"Classic Lady in a Beautiful City"

The Best Western Sands has been our hotel home for over 25 years. We love the location, friendly staff, views of English Bay, the updated rooms and bathrooms. The beds are comfortable and the mountain view room was quiet. Loved the window shades! We'll be back again!
