What guests think

The Cambie Hostel Seymour is a budget, centrally located hostel with simple rooms; many guests applaud the walkable location but also note loud late-night noise from nearby venues, warm rooms without air-conditioning, and the realities of an older building.

Cleanliness feedback is mixed: several mention very clean bathrooms and tidy rooms, while others report mice in common areas or rooms and occasional bed bug issues, plus some run-down fixtures. Staff are frequently described as friendly and helpful, though a few reviews cite unresponsive or inflexible service and check-in or billing frustrations. An on-site pub gets positive comments on food, and there are many eateries close by. Expect a convenient, social stay best for travelers who prioritize location and value over quiet and polish.

I had everything I required for my stay, except for hot showers. I never got any hot water. The best I could do was reduce the flow to a near dribble & get a tolerable tepid. The noise from downstairs was constant thru most of the nights, but I wore earplugs to dampen the sounds. However, on Friday night, they played loud music & I could hear the bass & drumbeats thru my plugs. I was kept awake until past midnight. Also my food was once stolen from the kitchen.

Great staff… comfy room, stayed in the Seymour suite and it was lovely… clean… shared bathroom looked brand new… super clean… attached pub had awesome food… was a quick walk up the street from the waterfront station at the end of the Airport Canada line and pretty short walk to the cruise port. Great value!

Very handy location in Vancouver, 10-15min walk to Canada Place & train station, Gastown, etc. Rooms & bathroom were kept very clean & you can do your laundry from 4pm to midnight daily (so housekeeping staff can do necessary laundry first). Bunk bed was comfortable, plenty of local food outlets available until late & the bar downstairs has something on every night. That can get a bit noisy with karaoke, etc echoing thru the building, but not a huge issue. Enjoyed my stay 4 days & would recommend!

The room was rather small and very hot. We had to keep the window open so as not to suffocate in the night, and since the accommodation is located in downtown Vancouver it was super loud during the night. Additionally the towels were dirty and there was mould in the communal showers. I would not recommend.

Affordable place to stay, works for a couple days. Only call outs is they do not have AC. It’s an old building so it got quite hot inside even when it was only 12 outside. Also, it’s over a bar and across the street from a nightclub. On weekends if you plan to go out this place is great, but if you want to go to sleep early to explore it is quite loud and hard to sleep.

I wasn't the first to arrived to the shared room, so i got stuck with the top bunk, 80's and 90's movies saying the top bunk is the place to be... it. Is. Not. Heat rises, so it was slightly unbearable to sleep in at times. I went out to the bars at most nights, when i come back, people fart, thats a human bodily function. Id come back from a night out, only to be met with my roomie hot boxing the room....then i climped the bunkbed to sleep...and contribute to the smell. Needs a cheap clip fan for top bunk sleepers.

For the price point of staying in downtown Vancouver, you're really just getting a bed to sleep in. The staff are friendly and accommodating. The shared bathrooms are small. My mattress was so worn that the middle had a massive dent in it, and the building is always loud; bring earplugs with you! If you're looking for a very convenient, central location and a bed to sleep in for the cheap, this is the place.

Great little spot for the price! If you’ve never stayed in a hostel, prepare to bring earplugs if you want the window open for fresh hair (rooms get really warm if it’s closed). Room had to fans which was great to help drown out the street noise and creaky hallways when people were walking to their rooms/ bathrooms. Overall, great spot!

Location was GREAT! In between the Waterfront and Granville stations, it was easy to get places via SkyTram or bus or walk to Gastown neighborhood or Vancouver Playhouse. I had a single room which was maybe 7x10 feet. There were two stools but no table. Bathrooms were clean. I didn't use the kitchen or living room areas. It is on top of a bar with live music and you car hear sirens from the streets below, so bring ear plugs. Other travelers were respectful. I would stay here again the next time I'm in Vancouver.

I will recommend anyone to stay here, the place is so clean and safe. I like that they had separate floors for men and woman, nqde me feel safe. I also really liked the kitchen area, was nice and quiet and great way to interact with other people. The front desk lady was super nice and helpful, whenever I had a problem she helped me right away. Too bad I didn't get her name

Even though I informed the counter personnel that I had to leave early for the airport several times, and they said that someone would be there, there was no one at the counter when I had to leave, my Uber was already waiting and almost left, so I left the keys and a note at the desk. Now they are messaging me that I should pay a late fee

The kitchen/ lounge was fantastic, lots of room for food and complete kitchen to cook in and friendly atmosphere to meet new friends. The bathrooms were very clean and the showers were hot and spacious. The bunkers were comfortable for bunk bed and the bedding was fine. The security storage under the bed fit my open carry on bag and other personal items. I purchased a lock they offered for $10 and felt very secure with my belongings. The security was excellent and the staff very helpful. I checked out and left my bags in a secure space until 5 pm.

En general me parece que precio calidad vale la pena... Pero importante que el establecimiento dijera que los fines de semana si te toca en el piso 1, es probable que vayas a oír ruidos del bar. A mí no me incómodo pero estoy seguro que a otra persona podría ser que si. El tema de la habitación bien con lo justo solo el detalle que la distribución de contactos para cargar el móvil es bastante escasa. Dan un descuento bastante bueno para un desayuno o comida.
