The Buchan Hotel Review
The Buchan Hotel Vancouver is a great place to stay in West End with gay bars in Davie Village, chic fashion stores on Robson Street, and diverse dining ranging from ramen shops to seafood grills, 16 minutes on foot from Vancouver Aquarium.
The restaurant is open daily for breakfast. Kingyo treats guests with Japanese dishes and lies merely 250 metres away.
This 2-star hotel is nearly a 5-minute drive from the restored Victorian Roedde House Museum, a short distance from Robson Street. The property is also just 1.2 km from such natural sights as the 405-hectare public Stanley Park.
Nature lovers will appreciate the proximity to English Bay, which is a 9-minute walk away. The hotel is a minute's walk from Devonian Harbour Park and a short walk from the 2009 bronze A-maze-ing Laughter Sculpture.
The Buchan Hotel is located 15 km from Vancouver airport and only 200 metres from Denman St at Nelson St bus stop.
