Vancouver hotels near Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Classical Chinese Garden

Cons: Pool too small and no life, concierge only so so

Cons: Not much we didn't like. It was a bit pricey but we felt we got great value considering it is a luxury property.

Cons: A balcony would be nice

Cons: Loved everything about it. Will be back!

Cons: The fire alarm went off and we were all evacuated. The firemen came and it was a false alarm. We went back to the rooms and it went off again. We were asked to evacuate a second time but the cleaning crew told us not to pay attention and sure enough 1 minute later it stopped. The firemen came a second time and the assessment was that the equipment is outdated and needs to be updated. Kind of a crazy morning.

Cons: That we only stayed one night :)

Cons: The wireless internet connection was AWFUL despite coming included w the room. Couldn't get online and it was really difficult to connect.

Cons: It appeared that we arrived during a meal break or such as there was only one reservationist at the front desk who became overwhelmed trying to check in three groups while answering the phone, etc.

Cons: Price

Cons: For such a nice property, I found the noise pollution from the hallway to be very problematic. The door was not well-insulated - I could hear every word spoken in the hallway, not to mention noise from other rooms down the hall. For what I paid, this is an unforgivable oversight. Also, the housekeeping calls at 8:30 each morning were a little ridiculous.

Cons: A little on the expensive side for an older hotel with few amenities, but the location is worth it and the beds are comfortable.

Cons: Could hear everything inside the rooms. Staff kept asked four times about check out which is ridiculous service. The in room dining service was poor. Nobody answers phone call.

Cons: The staff was, at times, short and unaccommodating. Our room key had to be replaced 3 times due to it not working in the elevator.

Cons: The restaurants and bars immediately nearby, close at 10pm. So as soon as a show or game is over at BC place or Rogers theater, you better head for bed.

Cons: Everything was great!

Cons: Didn't like the fact that for a higher end hotel there wasn't free WIFI. Paying $13.95 for WIFI seemed too expensive when we paid over $500 for the night.

Cons: For every little things I was charged , like domestic calls !!! Really?

Cons: Nothing

Cons: In a world where wifi has become fundamental for communication and information, and is offered for free all over the world because it is an inexpensive way to draw business, the fairmont charges $14 per day. I would have paid if it was just included in the already expensive room rate. As intended, I didn't read the fine print and was shocked to find out I had to go to the lobby to work. I was on a business trip. Also, I had to set the thermostat to 90, the maximum, to warm the room. It was never comfortably warm.

Cons: Nothing

Cons: Late night room service options.

Cons: Extra charge for everything. food is very expensive

Cons: Internet charge was a little outrageous

Cons: The water and shower were strange. Hot water ran out of the cold faucet in the sink for a full minute before it got cold, every time. Temperature of the shower and strength of the stream were from the same dial, so to get good pressure you had to sacrifice comfort. Truly bizarre. You need better signage downstairs to find the front desk. Usually they're on the ground floor. One of the down elevators was out, so we had a long wait because the first one working was full. $4.50 for bottles of water in the room? No way! There should be 2 complimentary water bottles, which you get in other fine hotels. And there is no convenience store nearby which stocks good water at a reasonable price. The (excellent) TV in the room was set at an odd angle, you have to twist your neck to view. Channel selections did not include Fox Business, which has higher ratings than CNBC; and MLB Network, which has baseball coverage other than the Toronto Blue Jays. And if you must burn half a dozen channels on French language programming, it's time to expand channel capacity. The three dinner restaurants had problems, in addition to high prices. The bar which had such good recorded music at lunch had a terrible, whiny live folksinger performing. We had to leave. The top premium restaurant was closed for a special event, and the third was expensive and you could still hear the awful folksinger because there was no wall. We wound up dining at the hotel across the street. You don't want people walking in there, do you? Finally, and most annoyingly, there was a fifteen minute waiting queue for a taxicab when we were leaving for the airport. The cab driver explained that the problem was all the cabs were handling cruise ship traffic. Well, this must happen most days, and you need to do something about it besides having an older doorman losing a battle with the hotel across the street (and customers down the street) for the attention of the taxis. You should probably warn your guests in advance of the problem, and provide a list of private local cars/limos and the URL of the Vancouver version of Uber as alternatives. And hire a sexy young woman to replace the older gent because if cabbies in Canada are anything like those in the U.S., they won't make sharp U-turns to avoid a beautiful woman making sharp whistling sounds.

Cons: Had my reservation for a king sized bed, and when I entered the room, it was 2 doubles. Went down to get it changed, and the staff member (Elena?) said the rooms were fully booked and said that "the king sized was just a request". I persisted that I reserved a king and paid the price for a king, which was clearly printed on my reservation confirmation. She went to the back room to check with her manager, and finally came back out to change my room to a king size bed. It was a little troubling to have to put up a fight to get what I had reserved.

Cons: The fact that the room felt somewhat expensive and still charged for wifi and water. No free breakfast as well

Cons: Water was a bit pricey

Cons: Rooms need more plug ins, especially since one were found near the desk.

Cons: I

Cons: The elevator system took some getting use to.

Cons: Had to switch rooms, 1st Room was very dirty and the balcony door was broken so we could hear all the street noise and had a draft. We went from 19-20th floor Beds didn't look like that photographs. No robes

Cons: Price

Cons: Dislike the comfort of the bed! Felt like I was sleeping on a soft floor. Not therapeutic at all. Woke up to a sore back.

Cons: The shower. The faucet coming from the ceiling was an adjustment.

Cons: A little bit expensive

Cons: They refused to honor elite status or give Hyatt points for the stay. I am old Diamond member which is now called Globalist. But no privileges are extended for those booking through Kayak.

Cons: None

Cons: Elevator system is awkward at first. If in a rush, new user is going to be confused. Was stuck on my floor for 10 minutes waiting for elevator and couple is elevator that came said they had gotten stuck in the elevator. One of the bathroom lights didn't work.

Cons: The "free" internet service in the room was unusable. I could connect, but the connection would drop after a minute or so. Could not reconnect without rebooting my laptop. The process would then repeat itself. Called tech support, who wanted to make configuration changes to my computer. Given this property is the only place where I've ever had a problem, I declined -- and went down to the lobby to use Starbucks' wifi. Also, could not get the room cool enough. Woke up in the middle of the night perspiring. A find this is a common issue in hotels these days with the occupancy sensing thermostats, but at this property the issue extended even to active periods in the room -- even with the temperature set to 65.

Cons: My room was clean, which was most important, but it really needed updating.
