    The neighbours were very noisy at times and I got woken up by their yelling at 12 midnight. The windows were open as it was summer.

    The property is very centrally located within walking distance of many shops and restaurants. I enjoyed the breakfast service. My room was very comfortable.

    Absolutely nothing, it was perfect for us!

    A beautiful location, quiet but in the heart of the city. It felt extremely homely, with blankets to sit on the veranda and a living room. Our bedroom was really comfy, we wished we could have stayed longer. The host was so friendly and flexible and breakfast was delicious!

    Barclay is the best B&B in Vancouver... I was lucky enough to choose this bed and breakfast nearly 15 years ago and absolutely loved it. Today, I was able to return for a second experience with this lovely property and it's Top Notch host. Like they say in real-estate, location is everything, and that definitely applies to the Barclay House.

    The fixtures and furnishing were mostly good, but a mixed bag. For example, our washroom had an excellent bathtub as well as a good nightlight (a simple amenity too often missing), but it had no shelves on which to store our toiletries. The buildings on the street are closely spaced and our windows looked directly into neighboring apartments. One should be aware that the breakfast is a breakfast of the day, not a choice of various dishes or a buffet.

    The neighborhood is really wonderful; Pleasant street; In walking distance for us (we are strong walkers for being old folks) to Stanley Park, English Bay, Coal Harbour, City Centre, Canada Place, and even Granville Island. Barclay House is an attractive, quaint building. The common sitting room and dining area are very attractive. The room we stayed in (Forest) is spacious. Breakfast was expertly cooked, elegantly presented, and the right size for us.

    No bubbles for the spa but was great to just relax in the tub anyway.

    We stayed in the 'Hideaway' with a large spa bath. The room was warm and very comfortable. The breakfast was exceptional. Both mornings, the menu was different offering fresh fruit, cooked eggs and apples to go. We would definitely recommend this piece of luxury. The location was the best. Easy to walk around and very safe with restaurants very close by. Stanley Park, Downtown and Robson Street was just a few blocks away

    I have to write something, so I'll tell you that I had to put the black book in the window with the kettle to make the room darker because I can't sleep with something bright (like the outdoor light)

    Chef's kiss to that breakfast. We loved it! Dennis was kind, understood our situation, and gave us precise instructions. The black book inside the room is lovely! The room itself is a gem.

    One wish would be slightly bigger breakfast. It was good but could be little bit more filling.

    Lovely location close to many restaurants, the room was spacious with a view into the garden which was lovely but feel bit dark when the day isn't sunny. The fireplace in the room makes it really cozy.
