What's wrong with the Patricia Hotel?
I've booked it because the price! I already read, that it might be noisy!
Anybody knows about the Patricia Hotel?
Is there a kind of WMCA around Vancouver?

Great! Maybe we can meet up again like we did in Santa Clara.

I just booked it now too, but for $284 USD a night. I failed to do my due diligence Tuesday night. I haven't had enough time to devote to this as I am in DC for meetings and just went with an IORRian/local's recommendation of the Sandman. That was after the Hotel Patricia disaster of which I have been amply reminded by deangoodman and others.
So now, I have three Vancouver reservations: the Sandman, the YMCA, and now the Georgian Court. The deciding factor is going to be how much travel money I get from my employer. If it is enough, I will go with the Georgian Court. If not, one of the other two.

I'm from Vancouver, I've been to the pub underneath the Patricia many times for friends bands, but the hotel itself is infamous. Well known for bedbugs and other vermin, its price makes it a short term stay for many of the drug users in the area (it is in the heart of skid row, if you don't know Vancouver, stay away from east hastings in general, it is the shame of our city. Huge drug and homeless population, looks like a war zone. Though, not their fault our city has failed to deal with it in any meaningful way). My friend parked in that area awhile back and when he came out he found used needles on his windshield. Stay away from anything on Hastings since you don't know the area.Quote

Someone here posted that it is not far from the BC Place. I think maybe a mile or less. Go to some of the aggregator travel sites and it will tell you how far it is from the stade. I booked for the 12th and 13th, but when I tried to book another for the 11th and 12th, it said those dates were not available (not sure exactly which day I will be driving in). It was 120 CAD and 90 USD for one night, including taxes etc. Here's the address:
733 Beatty Street, Vancouver, BC, Canada V6B 2M4
Tel (604) 895-5830
Toll free 1 (800) 663-1424 (in North America)

.. agreed, although the Vancouver Police Museum just around the corner is pretty cool.
