Clean and regularly patrolled by transit officers, which were also very helpful answering our questions.
Pros: clean station, punctual trains.

Cons: terrible signage and poorly labeled ticketing system for people going from the cruise port to the airport.
Great connecting trains to go in any directions from the Vancouver downtown. Canada Line, west Coast Line, Sea Bus Line, Expo line which pretty much covers all the cities in/around Vancouver
Excellent and fast way to get around. We used it to get from the airport to our hotel and back. Buy a ticket and use it all day. As well as the busses.
Clean very spacious with some history. Problems only with the escalator's repairs to SkyTrain. We all had to take the elevator which slowed things down. Ferry is always fun to ride to the north shore.
A nice stop in your daily commute. One can get a cup of Starbucks, or stop by the lotto center. Maybe you need transit stuff, a compass card, information, whatever you need, the transit office is there and very pleasant people will help you anyway they can. Gastown is next door, Harbour Centre is a few blocks away. Hop on a train, bus, or the Seamus. One can go in any direction from Waterfront Station.
The station is huge but is very old. The escalators are very slow and most of time out of service. It has only one elevator but very very slow and very old equipment. The station needs renovations and painting. The lights are dim. This station in very active area in DT has to be very clean and neat as many tourists attending this station. I recommend add elevators and renew the escalators.
It's just a sky train station. Esculators still out of order there for my entire one month stay!
The best part of the station is the signage. If you are visiting or haven't been in the station for a while take your time to read the signage.

We weren't sure if we were getting the right ticket but everything was clearly laid out above the kiosk.

The station was well lit and clean. We waited for the locals to clear out so we didn't get caught up in their rush. We arrived via the sea bus, there were lovely views and some seasonal holiday lights.
It's usually clean and people move thru here quite quickly. It's a standard skytrain stop like any other so not alot can be said about it. I've noticed Translink has been partnering with various food companies to help spruce their stations up.
The Burrard Skytrain Station in Vancouver is a fantastic transportation hub. Its central location makes it incredibly convenient for travelers and locals alike. The station is clean, well-maintained, and easy to navigate. The staff is always helpful and friendly, ensuring a pleasant experience for everyone. Whether you're commuting to work, exploring the city, or catching a flight, Burrard Station is a reliable and efficient choice.
A very beautiful area of the city. A beautiful embankment, an excellent place for walks with beautiful scenery.
Nice during cherry blossom season
Extensively used station, being located beside Burrand Street, it's one of the best communication hubs, providing least distance from Waterfront & Canada Place.
Looks so pretty in spring. The cherry blossom trees are a wonderful treat to see

Burrard station gives me and many passengers an easy way to the awesome places. And to the place I want to visit to buy amazing souvenirs before my trip to my homeland Philippines. And if you’re planning to do shopping, Burrard is a good and safer place compared to do shopping inside busy and crowded mall.
Great station. 👍👍
Have a safe trip everyone! 😉
