    First time at this location, second time with the chain. Stayed for three night as I was working in the city. The room was nice. Functional, not complicated, and had more than enough options for most people. The kitchen is fabulous to have available for longer stays. And that large refrigerator is wonderful. The WiFi is good, by the way. Having the desk with a window view was a nice part for this corner unit. The patio is roomy as it is a corner location, has a wide view of the side without other buildings in the way from my angle. The layout of the hotel is odd. Drop offs and registration are on floor 1, lounge/breakfast area is on 5, main entrance is on 3 from the street corner which I didn't find until second day when walking from the outside. The bed was comfortable and plenty rooms. I usually like firmer pillows but there were so many that it was not hard to make due. Added location bonus, it's near my work. So a short commute to the office. I know this is my hotel of choice on these business trips.

    A mini-family reunion was held in the first week of July (yay, Canada day). My grandfather wanted to see his brother in Burnaby. Our extended family was more the gracious in offering a spot to stay at their place. I kindly declined the offer since I was planning to go 'rage' at night and hang out with my other friends who were up from the SF for the week. The one bedroom was contemporary and up to date with white cabinets, stainless steel appliances and a fairly ample patio overlooking Central Park. Location wise, it was a 10 minute walk to Metrotown. From Metrotown, we were able to take the SkyTrain all over the Vancouver vicinity. Here's a couple of the things I did during the trip: *Dinner @ SURA Korean BBQ *SkyTrain over to River Rock Casino Resort in Richmond *Rented a bike and looped around Stanley Park & downtown *Cactus Club Cafe in Yaletown *Lynn Canyon Suspension Bridge (it was free, thought it was not the Capilano it was amazing to see my 90 yo grandfather and his brother walk across) *Cleveland Dam *Dim Sum with the fam at Western Lake Chinese Seafood *Pay respects at Forest Lawn Memorial Park *Hanging out friends at the downtown lounges (I remember a trip in my early twenties raging at Gastown, dancing at the Purple Onion YAASSS!!!) *Richmond Night Market (wooah!!! this spot puts all those night market promoters in California to shame) A fun time always in Vancouver to visit the extended fam and chill with friends enjoying that Vancouver life and having comfortable accommodations and accessibility at the Element for this memorable trip.

    I stayed at the Element Vancouver Metrotown for 6 nights for a work event. The first night there I called service to clean the shower as the shower floor was dirty. I sent a message via the app and they acknowledged and serviced the room almost immediately. The entire staff was great, greeted me by name every interaction and down right great at their jobs. Happy even. I was in and out the hotel often and would run into staff laughing with one another. I thought that was an awesome sight to see. Now room had everything I needed and a great view. My only complaint were the pillows. The pillows were so flat. I doubled up on the pillows in my case to make a standard pillow. My neck was killing me the first night. I would recommend bringing or purchasing your own if possible. There's a mall within walking distance. Oh, my room was with equipped with a full kitchen and a grocery store was right outside the hotel. Good in the area wasn't the greatest but hotel breakfast was decent most mornings. I would recommend this hotel, just remember to bring your own pillows. I can't stress this enough lol

    Loved this place ! Great location ( close to Metrotown ) Very bright, clean,roomy & modern. It's set up for extended stay as it has a kitchenette to cook in. The appliances are new and stainless steel. It also has a sitting area, and a nice bathroom with rain shower head. They have a pool and a fitness center. They also have a free breakfast. It has fresh apple, orange and cranberry juices , pastries, oatmeal, toast, hash browns, sausage, eggs, granola, dried cranberries, coffee and tea. They have a rather large, bright clean room to eat in as well as the patio. It's always rather busy. I really liked it here, I have stayed here 3-4 times and would defiantly stay here again.

    I might stay here a while, what an incredible hotel.

    This is a wonderful hotel to stay at for business or vacation. I had a studio apartment and the view from the 18th floor was breathtaking of the mountains. The amenities are great, free continental breakfast, meet and greet in the lounge from 5-7pm, relaxing spot till you decide to eat in or out for the night. The staff was exceptional and this is coming from someone who travels 18 days out of any month. Highly recommend.

    Friday night!

    The pros: new and modern, Trattoria is in the same building and it's very centrally located near Metrotown. The cons: there is no valet service, no bellman to help with suitcases and the pool is shared with the residents in the building. We came here for a girl's night when we couldn't decide on a restaurant. We wanted air conditioning, a pool and room service. Check in was ok, staff was nice enough, the A/C was decent but when we went to the pool, there were two families with about 6 or 7 kids who were screaming and using water guns. It wasn't exactly the relaxing swim we'd hoped for. I assume they are residents of the building as they were very familiar with the facilities but they could have been hotel guests. We'll never know. Towels weren't stocked in the linen room so we had to call the front desk to bring some. When we ordered room service from Trattoria, we found out we had to go get the food and bring it back the room. Not a huge deal, but not room service either. The hotel rooms seem to cater to longer business stays as they have microwaves, and longer stay items in the kitchen. Overall, this isn't a frills hotel.

    New hotel in Metrotown. Had a seminar here. Definitely a good venue. Has parking but you do have to pay. If you are trying to enter the parking lot be sure you are heading north or else you will have to do a detour to get to it. The hotel is connected to the residential building which is somewhat awkward. So food is tasty here. Had breakfast included with the seminar and everything made fresh on the spot. I like it. Have to say the sausages here are very good. Elevator is somewhat a bad design. So when I was waiting for the elevator, I have no clue which one has arrived. I couldn't see the door open nor was there any lights other then the button lights going off. Just a bad design. Other than that, this is a nice hotel

    Nice boutique condo-style hotel in the Metropolis area. Parking is available in the underground lot for guests. At night, there are also plenty of spots along the street for visitors. If it weren't for the signs outside, the place really does look like a condo tower. The unit my friends stayed in had a bedroom, kitchen area, and even a covered balcony. As this tower is new, everything feels like a brand new condo. The view from the balcony is quite nice, as this is the tallest building in the vicinity.

    Element by Westin Check in service is simple and very friendly. The parking garage is very near by the lobby and the hotel offers carts for luggage transporting to//from garage. The hotel is in a very convenient location. It is right across from Crystal Mall and Metrotown. The hotel design is contemporary and green-centric. My room comes with a kitchenette and a sizable bathroom with rainfall showerhead. The shower gel and hair shampoo/conditioner are an organic brand. The complimentary breakfast is plentiful as far as a simple breakfast. The restaurant is located on the 5th floor with lots of windows. There are so many restaurants nearby. I don't need their breakfast, so I only had coffee. My coffee time with the snow view was wonderful.

    View from bed. Lol

    We loved this place, our stay was fun we took advantage of all the amenities except the gym . I love that the pool has an alternative to chlorine so it's not harsh on your eyes and skin. The hot tub was great and so was the sauna. The rooms are comfy but spacious too. It has a kitchenette and our view from the 12th floor was gorgeous. I loved that the lotion, shampoo and body are vegan products. The staff was friendly, the parking was easy and the location is great too. We totally recommend this place.

    I love languages, and at UBC, I took a Swedish course. I fell in love with the language (I also had…read morean awesome teacher, which played a big role in loving Swedish so much), so when I graduated from UBC, I wanted to continue studying Swedish. Unfortunately I was only able to complete one year of Swedish due to the timing of my graduation, and I couldn't take the second year Swedish class after I graduated because the course was only offered during the day, which interfered with having to work. However, I found out that Swedish (and the other Nordic languages) was offered at the Scandinavian Community Center, and took some classes over the years. The teacher was nice, but the quality of the instruction was nothing compared to UBC. But it was definitely better than nothing, and the price was very reasonable. The last time I took lessons at the Scandinavian Community Center was years ago, probably 2013. I'd love to take more lessons, but taking transit there is a nightmare. The community center is in the middle of nowhere, and there are two busses you can take from Metrotown Station, the #110 and #144 buses. The bus ride is quite long, 20 to 30 minutes (because they take these meandering routes), the timing is such that they arrive way before the class starts or minutes after it starts, and the two buses leave Metrotown within minutes of each other, so you miss one, and you miss both. And in the evening, the timing doesn't align with the class's end time, so you either have to leave class early or wait for half an hour in the dark, at an unlit bus stop, that's just a bus stop sign stuck in a ditch on the side of a super busy highway. Perhaps things are different than when I took lessons, but back then, to walk to and from the bus stop to the center (which was at night, as the class starts at 7pm and ends at 9pm), there was no sidewalk so you had to walk on the side of a busy highway and hope a car didn't hit you. It was particularly terrifying when it was pitch black (there was no lighting) and raining. I'd love to give the Scandinavian Community Center more stars, and I'd love to take more Swedish lessons, but the location is horrible and not reasonably transit accessible, and the instruction is only so-so, so not worth it for me to make the trek.

    Mountain View Farm

    Mountain View Farm was the perfect venue for our August 2024 wedding!…read more We initially discovered Mountain View Farm through internet searches and were immediately drawn in by the beautiful photos. After visiting the venue in person, we knew it was exactly what we were looking for. Oana, who manages the venue, gave us a tour of the backyard and the house. Seeing it firsthand helped us visualize how we wanted to set things up. The outdoor space was ideal for the event itself. At the same time, the house provided a convenient and cozy option for us and our family to stay together, eliminating any worries about accommodation or travel time. The location is just far enough from Vancouver to feel like a peaceful escape, but close enough that it's easily accessible--only about a 45-minute drive. It ticked all the boxes for us. Venue Details: House rules: No shoes inside, and quiet hours start at 11 PM. Guests are responsible for cleaning up, trash/recycling and collecting towels in the laundry room. Pricing: The indoor house is $1,000 per night (5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms). Outdoor space prices vary by guest count: $135 per hour for up to 25 people, $165 per hour for up to 50 people. Rentals: They offer table and chair rentals (rectangular tables for 6 people, round tables also available) that can be added to your contract. Decor: Oana has decor available for rent, or you can bring your own. We loved the flexibility of choosing our own vendors, although they also provide recommendations. Before the wedding, we visited the farm one more time to finalize the layout and decor details. Oana was incredibly helpful throughout the planning process, and we were thrilled to have her as our day-of coordinator. Her knowledge of the venue and her experience made everything run smoothly. We stayed at the farm for two nights--one night before the wedding and the night of--which was a huge help. It gave us time to settle in, unpack, and handle some of the setup the day before. The house is spacious and lovely, there's room to take it easy and even a jacuzzi, One minor issue some of our guests mentioned was the house's septic system, which requires no tissues to be flushed to avoid a potential flood. Honestly, we found this to be a small sacrifice for such a beautiful venue. The Wedding Day: The day of the wedding was absolutely perfect. Oana played a key role in ensuring everything went off without a hitch. Our guests loved the venue, and many commented on the stunning views. It felt like our little hidden gem, and all our hard work paid off. The photos were breathtaking, especially with the unobstructed views of Golden Ears. In the end, Mountain View Farm was the perfect choice for an outdoor wedding. We're so glad we had the flexibility to customize the space with our own vendors and decorations, and it gave us the beautiful, peaceful setting we were looking for.

(yes there are foundations in place to protect our heritage buildings, but I'm making sweeping generalizations here) When the Salt Building was first being revitalized during the pre-Olympic building-frenzy era, there was talk of the space being used as a pub or high-end restaurant or some other variation on that theme. Though it may have been entirely acceptable -- and maybe even great -- if that were the case today (and who knows, it may very well be the case in the future), but it almost seems as though that would be a bastardization of this minimal bare-bones structure. The building is gorgeous. Bookended with mammoth-sized windows, allowing plenty of light to pour in throughout the almost 14,000sq foot space, exposing the elaborate timber trusses and metal hardware, and shining of the polished concrete floor, there is not one thing I'd change here. It would be a shame to cover any of it up. A perfect event location, an ideal gathering space, an overwhelmingly stunning surprise in an area that is known for making everything "pretty," the Salt Building is, at this moment, a perfect homage to its historic past.
