We landed at The Westin Wall Centre, Vancouver Airport, following our stay at the JW Marriott Parq Vancouver.
Since our flight to Montreal was early the following day, we opted for a hotel near the airport to facilitate transportation.
Condo towers and vacant lots announcing construction are around the hotel. Nothing very bucolic, except the mountains in the distance.
Located in Richmond, The Westin Wall Centre, Vancouver Airport is a 5-minute drive from Vancouver International Airport. The hotel offers no shuttle service.
However, keep the receipt if you take a cab or Uber from the airport to the hotel. The cost is fully reimbursed at check-in.
For the trip from the hotel to the airport, let the front desk know in advance. They will book the cab for you and hand you a coupon to pay the driver.
So you don’t have to pay anything for the trip from the airport to the hotel!
We arrived on foot in 10 minutes, from the Bridgeport subway station on the Canada Line. If you do this walk during the day, there is no problem. But if it’s dark, it would be nice to take a cab or an Uber.

The customer service was extraordinarily efficient.
Check-in was quick, the cab was called for the following day to the airport, and we were asked if we wanted something to drink. We hadn’t even had time to sit in the lobby when we had already received our order.
The reception is welcoming, with ample space for the entrance. All the staff were very accommodating and courteous throughout our stay.
We were on the 15th floor, right in front of the hotel lounge door. Our room was on a corner, at the very end of the hallway. It was not particularly larger than the other rooms on the floor.
It was standard, with two cozy queen beds, a work desk and an armchair. The chair for the office could be comfortable for a few minutes, but not several hours.
A refrigerator was hidden in the work desk, and a Sunbeam coffee maker was present. Please note that there are no USB plugs in the room.
One side of the room overlooked relatively new condo towers. The other side overlooked Sea Island Way, vacant lots and a truck rental business.
Despite the airport’s proximity, we did not hear the planes at all. It was quiet on this side, but because of the construction in the area, the hotel provided earplugs. We didn’t need it.
The bathroom was a good size, with a separate bath and shower.
To reduce the number of small individual bottles, large bottles of gel, shampoo, and conditioner are available in the shower.
The Apron restaurant is on the first floor and replaces the temporarily closed lounge.
It is open from 06:30 to 22:00 and is also a bar.
Located on the 15th floor, it is unfortunately still closed. It is reserved for Platinum members and higher.
So, breakfast is given at the Apron restaurant, on the first floor. During the dinner hour, appetizers are also served for members. They can choose to have them in the dining room or brought into the bedroom.
We had delicious sliders (mini burgers) and a salad on the side during our stay.
There is a pool and hot tub on the 4th floor of the Westin Wall Centre Vancouver Airport.
However, you must go to the 5th floor and follow an absolute labyrinth to finally end up on the 4th floor.
The fitness room is just across from the locker rooms leading to the pool.
Several treadmills and stair climbers await us, as well as a series of weights.
Since the area is commercial, residential and relatively far from the metro, one does not go to this hotel for a tourist visit.
The Westin Wall Centre, Vancouver Airport, is a convenient option when there is a long layover between flights at Vancouver International Airport.
You can also go there to the famous Richmond Night Market!
Plus, it’s an excellent place to use a free night certificate via the Marriott Bonvoy® American Express®* Card for example.
