  Lounge

  Given

  Disappointing that Globalist breakfast is in the new lounge instead of the restaurant. The lounge is pleasant, with OK food and friendly staff.

  Upgrade

  Suite

  Globalist breakfast moved to the 34th-floor English Bay Room during the restaurant's renovation. Much the same spread as before, with better views.

  Upgrade

  Suite

  Two suite upgrades in roughly 7 to 10 stays, both connecting rooms with two full baths. Main gripe: tubs only, no walk-in showers.

  Welcome amenity

  Given

  On her first stay as a Globalist, after fast-tracking through a Bilt challenge, the reviewer stayed two nights on points following an Alaska cruise and was told at check-in that no suites were available because the hotel was sold out, so no upgrade was given. Globalist breakfast at Mosaic Grille let her order anything from the menu, the hotel also covered her mother's separate-room breakfast charges, and the roughly CA$114 daily bill was removed apart from a CA$5 extra tip charge that the front desk quickly reversed at checkout. She was offered free parking and late checkout but needed neither, and received a Globalist welcome letter and complimentary bottled water.

  Suite, with a suite upgrade award

  Breakfast

  Buffet only

  Travelling with his wife and three-year-old daughter on a Vancouver stopover in June 2022, the reviewer used a confirmed suite upgrade on an award booking to secure a parlor suite made from two connecting rooms, with the second room set up with a sofa bed for his daughter. The club lounge was still closed and there was no room service, but Globalist breakfast in the restaurant combined a buffet with menu ordering, and the hotel stamped the bill to show gratuity was already included. He called the downtown hotel solid and the staff uniformly friendly, while wishing pandemic-era services would fully return.

  Spent a 14-day COVID quarantine here in October 2020, better value than the Fairmont. Breakfast bags at the door, healthier on request.

  Good, not great, with free parking and a good but limited Mosaic buffet. Only worth it as a Globalist on points, given the high rates.
