Read it your way
The Hyatt Regency Vancouver is a high-rise downtown hotel located within walking distance of CF Pacific Centre and the harbor. It delivers reliable service, exceptionally fast computerized elevators, and expansive mountain and city views from higher floors. However, guest rooms show their age with dim living area lighting, occasional loose carpet staples, and sound leakage through connecting room doors. 26731

What travelers noticed
- The central downtown location earns high marks for walkability to CF Pacific Centre and easy access to the waterfront. 3828
- Guests frequently highlight the upper floors and the 29th-floor lounge for panoramic views of Downtown Vancouver, the harbor, and surrounding mountains. 2317
- The computerized touch-screen elevator system is widely praised for eliminating long waits in a busy high-rise tower. 26
- Most visitors report sleeping very well on plush Hyatt Luxury Pillowtop mattresses paired with effective overlapping blackout curtain tracks. 319
The catch

- Some guests like the clean vanities and rain showers, but others complain about ceiling-embedded showerheads wetting hair and awkward bathtub configurations. 131
- Hyatt award redeemers call the hotel an excellent value on points, whereas cash-paying guests often find the room rates steep for an older property. drawn from the full read

- “At the Hyatt Regency Vancouver my award booking was confirmed into a parlor suite which was really two adjoining guest rooms. The second room just had a sofa bed instead of a bed. So it was effectively booking two rooms for the price of one, and my daughter got her own room. Perfect - since she goes to bed before we do, and gets up after us.” 9
- “We stayed here a few years ago before our Alaska cruise. I love the points price and the proximity to the cruise port.” 5

- “as you come inside the room this is a room with two double beds traveling princess enjoys these beds so does topher” On camera74:14
- “The main area of the room was pretty good size.” On camera273:17
- “coming back into the room just on the other side of the room we have a nice desk i like this desk because you can see the view you can see into the room it's got a nice lamp here you can make phone calls and it's got a nice little power bank right here so you can plug things in keeps the top of the desk clean” On camera74:44
- “There is a small kitchen with a bar and three stools. There is a dining room table with 8 chairs. There is also a small desk. Colors are dull but seating is comfortable.” 18
- “The most annoying parts of the suite, however, were that the bed wasn't particularly comfortable (although I don't mind firm beds, this was definitely not on par with a Heavenly Bed) and that there was some stupid white "shelf" at its foot.” 13
- “For me, the standard suite has been a bit silly. It's a wholly separate/connected room. I've used it zero times in a week. Could see it being very nice for a family or someone who otherwise would really benefit from wholly separate space.” 6
- “The highlight of this room undoubtedly lies in its balcony, accessible through expansive floor-to-ceiling windows that slide open.” 12
- “My friend did note that the Keurig coffee machine in the kitchen was a bit below what he might've expected for a Downtown Vancouver presidential suite, and that Nespressos should be the minimum requirement for a residence of this calibre.” 12
- “The closet was plenty big, with a couple of robes (we didn't use them).” 1
- “I personally like when there's additional seating in a room and the chair was comfortable to lounge in and watch TV or to work in.” 3
- “My recollection is that the club lounge, when open, is on a very high floor with a nice view, including an outdoor balcony space to sit down.” 5
- “Personally, I'd love to see them get rid of the Keurig and add a Nespresso instead. If they keep the Keurig, I'd like to see them provide instructions for how to use the Keurig! There are none on the machine or on paper anywhere. Am I supposed to drain the brewer before I start.....no clue. Too many buttons and little working knowledge can make for a big coffee mess.” 23
- “Next to the TV is a functional desk with lamp. It worked for what I needed to do.” 1
- “Great hotel on the 31st floor with lovely views of the mountains in the background of gleaming downtown Vancouver. Clean and comfortable with a king bed and lots of space.” 17
- “The King room with balcony was impressive, not fancy, but a spacious and well maintained room.” 26
- “Standard rooms are on the smallish side at 380 square feet.” 5
- “The layout of the bedroom in the Executive Suite was one of the strangest I've seen because of one odd feature. The bed has a side table that is VERY close to the closet. It's a small closet to begin with. The safe is on the top shelf of the closet and all the way to the left. It's a very tight squeeze even for someone lean like me, to open the closet door and use the safe.” 23
- “It would later turn out that the Discovery Suite is the Hyatt Regency Vancouver's unpublished presidential suite, which isn't even publicly listed on their website. It was certainly very generous of the hotel to upgrade us to a top-tier suite, entirely unprompted.” 12
- “The Junior Suite has two bathrooms, both with a single sink and both with a tub over-head shower combo. One bathroom is just off the counter minibar area in the living quarters and the other bathroom is in the bedroom around the corner from the bed. I prefer this set-up and like it much better than the Executive Suite bathroom set-up.” 23
- “Excellent lighting in the Junior Suite bedroom. Door connects to the living room.” 23
- “The property has rooms facing city, mountains and the sea - in my case a balcony that overlooked all three! This is where things got sloppy for me, the coffee setup was average at best - Coffee machine not clean from the inside, one of the glasses was foggy (perhaps used) and unclean.” 26
- “The room had a great view and was clean.” 17
- “In keeping with the rest of the hotel, the Discovery Suite has a businesslike colour palette of greys, soft blues, and red accents, with the patterned flooring and chairs also looking slightly dated.” 12
- “The size of that balcony is unreal, and the views delightful. The property has rooms facing city, mountains and the sea - in my case a balcony that overlooked all three!” 26
- “In the remodeled Junior Suite not only is the furniture more modern than it was before, but the new living room chairs are much more comfortable.” 23
- “Heading up to the 33rd floor, we stepped into Room 3308, and were pretty blown away by our surroundings.” 12
- “Park Hyatt Chicago - 10/10 Perfect everything. Location. Amenities. Breakfast. Service. Rooms. stayed in a Chicago Ave suite.” 16
- “In the recently updated Junior Suites, bedrooms now have overhead lighting and more standing lamps. I found the old desk lamps awkwardly shaped and now, interestingly, the light over the desk is the same style but not as big yet just as bright. Good switch, Hyatt!” 23
- “coming up into the room clean comfortable nice everything you would want in a hyatt hotel” On camera79:06
- “All the glass you see on the mirror and on the bathroom door and bathroom wall is just not my taste in room decor.” 23
- “Spanning a generous 380 square feet, this room is located on the 21st floor, and offers a nice view of the city.” 12
- “The Executive Suite did not allow for opening a window, but the Junior Suite has a balcony with sliding door in the bedroom. Because housekeeping was cleaning the balcony when I took the photo, you don't see the usual balcony furniture out there. Even if you don't use the balcony, being able to open the door for some air is a big plus in my book.” 23
- “Black out curtains that were built with overlapping track so you can actually black out the room instead of having light bleed in through where the curtains meet.” 19
- “Although the balcony was a nice touch, it was probably the least useful feature of the room. It's too cold most of the year to hang around outside, and even on the upper floors a significant portion of the view is still obscured by adjacent office towers.” 2
- “The bedrooms have good lighting for the size of the room, with one standing lamp and two lamps at bedside though no overhead lighting in the Executive Suite bedroom.” 23
- “I thought it was strange that the room itself seems to be underutilized. There is enough space here to add a few more features and consider it a small incremental upgrade over the typical room, but oh well.” 1
- “There were a couple of problems in our room. The first is the transition from the bathroom to the carpeted hallway where I felt some loose carpet staples in the floor. Thankfully, it was me finding out that problem and not one of the kids.” 1
- “The closet had plenty of hangers, robes, iron, extra linens, and a safe. There was a pretty good coffee set up available for us.” On camera272:44
- “On a positive note, the room was clean and there were plenty of updated charging ports.” 28
- “And just next to the beds and the window is a comfortable chair. The kids enjoyed sitting here.” 1
- “Used a certificate for a Suite Upgrade to the One Bedroom - great room and stayed in one last time. Has a balcony (2214/12) on the 22nd floor.” 5
- “The small entry area had a cabinet by the door for coffee and water, a closet on the opposite wall, and a bathroom to the left. It was nice to have these placed out of sight from the rest of the room.” 2
- “The room is sold as a City view which made for some pretty sunrises/sunsets along with nighttime views.” 3
- “For me, the standard suite has been a bit silly. It's a wholly separate/connected room. I've used it zero times in a week.” 6
- “I booked a "Preferred View Room" as that was the cheapest available on hyatt.com. It ended up being on the 32nd floor with a very nice view.” 19
- “I don't know if my Diamond status gave me any sort of upgrade; clearly the room was the standard set up. Clean, small, modern, business. Nothing deluxe but very nice.” 19
- “Stayed here about a month ago. Great hotel in a great location. Also got upgraded to a high room with a balcony.” 22
- “The Discovery Suite had views of Downtown Vancouver from no less than three sides of the 33rd floor, which were were pretty spectacular through the floor-to-ceiling windows.” 12
- “Executive Suite counter has good overhead lighting.” 23
- “The closet had plenty of hangers, robes, iron, extra linens, and a safe.” On camera272:44
- “Similar to other Flyertalkers, we just got upgraded to a high floor room. Certainly a nice view, but not as nice as in Seattle as many other skyscrapers blocked some of the water view.” 18
- “This time I was not upgraded to the Presidential Suite (maybe they figured out Canada doesn't have a President...) but instead received a Deluxe Balcony Room, with a spacious balcony facing Vancouver Harbor. This is just one level down from a standard suite, so it's a perfectly fine upgrade for a Diamond member.” 2
- “The living room area is a bit dim given the large space. I actually moved a standing lamp from the bedroom into the living room for extra lighting.” 23
- “I particularly liked the contrast between the bed headboards and the wallpaper pattern behind it.” 1
- “I prefer an office style desk chair that can be adjusted for height. Those old chairs, which you still see in the Executive Suite, are narrow and a tight squeeze even for a thin woman like me.” 23
- “Plugs and outlets were plentiful and well-placed throughout the suite. There were outlets near the beds and universal plugs and USB charging ports at the desk.” 23
- “The furnishings looked modern, the carpet clean, and the room spacious.” 12
- “I appreciated that the full length mirror was in the room vs what seems to be the default set up of many hotels with the mirror inside the closet doors as the lighting is much better out in the room.” 3
- “I am impressed with the Junior Suite refresh. They came out really well and the suites look and feel so much better.” 23
- “The balcony area was quite spacious, but a bit barren with the small table and 2 chairs. The condition of the balcony itself was a bit dated too.” 28
- “also on the note of the air conditioning while it worked reasonably well it never got really cold i like it cold at night i would set the air conditioning to 66 degrees fahrenheit i think as cold as it probably got was 72 something about hotels and cold places often their air conditioning never gets really cold so i wish the air conditioning in this room worked a little bit better” On camera710:10
Bed & Sleep6 mentions · 1 filmed
- “Bed is fantastic - super plush mattress, plush pillows, plush covers - really great bed” 15
- “The mattress and linens were comfortable but unfortunately, I despised the pillows. They only came with 2 per bed, and they were super flat!” 28
- “Rooms are spacious, sleek, and have a functional, business feel, with modern multi-shade gray carpeting and large headboards the color of cherry wood.” 14
- “On a side note, the Hyatt Luxury Pillowtop mattress king bed was one of the most comfortable beds I have slept on in a hotel in the past few years - so much so that I was really sad to be checking out of the room and still thinking about the great sleep I got at this hotel!” 3
- “most importantly of all we slept really well in the room the beds were soft” On camera79:12
- “The beds are comfortable enough. I'd rate them on the soft side though, so if you sleep better on a harder bed, you might not love them.” 23
Food39 mentions · 3 filmed
- “Grand Hyatt Seattle - 6/10 Rooms are nice , but no restaurant breakfast and club room breakfast is sub-par.” 16
- “What salvaged breakfast were the nice views of the street from the second floor, mini cinnamon sugar doughnut holes with each meal (a nice touch that made up for our failure to stop at the 24-hour Tim Horton's next door), and our great server the first day.” 13
- “we found all the breakfast here to be pretty tasty in particular i really enjoyed the eggs benedict and the view from this restaurant was quite nice” On camera71:35
- “On-site Mosaic Grille is popular for its tasty lunch and dinner” 14
- “Hyatt Place Ottowa West - 7/10 everything we needed, nothing we didn't. Breakfast was extremely crowded.” 16
- “The breakfast buffet is outstanding with an omelette station. We had a car and did the valet. Very easy.” 6
- “Apparently rooms used to have Nespresso coffee machines. They have been switched out for Keurigs. My husband said his coffee was horrible.” 18
- “The Hyatt Regency Vancouver provides complimentary breakfast buffet (we were also offered menu ordering) to Globalists. They don't have a gourmet restaurant, but the offerings were solid and there was one thing that really impressed me - ironically not related to the food itself.” 9
- “The breakfast buffet is outstanding with an omelette station.” 6
- “Honest review: was a very average breakfast akin to what you would find at most Hyatt Places in the US. I used it as a quick bite after my morning workouts.” 3
- “They can be as rude as they want! That said, we were able to order off of the menu, though it wasn't proactively offered. Some of the most disgusting avocado toast I've ever been served.” 18
- “On my first visit here, the lounge was closed on the weekend, so you may be able to get 2,500 bonus points and breakfast in the restaurant downstairs (pretty good) if you come on vacation.” 2
- “i do also want to point one thing i like about the mosaic breakfast restaurant really nice views of the city center so you can eat with a view the corner table i think is definitely one of the best” On camera78:11
- “Yeah the breakfast ar tidal for olive 8 blows the club room continental breakfast out of the water. That is reason enough to switch.” 16
- “I've spent more than 100 nights at the HR Vancouver since the start of the pandemic. I guess I got used to it. I don't think the breakfast is really that special, but I always say I'm spoiled by my Asian and European stays.” 18
- “The lounge was nice, and the food was fine, but nothing to get overly excited about.” 15
- “There was no option for dinner other than the fairmount across the street... Which I enjoyed... A nice hotel but if you have a restaurant why not open it for dinner...???” 5
- “Breakfast on 34th floor was good - nice omelet station and good smoked salmon” 15
- “Since the club lounge is closed, free breakfast is served daily at Mosaic Bar and Grille. Overall, both the a la carte and buffet items were high quality.” 5
- “In contrast, in this lounge hot food offerings at night are protein! I've sampled tasty meatballs, grilled shrimp, chicken wings, and pork ribs, so not only are the offerings good, but there is plenty of variety. Each night the lounge also provides delicious, creative salads.” 23
- “as a globalist our breakfast benefit was 35 of free food per person i really liked the eggs benedict that was pretty good i had that like three days in a row apple juice also really great oc girl liked the pancakes with yes the canadian maple syrup of course” On camera77:44
- “Andaz Singapore - 9/10 Amazing location. Amazing rooms ( stayed in an Andaz family suite) best pool we've been to. Best globalist breakfast.” 16
- “I'd say dinner here is actually a bit better than expected, partly because of the phenomenal service and partly the meals themselves. I don't typically expect too much from a hotel restaurant, but the Mosaic Grille is a respectably decent place to choose for dinner.” 1
- “Clean and comfortable with a king bed and lots of space. Our Hyatt points program entitled us to a sumptuous buffet breakfast each morning.” 17
- “The hotel has excellent service, good dining, and clean rooms.” 1
- “Park Hyatt Chicago - 10/10 Perfect everything. Location. Amenities. Breakfast. Service. Rooms. stayed in a Chicago Ave suite.” 16
- “Breakfast buffet at the Mosaic Restaurant was good, but not great. Egg station and standard Hyatt Regency buffet, but somewhat limited options.” 18
- “The breakfast buffet is outstanding with an omelette station. We had a car and did the valet. Very easy. Great location.” 6
- “Excellent dining options + On-site Starbucks” 3
- “Overall, the food was decently good, but it did take a little bit of time to get some items restocked (as you might be able to tell from the pictures below).” 1
- “Breakfast was basic; one morning the hot option was oatmeal and the second morning it was an egg dish.” 19
- “The breakfast items were top-quality, and we helped ourselves to quite a few plates' worth.” 12
- “The Hyatt Regency Vancouver offers a very solid buffet spread, which is accessible on a complimentary basis for Globalist members.” 12
- “Was disappointed (but not super surprised) that Globalists had to take their breakfast in the newly opened lounge.” 15
- “The public areas are, overall, quite nice and the views from the guest rooms are terrific. Although the club lounge is still closed (unlike the other Canadian hotels I was at), they provide a very good breakfast at the restaurant and some attractive afternoon drink options.” 5
- “Overall I was not very impressed by the food. It just didn't taste that great, and the poached eggs-both for the buffet's eggs benedict and my hash-were the kind made with a mold rather than by hand.” 13
- “Breakfast at the Regency across the street is more flexible (can do market or sit down)” 16
- “Breakfast was served at the Mosaic grille & bar, which was a large seating area that doubles as a restaurant and bar in the evenings. The full menu service was really nice, and if I recall correctly each guest was covered for $29 worth of food and drinks for breakfast.” 26
- “Breakfast was quite good , though. I'm lookingforward to Vancouver getting a Park Hyatt.” 16
Location29 mentions · 1 filmed
- “I stayed there back in 2010, also before a cruise. I remember the location was good.” 28
- “While it isn't the newest or most luxurious hotel in the city, it gets the important things right: comfortable rooms, good value, great location and exceptional service.” 3
- “The hotel isn't perfect and needs a little TLC here and there, but as a points/free night certificate option in downtown Vancouver, it's tough to beat.” 5
- “Centrally located on the northern edge of downtown, just a few blocks from the Coal Harbour waterfront, the Hyatt Regency Vancouver offers a well-situated locale for cruise ship passengers, sightseers and business travelers.” 20
- “This is a good hotel in an excellent location, and a really good value on points.” 5
- “It's quite central, being less than a mile to Gastown and just a 10-minute walk to the waterfront and Canada Place Cruise Terminal. We ended up just walking from the hotel to the cruise port and it was quite easy even with our luggage.” 28
- “The hotel has excellent service, good dining, and clean rooms. It's also found in a good part of town, close enough to Canada Place to be useful for cruisers (a short 10 minute walk away), and also nearby excellent dining and shopping.” 1
- “Hyatt Regency Bellevue/Seattle - 8/10 Our gettaway hotel as we live on the eastside of Seattle. Great location and amenities for a Regency” 16
- “Excellent location, got upgraded to a remodeled room on top floor with my explorist status.” 22
- “Why? For the same reason many opt to stay here: for its convenient downtown location, spacious rooms, easy access to public transportation, and short walk to Canada Place.” 3
- “The Hyatt Regency Vancouver is good value and has excellent service in a convenient location within central Vancouver, British Columbia.” 1
- “The hotel is well-located downtown, has a Starbucks in the lobby, and an outdoor heated pool.” 9
- “Fantastic downtown location close to lots of restaurants and shopping” 3
- “The Hyatt Regency is located on Burrard Street and is very well placed for exploring the city. It's located three blocks from the waterfront and three blocks from Robson Street, which is one of the main shopping districts.” 23
- “@Tim J, if you have enough Hyatt points, the Park Hyatt Sydney is a great place to stay with a location that can't be beat. It sits right by the water next to the Sydney Harbour Bridge and across from the Sydney Opera House, with downtown Sydney and ferries right there for whatever you want to sightsee.” 9
- “Along with the neighborhood, visitors also praise the well-designed rooms, which feature floor-to-ceiling windows, iPod docking stations, small refrigerators and consistently lauded Hyatt Grand beds.” 20
- “The Hyatt Regency Vancouver has a great location a few blocks from the waterfront and about a 5 minute walk from the Canada Line train to the airport.” 5
- “The hotel is geographically well-located for downtown Vancouver, has great Elite recognition, is dated looking but is generally a good value compared to other downtown Vancouver properties, especially on points.” 5
- “Conveniently located and a Starbucks in the lobby for an added bonus.” 17
- “Older hotel, but very nice and great location IMO. I booked under a corporate rate and was asked to show how I was affiliated with that Company -- never been asked that before.” 6
- “Great hotel on the 31st floor with lovely views of the mountains in the background of gleaming downtown Vancouver.” 17
- “The surroundings of hotel include a harbour and a mountain. It has a perfect location in the vicinity of CF Pacific Centre.” 8
- “Good central downtown location, but not as pleasant a location for tourists as the Westin (which is quieter, on the water and next to Stanley Park, which is the city's top attraction).” 18
- “Park Hyatt Chicago - 10/10 Perfect everything. Location. Amenities. Breakfast. Service. Rooms. stayed in a Chicago Ave suite.” 16
- “The hotel is centrally located in Downtown Vancouver at Burrard St and West Georgia St, next to many downtown restaurants, shops, and popular attractions. It's certainly an unbeatable location for any first-time visit to Vancouver, or a business trip when you'll be spending most of your time downtown.” 12
- “Older hotel, but very nice and great location IMO.” 6
- “pros super great location of this hyatt regency vancouver right next to the sky train station walking distance to gas town walking distance to the convention center walking distance to robson street walking distance to pretty much everything in the city center vancouver and then close to that train so that's awesome” On camera77:15
- “Good location even if it's not the most updated hotel. Would stay again!” 22
- “Park Hyatt Chicago is amazing! I was there for 3 nights last summer and loved it! Great service, location and view.” 16
Service40 mentions · 4 filmed
- “just on the other side is the hotel's check-in area kind of a dark uninspiring space but good news it was really no line while we were there” On camera71:01
- “All the toiletries were very nice Gilchrist & Soames, which Hyatt generally only gives to people staying in suites.” 13
- “The hotel is well-located downtown, has a Starbucks in the lobby, and an outdoor heated pool. It's not the newest, but doesn't feel worn, and staff were uniformly friendly.” 9
- “Park Hyatt Chicago is amazing! I was there for 3 nights last summer and loved it! Great service, location and view.” 16
- “The staff was VERY attentive and helpful; taking your plate, opening the sliding window to the patio, cleaning, refreshing food, etc.” 19
- “The staff was very friendly and accommodating.” 15
- “The Executive Suite bathroom has a towel warming rack. Nice touch! I'm a stickler for hooks to hang towels on and this bathroom gets a big YES!” 23
- “The view from the room was facing a nice courtyard across the street, or you could check out the other tall buildings.” 1
- “The front desk was very kind and apologetic and offered Starbucks vouchers for us to use the next morning. I appreciated the gesture.” 28
- “The lobby felt very businesslike, with dark wood panelling and grey walls and flooring. The check-in desks also appeared fairly dated as we approached them for check-in.” 12
- “We made our way over to the front desk, where an extremely helpful agent checked us in both our rooms and made sure we were as close together as possible.” 1
- “Staff were friendly, and even without the upgrade I think I would have been satisfied with the price.” 13
- “Chilled and scented towels are always a nice touch and even better when they're constantly refreshed (along with the rest of the towels and gym in general)” 3
- “And the service that is provided in the club is so wonderful from people remembering names to offering to assist with drinks during meal services. Thomas, the evening host was especially wonderful!” 3
- “The hotel has excellent service, good dining, and clean rooms.” 1
- “nice interesting headboard lighted headboards some cool art back here” On camera74:23
- “Skip to primary navigation I wrote earlier about our train ride to Vancouver on Amtrak. It was okay, but what really impressed us was the service at the Hyatt Regency Vancouver.” 13
- “I love that there are robes pre-placed in rooms (and while there are no slippers, you can easily request them via the app)” 3
- “Upon presenting myself at the check-in desk, the polite staff member went through the regular process of thanking me for the loyalty and also confirmed that I was assigned a King room with balcony (technically an upgrade) on the 31st floor of the hotel.” 26
- “The service was so, so great the entirety of my stay. It started at check-in from proactively getting a room based on my preferences ready hours before check-in and even apologizing about no suites being available (which is understandably what happens when World Cup is in town and one of the teams playing is stay at the hotel)!” 3
- “My experience at the Hyatt Regency Vancouver check in was probably one of the warmest I have experienced in a hotel. Perhaps this is the standard welcome for a Diamond member but I was very impressed. The desk agent (I wish I had got her name) was efficient but took the time to make sure I knew about all the property amenities.” 19
- “The hotel says services will be limited if a strike occurs. For the moment, service at the hotel is good.” 18
- “While the "hard product" of the hotel was average, I found the service to be excellent. When one of my keys didn't work, immediately someone came to give me a new set.” 19
- “Definitely needs a renovation. Also cleaning seems to be inconsistent as sometimes I find the carpet still dirty.” 15
- “Hyatt Rengency Vancouver - 6/10 Kind of disappointing. Very old and run down. Rooms extremely small.” 16
- “Housekeeping and guest services are always quick to provide requested items. At the hotel front desk there is always more than enough staff and the concierge desk is well staffed too.” 23
- “The check-in desk was deserted except for a lone clerk who actually managed to remember us for the duration of our stay and was exceptionally friendly.” 13
- “While it isn't the newest or most luxurious hotel in the city, it gets the important things right: comfortable rooms, good value, great location and exceptional service.” 3
- “I had heard from others that the service was really great at this hotel and I would 100% agree that it is really wonderful and was from every person that I encountered during my stay.” 3
- “the service here has also been fantastic we've loved the staff particularly at breakfast i love the people who work in the breakfast restaurant for mosaic” On camera77:34
- “The public areas are, overall, quite nice and the views from the guest rooms are terrific.” 5
- “Park Hyatt Chicago - 10/10 Perfect everything. Location. Amenities. Breakfast. Service. Rooms. stayed in a Chicago Ave suite.” 16
- “Ultimately, what surprised me the most was the overly positive experiences we had with employees here. I'll admit that receiving an email from the hotel warning us of possible strike activity happening during our stay lowered my expectations, but the service here during our stay was something I expected from the Park Hyatt Tokyo. Well done!” 1
- “The Hyatt Regency Vancouver is good value and has excellent service in a convenient location within central Vancouver, British Columbia.” 1
- “I feel like the front desk is in a kind of odd place for this hotel. The coffee shop is immediately when you walk in, but you do have to wind back here to find the front desk.” On camera270:14
- “Been here twice (here right now actually). Solid hotel. Excellent service.” 6
- “Overall, very efficient service.” 5
- “Stayed here for a week. Can't say it was super pleasant what with the closed club lounge, looming threat of a strike, and downright rude correspondence from management, but after all is said and done, I can't think of a better property in downtown Vancouver (I am brand loyal but to four: Hilton/IHG/Hyatt/Marriott).” 18
- “The front desk was also more than happy to extend a 3pm late checkout as a Globalist member, which is also quite generous when you consider that we were staying in the presidential suite.” 12
- “Rooms were clean and beds were comfortable. Service was great.” 6

- “Obviously it had to have wall-to-wall and floor-to-ceiling windows with a northern view of the harbor (this is better than at the Regency Club, which faces west directly into some office buildings). Quite amazing!” 13
- “Great service, location and view. I was solo and they upgraded me to a higher floor with city view and it was amazing.” 16
- “The floor-to-ceiling windows offer a great view.” On camera273:43
- “You can't beat the view from the lounge. From the 29th floor the views to the north of the mountains overlooking the harbor are strikingly beautiful.” 23
- “well our traveling princess also really enjoys this chair this is a great chair to sit out and enjoy the view” On camera74:32
Bathroom22 mentions · 3 filmed
- “The shower was more of a bathtub. You could decide to either soak in the tub or if you want a shower, the only option was a rain shower. While the setup looks a bit odd, I actually have to admit it worked quite well. There was good shower pressure and plenty of volume.” 1
- “The Executive Suite bathroom has two sinks, which is always a welcome feature.” 23
- “The bathroom was a pretty good size, though it might be a little crowded with two people standing in front of the mirror.” On camera272:15
- “Bathroom was basic, but clean” 26
- “Inside the bathroom, the vanity felt clean and modern, with a rather large mirror above it.” 1
- “the other con is the bathroom frankly i did not like the showers in the bathroom at all the rain head just on the top was not that great trailing princess didn't like it either it was hard to shower like that” On camera710:31
- “I found the standard three-piece bathroom to be spacious and sufficient.” 28
- “The bathroom is what you would expect from an older building. Small (one vanity) with a bathtub. It had clearly been updated, but you can't make a bathroom larger.” 19
- “It was good though because we ended up with 2 full baths. Our biggest beef is no walk-in shower, do not like tub in general. We have a tub in our master bath and have been used exactly ... 0 times since we moved in ... LOL.” 15
- “Standard Pharmacopia bath amenities (shampoo, conditioning rinse and body wash in large bottles) that you find in Hyatt (they're just okay if you are picky about that type of stuff)” 3
- “The bathroom has dark grey/almost black tiles both for flooring and for shower tiles but the lighting was adequate that it didn't feel too dark.” 3
- “The shower head was on the smaller side of hotel rain showers that I have seen in hotel rooms but the water pressure and temperature were good.” 3
- “finally i'm going to show you the bathroom right behind us good size recently remodeled bathroom” On camera76:04
- “In the back was a large shower embedded in the ceiling-not the best if you're a woman trying to avoid getting her hair wet.” 13
- “The sink counter space was great, and the water pressure in the shower was excellent.” 28
- “Water pressure was good and the water was hot.” 19
- “The shower stall in the Executive Suite is actually quite small given the size of the bathroom, with too much bathroom real estate being taken up by the tub.” 23
- “However, out of sight doesn't mean they had something to hide. I really liked the dark bathroom tile and the modern styling of the faucets. There may have been too many overhead lights for my taste, but I didn't find much worth complaining about here.” 2
- “But if this is all I can complain about (and I do love to critique food 😉 ) then the rest of the hotel clearly isn't that bad. Except for the bathroom. They must redesign that suite.” 13
- “I swiped a shave kit and a dental kit for use on a future mileage run. However, I truly hated the toilet and considered using the half bathroom in the foyer for the duration of our stay.” 13
- “The spacious vanity, featuring a large central mirror with integrated LED lighting, adds a touch of luxury.” 12
- “Water temperature control was difficult in both sink and shower as water had tendency to hold at scalding for a few minutes” 15
Value21 mentions
- “The price of the room ($303 CAD a night) during my room was steep. You are paying for location and service.” 19
- “Bottomline, given the high room rates for just a decent experience, I'd probably only pick this hotel if I were a Globalist on an award stay.” 18
- “The F&B options, outside of the good-value happy hour, are fairly expensive (albeit so is Vancouver).” 5
- “We stayed here a few years ago before our Alaska cruise. I love the points price and the proximity to the cruise port.” 5
- “At the Hyatt Regency Vancouver my award booking was confirmed into a parlor suite which was really two adjoining guest rooms. The second room just had a sofa bed instead of a bed. So it was effectively booking two rooms for the price of one, and my daughter got her own room. Perfect - since she goes to bed before we do, and gets up after us.” 9
- “Points Value: Most of the time, it's an excellent value for a points redemption or a category 1-4 cert.” 5
- “Room Quality - Price Front desk & Reception Location Bathroom Staff / Crew Cleanliness Food & Restaurants Sanitary measures PRO Our Vancouver trip Natalya Danilov, Toronto, ON 2022-10-14 Our experience at Hyatt was excellent! Our experience at Hyatt was excellent! Great service, beautiful decor.” 17
- “Staff were friendly, and even without the upgrade I think I would have been satisfied with the price.” 13
- “This is a good hotel in an excellent location, and a really good value on points.” 5
- “The hard property is a tad dated and nothing exceptional, but it's perfectly fine/nice. Definitely fair for the points/cash price.” 6
- “This caused a rather painful experience for Jenn, who stubbed her toe on it. There is value to be had here at the Hyatt Regency Vancouver.” 1
- “The Hyatt Regency Vancouver is good value and has excellent service in a convenient location within central Vancouver, British Columbia.” 1
- “While it isn't the newest or most luxurious hotel in the city, it gets the important things right: comfortable rooms, good value, great location and exceptional service.” 3
- “Totally agree on the elevators. I wish that more hotels would use that system (although I'm assuming a retrofit isn't cheap), it's so much more efficient.” 5
- “Given the reasonable World of Hyatt rate of 12,000 points during standard pricing, if paid rates were once again elevated across Downtown Vancouver hotels, I would certainly stay or put up a friend here again in the future.” 12
- “Vancouver Hyatt Regency : r/hyatt Just stayed 4 nights at the Hyatt in downtown Vancouver Canada. Just stayed 4 nights at the Hyatt in downtown Vancouver Canada. 12k points per night ($280 cash price) good redemption.” 22
- “Excellent points/certificate value the majority of the year.” 5
- “We booked this hotel on a Costco rate given that we'd missed out on an earlier 48-hour sale. However, it was still a reasonably good price (about $150 plus taxes) and included breakfast each night thanks to my Diamond status since the Regency Club is closed on weekends.” 13
- “I didn't have status at the time, but they offered a cheap paid upgrade when I checked in.” 6
- “Absolutely, especially if booking an award stay. This is a very well-located property right by the downtown waterfront and, given hotel prices in Downtown Vancouver, it's a steal as a category 3.” 5
- “During my first stay, the property was still a Category 3 property, and I'd redeemed just 9,000 points for the stay, which was a great deal.” 12

- “The way the elevators are programmed: you choose a floor/destination (and scan room key as applicable) before getting on the elevator and then are told which elevator to enter does significantly speed up things (in addition to having six working elevators)” 3
- “just hopping down to the fourth floor and coming back up the elevator's pretty quick just to go down there and come back up to the room” On camera79:39
- “The biggest complaint I have about the room is the connector door allowed noise in from the neighboring room. After the concert we got back to the room around 11:30pm. Our neighbors were having a party and at 1:00am we finally called security.” 19
- “the room was quiet well except when she was running around at night but other than that it's pretty good” On camera79:16
- “The elevator lobby area on each floor was elegantly designed with artwork and comfortable/tall cushion chairs.” 26
- “The main area of the room was pretty good size. This was a connecting room, and we did hear the neighbors a little bit, but that wasn't a big deal.” On camera273:17
- “In a high rise hotel, one of my pet peeves is either a slow elevator, or just not enough elevators for the guests. Hyatt Regency Vancouver has this area more than covered, with a setup of 5 elevators, and a an elegant touch-screen system for accessing guest floors in the building.” 26
- “Security was quick to respond and after that the group quieted down.” 19
- “The elevators were fast and efficient, and you would select your floor before entering the elevator.” 28
