Best Western Plus Sands
What Guests Say
Bed very comfortable. Staff very helpful. We were upgraded to a King room due to availability and it was a very good size.

Super location in a trendy, lively part of Vancouver. I actually could see the harbor and bay from my room window. Numerous interesting restaurants and shops within a block or two. Short walk to the Hudson Bay shoreline park. Since the price was lower than most places, I was expecting a fairly rundown hotel, but was pleasantly surprised by the excellent condition and cleanliness. The staff was friendly and helpful. For example, my friend rode her bike over to see me, and they said it was fine for her to store it in my room while we walked around town.

The location was great and the bus stop was right out the front. Easy to get to on public transport from airpprt. The staff were lovely and helpful and gave us a room like we requested on one of the higher floors looking at the ocean side. The room was clean and the bed mattress was so comfortable. We love how it had a microwave and fridge.

Excellent location, comfortable bed and pillows. Nice staff. Just bring some earplugs if your facing the street. You get quite a bit of ocean view if your high enogh up, we were on the fourth floor.

The location is excellent on English Bay,very close to the beach and sea walk to Stanley park. Second beach pool is close by and there are lots of restaurants with beach views. Transit buses stop outside hotel and are able to take you downtown and to the SkyTrain stations. Check in was smooth and we arrived early and were able to pre check in and have our bags put in the room. Breakfast was delicious. A choice of meal and drink from the restaurant bar 'the Park' just below hotel. Room was clean and comfy and had a balcony onto Davie with some sea views

We have stayed at The BW Sands many times. It’s consistently clean, comfortable and the staff are always helpful.

It's in a great location, very close to English Bay and in walking distance of numerous places to eat. The room was large, clean and well appointed. The view from the room was also very good, the only negative is that to see the sea (the reason why we booked) you have to stand on the balcony and look hard right. There is living accommodation opposite so having the net curtains open for any length of time was not really very practical for the people opposite nor us in the hotel room. We ate there on two nights and found the food to be lovely - unfortunately, the same could not be said for one of the breakfast options - see below.

The location was incredible with the beach outside, great restaurants and bus station in front of the hotel. The hotel staff were also great and very polite.

The location is very good. It wasn't loud overall, though our room faced the busy street so might be something to consider during the busy seasons. The room was warm - a bit too warm for my taste and though I turned the thermostat down, couldn't get it below 75F - I sleep at 68F. Otherwise no issues. Wish parking was included but I understand it is not.
