Empire Landmark Hotel And Conference Center - Vancouver

prima plek om down town vancouver te doen. Ook op fietsafstand van stanley park, fietsverhuur tegenover het hotel, zeer praktisch allemaal. Hotel is goede middenklasse, niks mee mee, ook niet buitengewoon goed, aardige en behulpzame staf. Prijs/kwaliteit ordentelijk. Een aanrader dus.

Het empire hotel is erg centraal gelegen aan Robson street en vlakbij Stanley park. Het uitzicht op de 42e verdieping (ontbijt/eetzaal) is geweldig!

Amazing view. Rooms were a bit dated. Revolving restaurant at top floor worth visiting. Great location. City tour bus stop is right outside. Price could have been a bit cheaper.

The staff was friendly, and if you want to check out Stanley Park the location was GREAT... however, we were paying way too much for the quality of the hotel. Everything looked like it was stuck in the 70s. It needed some upgrading for sure! The view from our room was lovely though! I wouldn't stay here next time... probably would spend a little more for a classier place.

While it's not a cheap hotel, compared to other (more expensive) hotels in the area, the Empire Landmark Hotel is a good value in a convenient and relatively quiet downtown location. The hotel and furnishings are definitely dated and not chic, but everything was reasonably clean and functional.

Gorgeous city views. Friendly and helpful service. Spacious rooms. 5 minute walk from downtown. The restaurant on the 9th floor is perfect for breakfast. The stay at the Empire Landmark made me wonder: why stay at expensive hotels paying three times more for the same experience? Recommended!

I would stay at this hotel again except for the overwhelming smell of bad air freshener in our room. It was so strong that we could taste it. The location near Stanley Park and Robson Street along with the fantastic views from every direction were a definite plus. We were on the 20th floor. We brought our bikes and the location was convenient to both Stanly Park and the seawall bike path to the False Creek/Grandville area. You must have a drink or dinner in the revolving restaurant up 43 stories on top to enjoy the view. There is no cover charge if you are staying a the hotel. The room furnishings. bathroom etc haven't been replaced since the '80s although the bed was comfortable and the duvet covers were new. The room was large too. The service was fine although we mostly had contact with the bell boy to get our bikes out of storage. He was great.

Clean spacious room with a beautiful view of downtown vancouver.

The Empire Landmark Hotel is in a great location along Robson Street in downtown Vancouver. It's an easy walk to downtown shopping, the waterfront, and Stanley Park. The view from the hotel rooms is exceptional. However, the condition of the rooms was disappointing. It appears that the hotel has not been modernized in over 20 years. The colors and furnishings were outdated and worn. When comparing the condition of the room to other similarly priced hotels in the Pacific NW, the Empire Landmark falls very short of memorable.

It's not the most modern of hotels, but at this price, who cares? The best thing about this place (besides the location and the great staff) is the view. We recommend a higher floor. You get a great view of the downtown area, and the surrounding mountains and water.

The hotel was decent, it just did not meet my expectations. It is a worn hotel, with chips and scuffs in the details. It was clean, and it had a fitness room and jacuzzi. We tried the breakfast buffet, and I did not think that the food was that good, and by the time I got to my seat with it, it was tepid at best. My expectations were higher because of the location, and because with the Olympics coming very soon, I would have thought they would be stepping up their game.

One ice machine for 42 floors. They lock the door at 10pm and you have to have security meet you to get ice!! The laundry and ice are in the same room and this is their way of preventing people from doing laundry after 10pm. After the big fireworks event they locked all but one entrance/door. Little quirky not-well-thought management decisions like that impacted the stay. All else was acceptable.

All was good till we checked out and had two parking tickets on my car. I paid to park at the hotel. I took both tickets to the front desk, one of the ticket was for Aug 1st the other Aug 2nd one for each day I had the car in the lot. We never took the car out of the lot. The hotel looked at both tickets and said one was not from the Hotels lot from some other lot. They took care of the one ticket but not the other.The tickets are all done on computer when they when to do the ticket they must not have cleared out the last address. Now I'm fighting with the parking company. Not good !

Good location, great views, close to shopping and transport.

I was staying in Vancouver for a friend's wedding and knew the downtown area well so knew that Robson Street was a good location, 10 minutes walk to English Bay Beach, and less than 5 minutes walk from the shopping district of downtown Vancouver. Parking is easy and seemed secure (though they repeatedly warned me not to leave stuff in the car), though costs a pricey $10 extra per day. The rooms are large though in need of a refresh (but apparently this is underway already), the aircon is marvellous, balconies look out over the City, Mountains & Harbour, Beach or Stanley Park/Lionsgate Bridge. Beds are large and comfy, with an OK bathroom. With a full on refit this place could be an amazing place. 2 issues: 1. front desk is INCREDIBLY slow, be prepared to wait in line for 10 minutes. 2. Internet service is superfast, but costs $14 for a 24 hour period.

The hotel was great. Huge room. Great location. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Great restaurants and stores in the area. Grocery also near by. Very close to Stanley park. The bike rental place a block down was great. It would be outstanding if the parking and business center were free.

I read lots of reviews before going there and was not expecting much. We booked it because of its location and view. We were at 30th floor and the view was spectacular. The hotel is kind of old and room very small but it is clean and cozy. The air condition worked. The ice machine is at 21st floor and closed after 10:30pm. I got my ice from the hotel staff at the lobby. You better set up your wake-up calls before 11:00pm because it took me 10 minutes to set it up after midnight. The restaurant at the top floor does not worth the money. If you have a higher-floor room, it does not add more view. The retaurant only rotates at night and for breakfast, it does not. If you like Chinese food, Hans within one block offers great great food and good price. I wish I had all my meals there. It has been there for 37 years and must did their cookings right.

Location on Robson Street is close to shopping and nightlife. The revolving restaurant at the top of the hotel has phenominal views.

We choose this hotel for the price. It was one of the cheaper hotels in downtown Vancouver. However, I wish we had spent just a bit more money for something much nicer. The room and entire hotel was very outdated. The bed was not comfortable and the room just had a dirty feel. One plus was that we were on the 24th floor and had a great view of the city. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone until they update the hotel and give it a modern feel. It's stuck in the 1970's and looks and feels that way. All the other reviews that say this, too, are right. Spend just a little more money and stay someplace else. I promise you won't regret doing that and can ensure that you will regret staying at this hotel. There weren't many restaurants within walking distance. The hotel's restaurant is very, very expensive, whether it's breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Stay someplace else.

We had a wonderful view from our room. The location of the hotel was perfect for shopping and sightseeing.

great view of bay and city

Perfect location, great view from the room and restaurant. Convenient parking, clean room

Our room was on the 27th floor and overlooked the northwestern end of downtown Vancouver along with Stanley Park. It was an absolutely gorgeous view! Breakfast was way overpriced for what you get, and the restaurant does NOT revolve in the morning.

I would definitely stay there again. The ONLY complaint I have is the room was way to deodorized with some stinky, smelly chemical.

The Empire Landmark is indeed a hotel that could stand a thorough renovation. Of course that would mean the price would escalate to cover the required costs. The cost can be considered low if in the mid60sUSD for the location but not the condition of a standard room. If you see it more than that, look elsewhere. Add another 10Can/night for parking if you have a car as it is NOT included despite what previous posts may have indicated. The location was good, the staff reasonable and attentive, the views excellent, the bathroom marginal. The area is walkable and most close by is trending toward Asian as is the hotel clientele. This is not the trendy/ritzy part of Robson street if there even is that anymore...

Great location, on Robson Street, great revolving restaurant, spectacular views. It was an older Hotel, but the room was clean and comfortable.

Stayed on the 24th floor looking out over the city, Stanley Park, the mountains...quite nice. There were a million neighborhoods within walking distance, as well as a beach. We were there in mid April and lots of trees and flowers were already in bloom. Room was clean and great maid service every day (don't forget to tip!). Had to pay to park but it was cheaper than any other comparable hotel. Cloud 9 is an awesome place to get a drink too.

This hotel has a wonderful view. I found everything met or exceeded my expectations.

Everything was pretty good. You should know that they keep prices down by charging for things that might be free at other hotels, such as wireless access in the room, and internet access in the business center. The hotel is surrounded by a lot of great restaurants.

The hotel provides simple adequate accommodation in a very good location at a good price. The staff were helpful.

I got a room on the 38th floor, facing north, which gave me an amazing view of West End and Stanley Park. The downside of having a room this high is that you have a long elevator ride, but it's worth it. The room was clean and serviceable. The business center in the hotel lobby provides two computers with Internet access. There is a fee to use these machines.

Really liked this hotel. Very simple, attractive modern room (did I mention simple? the decor was plain and tasteful. Not fancy or opulent. Very comfortable, convenient, well set-up, nice design.) No fridge by the way. Great little balcony and fantastic view. Super nice and helpful staff. Great location.

Good views (upper floors)Great location for downtown. Clean room. Beautiful city (even in the rain). Just like Seattle, felt right at home.

Old hotel, but clean and comfortable - I had a great view from my room. I stayed alone for business, but felt safe, and was happy that it was walking distance to a lot of great shops/restaurants. Can't beat the price!

Convenient parking. Dining and entertainment are close by. The view of the city, water, and mountians was excellent. Nice sunset! For the price I paid, I was completely satisfied and didn't feel ripped off.

The hotel is decent for the price (compared to surrounding hotels and rates). It is in a great location, within walking distance of many stores, restaurants, and neighborhoods. The rooms were older and showed signs of age, but had a great view of the city. If you're an easy-going traveler passing through or just there for the night, this is a good hotel. It sounds like they are doing some remodeling. With a couple of room updates this hotel could be fantastic!

The hotel is right in the middle of downtown Vancouver. The walk along Robson is amazing. The hotel is a bit old. However, the cleanliness and service is top notch. Especially, when I consider the value I got for the money, I am very pleased. The structure of the hotel is such that any room in the hotel gives an amazing view of the downtown. I would certainly recommend this to everyone.

Staff were customer service oriented and very helpful. We had a very early check out and needed to get to the airport immediately. They were expedient and made sure a cab (which could accommodate our oversized luggage was waiting. We had a high floor room with great views. Room was spacious and clean.

I booked this motel with blind expectations, but I was sincerely pleased with the comfort and cleanliness of the room. I don't think there's a bad view in the entire building. The beds were very comfortable. The restaurant on the top floor isn't open all day, so we didn't get to enjoy that. Also be prepared for a noisy night if its exceptionally windy outside. We were on the 33rd floor and we got a heck of a windstorm that night. But overall, I liked the motel and staff. I would definetly stay there again.

Pros: Great Views and good location. Cons: old hotel and FF&E

great location and very friendly hosts. access to vending machines was limited till 10 pm, so that was a bit of an issue. Otherwise it was a great stay, great view and very friendly and professional staff.

I had read some so-so descriptions about this hotel but I was very plesantly surprised by the friendliness of the staff, the quality of the rooms, the views and the overall experience, especially the rotating restauranton the 48th floor. Although this is not the Ritz for someone who wants good quality at a really good price this can not be beat. My rate through hotels.com was 1/4 the standard rate for the room and 50% better than the "conference" rate. Some people have commented on the elevators and wind noises. Come on! this building is very tall and it is vintage 1970's construction so the elevators are reliable but can be slow with lots of hotel traffic and you do hear the wind through the elevator shaft the same as any high rise. I truly loved the hotel. The maid service was prompt and effective, the area is really great cosmopolitan and in the center of the downtown close to public transport. Be sure to visit the restaurant at the top of the hotel for a sunset dinner. Average prices, good food and a view that can not be beat!

That's how they phrase it, and they're right. Pretty inexpensive room comparitively. Room amenities pretty basic, no fridge though, ice was on another floor. We were on the 27th floor (out of 43 I think), the view was awesome. Cityscape, snow caped mountains and a sea of water from our window. There's a restaurant on the top floor, supposedly revolves to catch the views as you sit. We went for breakfast buffet, decent for $14, no revolving but we walked around and took pictures.

It has a good location. Close to shopping and restaurants.

We had a nice stay, but the room felt a little cramped and dirty. The lobby looks very nice and the front desk staffers are pleasant.
