This review will be brief. I landed from Vancouver after 9PM, and my flight to Los Angeles the following day was at 7AM, so I left the hotel shortly after 5AM. Not only was my overnight just eight hours, but I wasn't feeling well at all by the time I got to the hotel, as…

Ben, I've stayed at this hotel before and it's really great for a layover. Proactive staff and a nice new building with great amenities.
Had a service issue with them and it was resolved very quickly and gracefully. +1 to the Westin Wall Centre Vancouver Airport!
The Sheraton is kind of a dump. It is in a complex with the Marriott and Hilton all sharing a parking lot (same ownership) but the Sheraton building used to be a holiday inn or best western.
On the bright side, you're much closer to Richmond city centre so you'll have a lot of restaurants nearby (it's heavily dominated by Chinese so expect a lot of Asian cuisine). Don't waste your time or money eating at the hotel. Kirin is just across the street and Shanghai river is within a block
Stayed at the Fairmont last week for an early flight out of YVR and loved the convenience. And my kids loved the chocolate-dipped strawberries and cookies and airplane-watching.
The Vancouver Airport Fairmont is FANTASTIC.
I stayed there a couple years ago on the Gold Floor. Not at bad view from any room. The view from the lounge over the airport and runway was great. Only thing that was a bit disappointing was the 'honour' bar. If I am paying for the Gold Floor, my lounge beverages should be included. I am not sure if this is the management of the particular property cutting corners, or, provincial/municipal liquor laws.
Hi Lucky, aside from the hotel itself, I think one merit of Four Points is that it's close to some most authentic Chinese restaurants you can find in north America, whereas there's nothing around the Westin. But I guess it doesn't matter that much since you only stay there for a couple of hours.
I wasn't really into the Westin Wall Centre rooms, but I found the gym decent enough for a hotel and the little restaurant downstairs has some decent options.
If you don't need a indoor swimming pool, I recommend the Pacific Gateway. The shuttle bus goes directly to and from the airport, and has a nice restaurant and bar sitting in the marina (at regular non-hotel prices).
