It's a heritage property converted into boutique hotel rooms right in the heart of Gastown. The neighbourhood can be a bit colorful but we found it to be amazing. The rooms are perfect for an overnight getaway and the hotel is very close to the Helicopter terminal to Victoria as well the float plane terminal. 100% will stay again.

Clean room - responsive staff available on phone. Parking was convenient. The shower handle did break off and we couldn’t get the pull out bed to go back in. But outside of those minor things, the stay was great!

Amazing experience staying at the Block House. The communication with the host was prompted and they checked in a few times within our 3 day stay. The building was clean and our room was perfect. The building was secure because it was located in not the best area.

Property is in Gastown which has plenty of food and drink options. The property itself is recently renovated and incredibly clean. The check in process was very straightforward and the room was to a high standard with an incredibly comfy bed! The staff were friendly and super helpful when we needed to reach out with some questions. They very extremely accommodating when it came to looking after our luggage before our flight home. Highly recommend!

Easy access into room, door to street and door to gated parking lot. Room was beautiful. Host was super kind with allowing me to park before and after my reservation when I was getting my tattoo done! Alleviated a huge stressor!!!! Walkable to many cute coffee shops and restaurants! No need for a vehicle when you are there. I'll be back again!
