“Best Western Plus Sands enjoys a location that simply works. Right in the West End, it's an easy jump to English Bay Beach and Stanley Park, perfect for families who want a mix of city and seaside. I particularly like that the hotel hasn't sacrificed character for convenience; that sunken bar is a nice touch.”

The Best Western Plus Sands stands out for its fantastic location, near both Stanley Park and the beach, with a bus stop right outside for easy access around the city. Many guests appreciate the convenience of having restaurants and supermarkets like No Frills and Safeway within walking distance. Rooms often include a microwave and fridge, which guests find useful; however, some past guests have mentioned occasional issues with noise. The attached pub with great food is also a commonly enjoyed amenity.

a balanced stay overall

convenient locationwalking pathscoffee makernoise issuesbroken heaterthin walls
the location was very convenient to english bay. i found it easy to access stanley park (i did enjoy the walking paths). my room included a coffee maker (i really appreciated having it in the morning).
the room i stayed in had some noise issues from the neighbors. the heater wasn't working properly either (it was a bit of a nuisance). i asked the manager about moving, but he initially claimed there were no available rooms. the walls seemed quite thin, and i could hear cleaning staff early in the morning.

the location is great near the beach and lots of restaurants! transit buses stop right outside, so getting around is easy. the breakfast at 'the park' below was delicious, a real treat. the room had a nice balcony, with some sea views that i really liked.
the hotel is a bit older, though it's well maintained, and i noticed a small stain on the carpet.
