This was my first time staying in a capsule hotel, and I was a bit nervous, but the pods were surprisingly private. The staff was very helpful in navigating me around the property, and kept everything very clean. There were plenty of lockers available in multiple sizes, so I felt like my things were secure.

Panda Pod Hotel offers a clean, modern, and affordable stay in Vancouver with a unique capsule-style concept. The pods are cozy and well-maintained, providing privacy while still being in a shared space. The common areas, including bathrooms and lounge spaces, are kept clean, and the staff is friendly and helpful. The location is convenient, close to public transit and the airport, making it a great option for solo travelers or short stays. The only downsides are that the pods can get a bit warm, and noise from other guests moving around can sometimes be an issue. Overall, a great place for budget-conscious travelers looking for a different kind of stay! Would definitely consider staying again.

Liked my last stay so much, and glad I5'9 turned. Clean and easy to navigate, pods are pretty comfortable for this style of hospitality. The staff are warm and helpful, 4and each time I need them to hold my bag a few hours past check-out due to travel 7

The concept is unique and the place is well maintained and managed. The sleeping space was too warm for me, though. The fan helped.

One solo night

This property is good for a night or two. If you’re looking for a minimalist place, it’s a fit for a quick night sleep.

The place was spotless. The sleeping pods were comfortable. Safe and secure cupboards for my belongings. Lovely shower soaps and everything was so clean. The general quirkiness of the hotel was endearing. Had a lovely evening chatting with the other guests. I’ll definitely be back
