hazelson Posted February 11, 2006 Report Share Posted February 11, 2006 Canada Place - at least that's where they left from last summer - I waved at a whole boat load of HAL passengers a couple of times last year. If you have any questions about our fair city - please don't hesitate to ask. And welcome to Crazies!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mildavis Posted February 12, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 Thank you all very much. We have planned to stay at the Hampton inn suites on Robson St. Is this a good place to stay? It's only one night, but we want to be centrally located to everything in Vancouver and close to the cruise ship terminal . Also, there are 3 families of 4, so it isn't going to be so easy to pile 12 people in a taxi real quick to go somewhere. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

KeithnRita Posted February 12, 2006 Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 We cruised on the Statendam in 2001 and it was docked in Canada Place. We stayed at the Hotel across the street and had cruise check in at the hotel. A HAL rep. walked us across the street and directly on to the ship. Sorry, can't remember the name of the Hotel. Do remember it was kinda pricey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joanandjoe Posted February 12, 2006 Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 It apparently has sailed from Canada Place for a long time. We sailed from there on the Noordam in 1998. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mildavis Posted February 12, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 Thanks again everyone. Rita Ann, what do you mean by pricey? I don't think ours is such a great price and we were thinking of looking around for a better one. Our TA made the reservation for us. There were several other hotels mentioned on the vancouver port website as being close by. I think one was a Hyatt maybe. If you think of the hotel, post it. We would love to be checked in at the hotel and walked aboard. Very nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeithnRita Posted February 12, 2006 Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 It was the Fairmont Waterfront and it was around $200 per night. It was HAL's pre-cruise hotel. http://www.fairmont.com/waterfront/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
