Awesome location next to Skytrain if you are planning to go into town (Vancouver). Station is about 30 seconds from the hotel. Sketchy neighbourhood and parking is strange, i.e. you can't actually go to the lot and pay for the night; you have to go out and buy another ticket at some ungodly hour. Paying through the front desk is... more

This hotel is one of the cheaper in the vancouver area, without having resorting to a motel 6 or something seedy. The staff was a husband and wife team who were more than willing to give advice on the city and ensure that our short stay was comfortable. There are not a lot of amenities in this hotel, but we... more

Some of these reviews might leave you with the impression that boutique = old = dumpy. Couldn't be further from the truth! I've stayed at this hotel several times, just for proximity to the Sky Train (<2 min walking). I've never had breakfast there so can't comment on that, but it has always been extremely clean and the staff... more

My boyfriend and I stayed in Sept 2007 for two weeks. We paid the higher rate for a room with a kitchenette however there was only a fridge and microwave and two plastic disposable cups. We approached reception who advised this was all a kitchenette was, and none of the rooms had anything other than fridge and microwave. When I... more

Booked online, and was quite satisfied. Rooms were fairly large, although the afternoon sun beating into the room was making the small A/C unit work overtime. Great location, easy access to all of the Greater Vancouver area. Lots of Antique shops nearby, and a nice local pub on the main floor serving your typical pub fare. Good experience all around,... more

My wife and I got a night there as a silent auction prize. Nice boutique hotel. I found the other reviewer's very negative comments to be without foundation in our case. Super clean and large rooms. A great choice for someone out of town as it is right on the Skytrain line. We're in our mid 30's and our budget... more

My fiance and I stayed at this hotel for one night, while I was attending a course at a nearby college. We found the owner and fellow staff to be very polite and friendly, and accomodated us without problem, as we had arrived early in the day. The hotel is very charming, with sitting areas in the middle of the... more

The Met hotel offers budget accomodations near Vancouver Sky Train (only 2 buildings away). The Sky Train is convenient and only a half-hour trip to downtown Vancouver (CA$2.25 nights and weekends, July 2006). The renovated Victorian rooms offer high ceilings, and the hotel had intermittend high-speed wireless internet access when we visited (accessible from 3rd floor and some rooms on... more

The Met has some good qualities: Nice view, very affordable, decent pub next door, parking half a block away There are also some serious drawbacks: My bed was really hard (ouch!). But worse yet, my roommate's bed linens were dirty! We tried to call the front desk since we were already in our pajamas, but our phone wasn't hooked up... more

Don't be put off by the small entrance. This place is big in its character. Warm and cosy rooms with charming common space in the centre of each floor. Very friendly hosts and excellent location for exploring shops along Columbia, strolling the riverfront or accessing Skytrain. Extended our stay an extra night since we loved it so much. Better value... more
