the best hotels in Vancouver, there are definitely four key areas you should keep in mind: buzzing Downtown Vancouver, waterfront Coal Harbour, trendy Yaletown, and West End (or Best End as locals like to call it) - the gateway to Stanley Park.

Inaugurated in the late 20s and reopened in 2011 after a 5-year revamp, Vancouver’s most historical hotel was one of the first to introduce the city to world-class luxury accommodation. The grand staircase, soothing fireplace, and Italian marble floors in the lobby are still some of the features that remain from the Rosewood Hotel Georgia’s original structure. The Canadian modern art collection exposed throughout its premises adds a sense of contemporaneity that seamlessly blends with the hotel’s more classic charm. Follow the steps of emblematic personalities such as Frank Sinatra, Elvis, Katherine Hepburn, and Marlene Dietrich, and check-in at a haven of glamour and comfort where perfect service and excellent facilities are the standards. A saltwater indoor pool, a small yet luxurious spa, and a state-of-the-art fitness center (with a special mirrored room for yoga practitioners) can be utilized for some invigorating and relaxing moments. A rooftop space with an outdoor lounge and bar invites for graceful city views and a chilled cocktail time. Guests wishing to take in the urban vistas from their own private balcony and rooftop deck with hot tub, fireplace, and cooking space, will be more than delighted to book the exclusive Rosewood Suite, our all-time favorite. Vancouver Art Gallery, The Orpheum Theatre, Queen Elizabeth Theatre, Robson Square, the Vancouver Lookout, and Harbour are some of Vancouver’s attractions located just a stone’s throw from the hotel.

JW Marriott Parq Vancouver exudes elegance from all of its corners right by False Creek inlet at trendy Yaletown - a former industrial district, now trimmed with glass towers, waterfront parks, high-end eateries, and eclectic designer boutiques. Do take a ferry along False Creek and visit the nearby, local’s favorite Granville Island. Back at the hotel, neutral and beige tones are the chosen palette for the overall décor, which though somehow impersonal, create an ambiance of sophistication, luxury, and intimacy. Spacious rooms with tall, glass windows grant some superb views over False Creek, the city skyline, Science World, and the adjacent BC Place from the rooftop hot tub. The hotel’s several restaurants serve varied cuisines: from steaks and seafood at the Victor, Chinese at 1886, to farm-to-table dishes at the Honey Salt, comfort, casual meals at the BC Kitchen, and Asian street food at the MRKT East.
