Horrible service - user review The hotel itself was reasonable quality and cleanliness. However, the hotel staff was not 3 star quality. They did not do a good job of making you feel welcome. The hotel's website stated they had a 24 hour concierge, but we found out this just consisted of the front desk staff. We had asked the sta... epinions.com
Plaza 500: Nice Rooms for Reasonable Prices - user review Vancouver BC is a treasure cove of gastronomic delights. A couple of weeks back, when my husband and I had a craving to eat at one of our favorite restaurants called Vij's, we decided to drive up to Vancouver. Not w... epinions.com
Good value/ location - user review Considering the prices of other Vancouver hotels, this offers the best bargain around. Everything else in this price range seemed to be out by the airport or in some tumble down two star dump. To be sure, it's not the most glamorous hotel you'll ever stay at, (the pictures of the exterior on expedia... expedia.com
Surprised by lack of services available - user review Stayed at the hotel for a Dragon Boat festival. Could walk to the event = good. Soaking wet clothes afterwards and hotel did not have any washers or dryers = bad. Staff suggested we take them several blocks to a coin laundry. No food on site had to walk outside and around the corner to dark, windowl... expedia.com
Pleasant hotel but getting tired. - user review The hotel is a little out of the downtown area but still easy access to downtown via courtesy bus.

An average place to stay - user review The hotel was not as nice as I had anticipated it to be. The restaurant was closed for renovations and the rooms were a little on the shabby side and if you are on the lower floors very, very noisy, as the hotel is located on the intersection of 2 busy streets. On the plus side the staff couldn't be... expedia.com
Plaza 500 - user review The hotel was ok. The restaurant downstairs was very expensive. You had to pay for internet every day. Room was ok. Best part about the hotel was the pub next door.

Location Location - user review They stated that they are just across from city hall, however city hall is not in the downtown area we were expecting it to be. So we had to use our car to go into downtown and see other sites. .In Vancouver BC we found that for our next stay we would like to try the area near Metrotown, there is a ... expedia.com
Not as advertise - user review This is not definetly 3 stars hotel. The bathroom is small and only one sink. The small mall is in front of hotel and convient. One front desk is very ruled to customers. This is not in downtown area. It costs $8.5/day for a couples to travels to and back downtown by bus. I would not recommend to st... expedia.com

No title - user review At first, the location threw me off. Because of the Olympics coming to Vancouver in 2010, a lot of construction is going on. They are building a subway from downtown to the airport. Traffic was quite slow around the hotel because of the construction and I sat in the cab for a long time. Otherwise, v... mytravelguide.com

No title - user review For the price I paid, it doesn't justify a 3 star hotel. Too far away from shopping district of Vancouver, small room and bathroom, hard mattress, no on site gym facilities, expensive parking, only allow lat... mytravelguide.com
No title - user review General, overall appearance of building, lobby, etc. was okay. It ended with the public spaces. The usage of room space was very poor. Opening the door put you at the head of the bed very uncomfortable sleeping with your head at the door. The bathroom was so small, you could not sit on the toilet wi... mytravelguide.com
No title - user review Good location with great potential. However the overall experience was negative, due to lack of information about facilities and arrogance of front desk staff.

No title - user review I was quite disappointed that this was rated a 3 star. It was really unclean. Carpets were dirty, the chairs were stained. Beds were defiantly not inviting, to say the least. Felt like I needed a shower after leaving there. Also there was a very loud humming noise all night long. The only thing that... mytravelguide.com

No title - user review It certainly was not a three star hotel. There were little or no amenities. There was not even shampoo in the room.

No title - user review It's very convenient for business travel for its location. However, it is super noisy even when I was staying on 15th floor.

No title - user review Lobby was very attractive and staff were extremely nice and helpful. Parking was a bit expensive, and the garage was VERY tight and extremely hard to maneuver, although valet was also available for the same price apparently (I did not use it). It was about $18CAD including tax to park, per day. The ... mytravelguide.com
No title - user review Most of the past reviewers for this hotel are right. If you go to the hotel not expecting much than its fine, but if you expect more from a 3 star you will be disappointed.

No title - user review The hotel itself was very nice, clean, and quiet. The beds were comfortable and it appeared that all rooms had a balcony.

No title - user review The plaza 500 hotel is nice, but you can do a lot better in Vancouver whether you are a tourist or business traveler. First, there are no attractions within walking distance of the hotel except a small shopping mall across the street. So if you're a tourist, be ready to walk an hour or pay for cabs ... mytravelguide.com
No title - user review The plaza 500 hotel was great. It was nice and conveniently located near downtown Vancouver. The staff and valet were both friendly and helpful.

No title - user review There was also construction going on inside the hotel at the time of check in that was noisy and did not leave a good first impression.

No title - user review This hotel was fine, but not a three star hotel. I think it is in need of some renovations. There is a great deal of construction going on around the hotel and we awoke early to tremendous noise on Saturday. The parking is stupid, and if you are willing to look, you can find less expensive parking i... mytravelguide.com

No title - user review This is definitely not a 3 star hotel. You need to change the rating as soon as possible! Maid service was absolutely terrible.

No title - user review This is not a 3 star hotel, I was very disappointed. Motel 6 would have been nice compared to this. Wall paper was coming off.

No title - user review Unpleasantly displeased with the hotel that was supposed to be, I believe, 4 stars.
