Greystone B&B

Excellent, comfortable accommodations. Graham Laxton is an outstanding cook and genial host.

The single room accommodation is excellent for a sole traveler. It was very nice to be welcomed with a glass of wine and some friendly hospitality, as well as numerous practical suggestions. In keeping with other reviews, I found the breakfast to be outstanding and very efficiently served for those on a tight schedule. More food was offered than most could eat and each bite was delicious, particularly the fresh blueberry pancakes with maple syrup and bacon. An added bonus was the free street parking. I would return without hesitation.

Greystone is an outstanding b&b, in a lovely old home in a beautiful part of Vancouver. The owner, Graham, cooks and serves a variety of amazing breakfasts and is a charming host. The rooms are great, with very comfortable beds. I highly recommend it!

Very poor wireless. Friendly host. Nice older home. Clean. Too many frogs, teddy bears.

Graham and Lee are wonderful hosts. Greystone feels like home when you return from the day out or a long walk down leafy Maple Street. Graham's cooked breakfasts are a great start to the day and his local advice on travel routes was very helpful.

It's quiet, comfortable, well located. Graham and Lee are good company - and Graham cooks up a great breakfast!

Business travel, my first stay in a B&B. Clean, comfortable, safe, Graham's breakfasts are amazing! Just remember you are in a home and noise travels more than in a hotel!

Have stayed with Graham and Lee before. Will certainly return again. Convenient walking distance to lots of amenities; great food and very pleasant surroundings.

We treated ourselves to a one night stay at the Greystone B&B. We were welcomed that early evening with a glass of wine and a great conversation. Graham and Lee were extremely helpful in recommending a restaurant on the nearby beach for a romantic dinner at sunset. Our room was very comfortable and the breakfast the next morning was "over the top." Wonderful memories!

This is a good B&B and well-located in Vancouver. Overall it met my expectations, but I thought it overpriced. The host is a pleasantly gregarious man and seemed to enjoy interacting with guests, for which I give high marks.

Nice home; good breakfast but rather inconveniently located for anyone wanting to spend time in the downtown area. Very engaging owner.

we were in August for 5 days. Owners friendly and welcoming. Room very nice and clean. Breakfast abundant and different every morning. Good location in a wonderful neighborhood. And we will recommend it! Enrica and Igor (Padova-Italy)

We loved our stay at Greystone. The owners are friendly and gracious and we enjoyed meeting their international guests at breakfast, which by the way was delicious and extremely well served. We also enjoyed cocktail hour with their guests. The neighborhood area is lovely as are the gardens at the B & B.

This was an excellent B&B and the welcome was very nice.

location, cleanness, service, hospitality and breakfast were perfect highly recommended !

Graham is simply a great! His handmade breakfasts are excellent. The house is located in a quite position, 15 min to downtown.

This B&B is in a great location in the Kitsilano area of Vancouver. Graham and Lee are very welcoming and helpful to all their guests. We have stayed here three times and love it. The rooms are a good size and all have their own private washroom. My husband especially likes the Shaunassy room as it has deck doors outside. Graham always has a large breakfast that includes fruit, cereals, toast, coffee, tea, juice, fabulous home made muffins and always a hot main dish.

Good B & B, host is very friendly and knows a lot about Vancouver. Great breakfast. Nice room.

Our third visit and as usual a very comfortable, welcoming stay. The breakfast is always very good with a good variety offered and a delicious hot dish each morning.

stayed here twice. Great spot for quiet stay, yet close to facilities on Arbutus and Broadway. Graham and Lee were genial, cheerful, unfailingly helpful and accommodating of special requests like getting the right pillow for you and lending you an iron. Like a home away from home!

Graham and Lee's hospitality is legendary - and deservedly so. From helpful advice on what to do and where to go - to Happy Hour at 5pm (a lovely touch!) We stayed in the Rose Garden Suite which was really suited more to families than to our set up (2 x 80 year olds / 50+ year old). The steps in and out of the unit and the bathroom were a bit tricky for the elderly in our party. However it was very comfortable and cosy. Greystone is situated in Kitsilano, just south of downtown. We found the local transport easy to navigate and the buses ran very regularly. All in all, this B & B is very good value for money and we would most definitely stay there again. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending it anyone looking for a quiet, friendly and comfortable home environment. (Maybe not the right place for the nightclubbing set.)

One couldn't find a cosier B&B. How do you beat happy hour with wonderfully affable hosts, a glass of wine and nibbles beside a crackling fire, and a friendly dog at your feet. Breakfast had an amazing array of goodies: dry cereals, fresh fruit, muffins, juices, yogurt, homemade jams and, if that wasn't enough, a hot entrée. Can't recommend highly enough.

Breakfasts were exceptional and the staff was very friendly & curtious. The B & B is located in a quiet residential area.

We thoroughly enjoyed our short stay at the Greystone. The hosts were very helpful with dinner recommendations, walking and bus directions, and making us feel welcome. Very convenient location - close to downtown, yet quiet.

This centenarian house is full of delightful character, and the proprietors are excellent company. The breakfast was amazing - an array of fruits, cold cereals, homemade baked goods, perfect coffee, and delicious eggs Benedict! Hard to beat, especially at very reasonable off-season prices.

Friendly, comfortable, pleasant atmosphere and most helpful hosts. The breakfasts were of a very high standard.

Graham was a great host, conscientious, friendly, and helpful, as well as being an excellent cook! I highly recommend this B'n'B!

Graham is a wonderful host and exceeds expectations. Very clean & cozy rooms, great location, beautiful street and free parking.

I was in Vancouver on some tough family business and had never stayed in a BB before. Graham and Lee treated me like family. A glass of wine by the fireplace and chatting with these two lovely people truly eased my burden. If I was to travel back to Vancouver I would not stay anywhere else. Nice quiet location and very well kept. Thanks again for everything--Jeff

Lovely place to spend a weekend getaway and Graham was very friendly and accomodating.

Entering something in here as the program will not let me continue

Graham and Lee are wonderful hosts, and staying at the Greystone feels like coming home. Breakfast is wonderful, and "happy hour" is a very nice treat. The rooms are small (to be expected from a 100 year-old house) but very comfortable, and you really don't need any more as you also have use of the common areas. The rooms are clean in the housekeeping sense, but to be honest, the overall sense is that they are looking rather tired. The rooms could really use new carpet and a lick of paint to bring them back to looking clean and bright. Overall though the Greystone is a very good value for the money and I would not hesitate to go back.

2 night stop in vancouver, lovely quiet location short walk from public transport and dining options. Helpful friendly hosts.

This B&B truly has the feel of being in a friend's home for a visit. It's full of interesting stuff accumulated over a lifetime I would suppose. It's warm and cozy, and the host is an absolute charmer in a quiet, gentle way. He cooks up a darn good breakfast as well with lots of variety. It was a lovely stay.

Four of us visited Greystone in 18/19/20th June 2009 and had a very warm welcome from our English host Graham, and his lovely Canadian wife Lee. Our garden apartment supplied us with everything we required for our stay, including many extras. There were numerous brochures available helping us to explore Vancouver and the apartment lacked for nothing. We were encouraged to sit an oasis they called a garden and watch the visiting birds and just relax. Our hosts were so interesting and helpful and we enjoyed our Happy Hour times with them each day, not only for the wine and nibbles - but for the excellent repartee - explaining some of the local folk lore and traditions. We would love to visit again and thoroughly recommend this to anyone.
