Really nice clean hotel and the staff are friendly and helpful. Good location in downtown Vancouver

This hotel is close to many venues. We went to The Vogue from here and it was less than a 2 minute walk. There was parking nearby in a parkade. It isn't large, and lots of twists and turns to get to the hotel's space, but it was close and secure. It was nice to have dining options in the hotel too. We both thought the bed was too firm for our liking, but for a one night stay that was so convenient for our venue, this was fine. The hotel staff were SUPER helpful and kind.
