Party central

Overall a ok stay. the parking garage is very tight, even with a short box pickup I was unable to turn through any of the corners without having to backup and reposition. It was also very noisy during the evening and night. Young adults slamming doors, yelling at each other, abusive language at 4 am. Could gave used some security on the 5th floor.

We enjoyed our stay here! The staff are wonderful and very friendly, made checking in and out a breeze! The noticeable thing that brought down the quality of our stay was the quality of the renovations around the hotel. In our room we found several areas where simple and low quality cover ups were made in an attempt to give the room a facelift. We found the shower floor was unstable, cutouts in the wall for lights and switches were sloppy, and baseboards were coming off the wall. As well, the parkade was under construction and made for a tricky time getting around. Overall, nothing that took away from a great stay in Vancouver!

Dumpster fire

This hotel needs a bulldozer , how many pubes can a person find in one 5sqft bathroom? Coffee spilled all over the wall , hair everywhere, the shower curtain doesn't stay closed. The patio door handle is ripped off , the “patio” looks like something from a 1960’s horror movie , does the city of Vancouver know about the height of the railing ? The carpet is peeling away from the walls accenting the biohazard material that is this whole hotel. Don’t get me started on the ceilings or molding windows. Do not stay at this dumpster fire , you will come out changed.

The Downtown Sandman is a very convenient, affordable option. It's right in the middle of the Cambie/W.Pender area, close to the SkyTrain, and not too far from the Waterfront. It's a great choice if you need to be downtown, but don't care to spend an arm and a leg. The hotel has everything you need, and is close to various eateries.

I like that if I just want to chill in my room, I can order a meal through room service. I also don’t have to bundle up due to the weather and walk down the street for a restaurant. It’s nice to just ride the elevator to the restaurant. What I don’t like is having to walk a block and a half in order to park our truck. Vancouver is not vehicle friendly unless you are in a small car/truck. Staff also need to make sure that they calculate the right number of nights for the parking QR code for the oversized truck user in the extra parking lot. We were caught up behind the blockade trying to leave, as the hotel didn’t set us up for 2 nights, just one night of parking for a two night stay.

I had a great experience staying at Sandman Hotel Vancouver Downtown! The hotel's location is unbeatable—right in the heart of downtown, making it easy to explore the city, visit attractions, and walk to Rogers Arena and BC Place. Whether you're here for sightseeing or an event, it's a perfect spot. The staff was friendly and welcoming, ensuring a smooth check-in and a pleasant stay. My room was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, providing a relaxing atmosphere after a long day. The bed was very cozy, and I appreciated the in-room amenities. One of the highlights was the on-site restaurant and lounge, which made dining convenient. The indoor pool and fitness center were also great additions, offering a chance to unwind. Overall, I had a comfortable and enjoyable stay.
