It's not the nicest, but it's the cheapest and by far the most convenient - The Burrard Inn [www.burrardinn.com] is on the same block as the Woking medical clinic, on the same side of the street. Believe me, that's really nice when you have to start lining up at the clinic at 5:45 AM.

Barclay Hotel on Robson. It's the cheapest I've stayed in there at $49/night (double bed, double occupancy). No breakfast. No wifi but I pick up wifi from the adjacent hotel. Very basic but as long as the bathroom, towels, bed linen, floor and furniture are clean, I have no problem with the lack of extra amenities.

Comfort Inn Downtown on Nelson St. is $100+ per night but has breakfast (lots of choices, not just muffins and bagels). Has wifi. Choice of bathroom with jacuzzi.

Fairmont on West Georgia - very nice. more pricey.

The Empire Hotel - on Robson,

Riviera - on Robson; has kitchen, living room, bedroom

Can't remember the other hotels I've stayed in.

All of these hotels are in the downtown area, walking distance to the US Consulate.

No-breakfast hotels weren't a big deal since there were lots of eateries around.

Last time I was in Vancouver, I stayed in the Century plaza Hotel. The price was great for the suite that I got. It's also on Burrard street, 2 minutes from the aforementioned Burrard Inn.

I stayed at the holiday inn on Howe str... easy peasy to use the busses and the hotel staff seemed to have dealt with other "pending immigrants" before, as they directed me everywhere I needed to go (Woking etc..). I would definately recommend it!!

Invictus..

Out of the night that covers me,

Black as the Pit from pole to pole,

I thank whatever gods may be

For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance

I have not winced nor cried aloud.

Under the bludgeonings of chance

My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears

Looms but the Horror of the shade,

And yet the menace of the years

Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,

How charged with punishments the scroll.

I am the master of my fate:

I am the captain of my soul.

William Ernest Henley
