#2 of 3 hotels in Burnaby & Metrotown by Axel's take. Burnaby & Metrotown is #8 of 8 places to stay in Vancouver. The best hotels in Burnaby & Metrotown, ranked · Where to stay in Vancouver

Axel's take: 8.5/10

A strong transit-friendly base with useful extras, though light sleepers should choose carefully. A practical, select-service hotel beside Burnaby’s Metrotown SkyTrain, scored for what it is.

This select-service Holiday Inn Express in Burnaby is a strong pick for travelers who want Vancouver access without staying downtown. Metrotown SkyTrain is across the street, and Metropolis shopping is next door. Recent Expedia and Tripadvisor guests repeatedly praise helpful staff, clean rooms and comfortable beds. Included hot breakfast and gated underground parking make it good bang for your buck; a year-round heated outdoor pool adds a useful extra.

The main compromise is noise: some guests report trains, corridor activity or room equipment disturbing sleep, although others find it quiet. Ask for a room away from the tracks. Breakfast is practical rather than elaborate, and there’s no on-site restaurant. We’d choose it for shopping, family trips and transit-based sightseeing, but skip it if downtown walkability or dependable silence matters most.

  • Best for: Families wanting breakfast and parking included; Transit-based Vancouver sightseeing; Metrotown shopping trips

  • Watch out for: Train and corridor noise in some rooms; Not in downtown Vancouver; Height-restricted underground parking

  • Location: Across from Metrotown SkyTrain, beside the mall; convenient for transit rather than downtown sightseeing on foot.

  • Rooms: Practical rooms with generally well-liked beds; layouts vary, and some guests report train or equipment noise.

  • Cleanliness: A consistent strength in guest feedback, reinforced by Expedia’s strong cleanliness rating.

  • Service: Recent reviews repeatedly praise welcoming, helpful front-desk and breakfast staff.

  • Amenities: Included hot breakfast, Wi-Fi, fitness center and year-round heated outdoor pool; no on-site restaurant.

  • Fees and surprises: Gated underground parking is included, but clearance is roughly two meters; oversized vehicles need advance planning.
