We have stayed at the Meridian at 910 Beach several times and found it very desireable. The kitchen space was well equipped and the location, virtually right on the water. Is marvelous. You walk out of the hotel and in half a block you are on the bay. The staff has always been courteous and helpful. One great plus is that the ferry takes you across to Granville Island. You are then in the most popular and, in our opinion, the best market in North America. This is the most desireable hotel in Vancouver. You will find us there in August.

I am appalled at the way we were treated this past weekend. Advice to people booking online-- even if you confirm your reservation over the phone with Meridian, dont be surprised if you show up and they tell you that they no longer have the room available! What is more amusing is that they down-grade your room and expect you to pay anyway, no discounts, due to their mistake. The shady part is that they offered to hold the new room for me while i looked around at other hotels for a better deal and told me i could cancel the room if i found something better since they made a mistake, but when i returned, I was told that because i did not cancel 2 days in advance, they were required to charge my credit card the full amount?!?! they would not give me back my credit card information, and told me they would charge my credit card for the amount on the room. Please be informed that they apparently have no manager, CEO, or CFO who cares if Meridian is reported to the Better Business Bureau for fraud and extortion of money. The people at the front desk have no way of contacting the manager, and they also do not know who the manager and owner of the hotel is. I highly recommend that you stay elsewhere unless you'd like to argue with them for 90 minutes about them lying to your face and demanding that all your information be destroyed and deleted from their computer system. The person at the counter did not offer anything close to customer service, was rude and unkind, cocky and a down-right jerk. They did not deserve my business nor do they deserve yours until they can properly run a quality business. The location is near the water, so if you are looking to do anything on granville ave, then it is too far to walk.
