[vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading el_id=”review_residence_inn_by_marriott_vancouver_downtown” text=”Review: Residence Inn By Marriott Vancouver Downtown” google_fonts=””][vc_column_text el_class=”checkmarks”]After an unconvincing stay at the Sheraton Vancouver Wall Centre<\/a>, I decided to spend my last night in Vancouver at a nearby hotel, the Residence Inn By Marriott Vancouver Downtown<\/a>.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”109708″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_column_text el_class=”checkmarks”]Also classified as Category 6 in the Marriott Bonvoy<\/a> program – like most Vancouver hotels – the Residence Inn Vancouver Downtown<\/a> hotel is accessible from 40,000 points per night.<\/p>\n

For this COVID-19 pandemic stay, I preferred to pay for my night at a cost of $140 with my Marriott BonvoyMD<\/sup> American ExpressMD<\/sup>* Card<\/a>. That’s how I got 5 points per dollar<\/strong>.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”114769″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_single_image image=”109712″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_custom_heading el_id=”residence_inn_by_marriott_vancouver_downtown_-_lobby” text=”Residence Inn By Marriott Vancouver Downtown – Lobby” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” google_fonts=””][vc_column_text el_class=”checkmarks”]As in all the hotels visited, the Residence Inn Vancouver Downtown<\/a> took care to establish different rules regarding COVID-19: the reception desk oversees the hotel entrance, floor markings indicate where to stand, and Plexiglas protect the employees at the desk.<\/p>\n

A market is available to the right of the reception, which is convenient for a snack.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”109714″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_single_image image=”109716″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_column_text el_class=”checkmarks”]At the reception level, several computer stations are accessible (with printer) and there’s a rather pleasant lounge with large screens, as well as a fireplace.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”109718″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_single_image image=”109720″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_single_image image=”109722″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_column_text el_class=”checkmarks”]Before my arrival, I reached out to the reception desk at the Residence Inn Vancouver Downtown<\/a> via the Marriott Bonvoy application. As everything is in the art of negotiation when you have a Marriott Bonvoy<\/a> status, I wanted to get the best room possible.<\/p>\n

The hotel informed me that the 1 Bedroom Penthouse Suite was unfortunately not accessible, so I ended up in the Studio Two Queens, which was very comfortable for my stay with a friend in the city.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”109724″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_message]<\/p>\n

Very appreciated gesture![\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”109742″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”]

But half of the devices were blocked off to ensure social distancing.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”109748″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”109750″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded” ][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”109758″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded” ][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text el_class=”checkmarks”]Close to the gym are a swimming pool and whirlpool, also open. I can imagine families with children having fun here!<\/p>\n

Actually, I think that on a future family trip to Vancouver, this hotel will be on my short list (with The Westin Bayshore Vancouver<\/a>).[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”109754″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_single_image image=”109756″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”]
