beachluvr! Posted April 21, 2012 #1 Share Posted April 21, 2012 We have a very long day/night of travel coming from Maine. We aren't landing (if all flights are on schedule) until 11 PM. I want to use either Hilton or Marriott points and also find a hotel that has a shuttle either from the airport or to the pier in the am. We won't be there long but looking for a good place to stay. Breakfast in the morning is necessary. Room service would be a plus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweedy Posted April 21, 2012 #2 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Marriott Vancouver Airport - Click here Hilton Vancouver Airport - Click here Both of these hotels have a complimentary shuttle from the airport. Both are within easy walking distance to Canada Line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lamchops Posted April 22, 2012 #3 Share Posted April 22, 2012 The AAA rate is very reasonable compared to other hotels. Vancouver Airport Marriott Hotel is located only 5km from the Vancouver International Airport, accessible by complimentary airport shuttle. Also close to Vancouver and Richmond's business districts, Steveston Village and popular Vancouver attractions. 7571 Westminster Highway Richmond, British Columbia V6X1A3 1 604-276-2112 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Putterdude Posted April 22, 2012 #4 Share Posted April 22, 2012 There is a Marriott and Renaissance on West Hastings just a few blocks from Canada Place and they are just re-opening a Residence in the 1200 blk of Hornby St. None of these will have an airport or pier shuttle but the first two are within walking distance of Canada Place. A taxi fare from airport to almost any hotel in the downtown area will run about $35 and about $10 from hotel to Canada Place. http://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/yvrdr-residence-inn-vancouver-downtown/ http://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/yvrrd-renaissance-vancouver-harbourside-hotel/ http://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/yvrdt-vancouver-marriott-pinnacle-downtown-hotel/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beachluvr! Posted April 24, 2012 Author #6 Share Posted April 24, 2012 DH wants to stay downtown and we don't have enough points for that. How far in advance would you recommend booking a room for mid August? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
