Second time staying on UBC campus. For C139 you get a pretty, modern suite (easily sleeps three adults or two adults and two young kids) with sitting room (and sleeper sofa), kitchenette, wifi, cheap parking, and super comfortable king size bed. Just a few blocks from the coast - stayed our first time for easy access to beaches for summer... More

My daughter and I went to check out UBC. We decided to stay at West Coast Suites because it's on the campus and it looked nice online. At $145 a night (including parking), it's not a bad deal: the suites are nice, the bed was excellent, and the amenities were convenient (fridge, plates, full set of cookware, etc.). But our... More

Let's start with the positives. The idea of UBC Suites is a good one. Major university, downtown location, perfect place to stick a hotel for those needing to visit the UBC campus or its environs. The location is perfect. The staff we dealt with were very friendly. Once inside, the suites were lovely. Once inside. The common areas — corridors,... More

Staying at the West Coast Suites was great for us...we enjoyed the collegiate atmosphere (students had returned in the 1st week of school) and it was close to everything we wanted to see. We also really liked the extra space the suite provided (more than just one room) and parking was a breeze (costs extra but still less expensive than... More

I am in Vancouver to attend an event at UBC. The location of the Westcoast Suites is perfect for my purpose, and its nice that the bus loop is just down the street to connect me with Vancouver. The offseason rate was comparable to other hotels in Vancouver, and I chose to stay here for the convenience of being on-campus.... More

This is my second and LAST time I have stayed at the West Coast Suites. I have always felt uncomfortable with the housekeeping personnel seing my personal things but I don't want to have to tidy up after myself when I stay at a hotel either. I told the receptionist I don't need any housekeeping during my stay and kept... More

Travelling with my husband and young daughter (8 months), we were attending a wedding that was on the UBC campus. The suites were perfect for our needs as it had a kitchen which was convenient for breakfasts and lunches. Travelling with a baby, you don't want to have to go to a restaurant for every meal, and it allowed us... More

My husband and I stayed at West Coast Suites. The bed was nice, but the TV is only in the "living room" so you can't watch it from the bed. Also, the bathroom only had a shower, no tub. When we requested a room change, they were unable to accommodate us, and told us we should have asked for a... More
