Hotels near Vancouver Coal Harbour Seaplane Base - CXH, Vancouver

A lovely place to explore , nice weather during in the month of April and explore all varieties of food. Corniche side was amazing. People from airport up to hotel very accomodating and friendly. Looking forward to visit again .

North Vancouver is a lovely area just across the bay from Downtown Vancouver. Easy access across the bay via the regular ferry gives you the best of everything. North Vancouver seems a nice safe neighbourhood with a nice choice of bars and restaurants. You also have easy access to the hills and mountains where there are some great walks and stunning scenery.

A beautiful city that is easily walkable and felt very safe. Close to the mountains the scenery is stunning. We ate at Cactus Club cafe by the harbour which was lovely, Coras for breakfast which is a diner style, the food was plentiful and very delicious and Joeys which was nice enough but service not great. Lots to see and do we enjoyed an evening stroll along the harbour front and hired bikes to cycle round Stanley Park and to Granville Island (cycle lanes everywhere so very easy to do). We were only there for a couple of days before and after a cruise but would definitely visit again.

I've stayed here numerous times before and was surprised to be booked in a very small basement bedroom . There was no air conditioning in the room but only an open basement window. Not impressed considering the number of previous bookings. Otherwise the facilities met with our previous expectations. lovely view and great kitchen facilities with several breakfast options.

We used the hop on hop off bus one day to get around which was easy and you could easily know when the next bus would arrive. Apparently over 50% do not have English as their first language so some people had trouble understanding us, so we just spoke slower. We loved Stanley Gardens, the Steam clock, the Architecture and amazing mountains in the distance. We mainly ate at the Inn where the food was delicious. Is was sad to see the homeless people though and one chap in particular who was bent over in half and had to stop every 100 meters or so to rest.

For a quick staycation we had friends coming from the island as well as the valley and decided North Van would be a good middle distance. We had few expectations and assumed we would be shopping and sipping drinks with good friends. It turned out that it was very easy to get around between sea bus to down town and bussing up to the parks. The shipyards area and lower lonsdale is rich with great little stores and non-chain restaurants which was such a treat.
