Hotels in Vancouver offer excellent accommodations in a destination with several nicknames. Known for its seaplanes, ferries, ski resorts, beaches, bridges, mountains, seafront, parks, gardens, squares, theatres, museums, art galleries and churches, Vancouver is located in southeastern British Columbia, not far from Seattle, Washington. A seaport city, Vancouver is across the Strait of Georgia from Vancouver Island. Surrounding / bordering Vancouver, points of interest include Capilano Suspension Bridge Park, Lighthouse Park | West Vancouver (forest, trails, cedar / fir trees, lighthouse, city views), Cypress Provincial Park (hiking trails, road biking, ski resort), Cypress Mountain (ski resort), Grouse Mountain (ski resort), Cleveland Dam (long-running dam, spillway, hatchery, trails, vistas), Norvan Falls (waterfall), Buntzen Lake Recreation Area (reservoir, sandy beach area, picnic tables, boat launches, docks, hiking trails), Crystal Falls (waterfall), Golden Ears Provincial Park (lake, 3 campgrounds, hiking trails), WildPlay Maple Ridge (amusement park), Mundy Park (forest habitat, 2 lakes, sports facilities, disc golf, outdoor pool), Deer Lake Park (picnic areas, lakeside trails, art gallery, other attractions), Fraserview Golf Course and Garry Point Park (riverside park, modern sculpture, Japanese garden, beach access, snack bar). Within the city, main attractions are Stanley Park (beaches, trails, family attractions, seawall), Gastown Steam Clock (steam powered, antique-style clock that whistles, built 1977), Canada Place (convention center), Granville Island Public Market, English Bay Beach (beach, volleyball courts, concession stand, café), Queen Elizabeth Park (set on a hill, manicured gardens, conservatory, sculptures, sports courts), Science World (science museum), BC Place (stadium), Rogers Arena, Vancouver Art Gallery, VanDusen Botanical Garden (greenery, flowers, art installations, fine dining, café), CF Pacific Centre (shopping mall), Vancouver Aquarium, Sunset Beach Park (bayside, sandy beach, open lawn, sunset views), Kitsilano Beach Park (sand, lawn, playground, tennis courts, heated outdoor saltwater pool), Totem Poles (nine totem poles preserved from remote British Columbia areas), Jericho Beach Park (bayside, sandy beach, picnic fields, sports courts, sailing center), Museum of Anthropology at UBC (heritage museum). Queen Elizabeth Theatre and Orpheum Theatre. Once referred to as Gastown after John “Gassy Jack” Deighton, Vancouver has grown from a small saloon town into a major Canadian city. Gastown, the city’s first neighborhood, exists to this day and is home to Victorian buildings, restaurants, cocktail lounges, art galleries, souvenir shops and its iconic, whistling Steam Clock. A popular movie and television filming location due to its impressive scenery, Vancouver is sometimes referred to as Hollywood North. The Vancouver Seawall along Stanley Park’s perimeter is the world’s largest uninterrupted paved path. Vancouver’s main airport is Vancouver International Airport, while its metro system is SkyTrain. Good to know is that Uber rideshare does operate in Vancouver, with service to-and-from the airport. The Vancouver Canucks, one of the NHL’s oldest teams never to have won a Stanley Cup, plays downtown at Rogers Arena. When traveling in Vancouver, keep in mind that fall through spring can be rainy, with minimal snowfall. Generally, the city is safe. In Vancouver, currency is the Canadian Dollar, cars travel on  the right-hand side and the drinking age is 19 years old. Top events include Vancouver International Jazz Festival, Vancouver Folk Music Festival, PuSh International Performing Arts Festival, Bard on the Beach, Brewhalla Beer & Music Festival, Vancouver Island Musicfest (discontinued?), Music Waste, Shambhala Music Festival (410 miles eastward), Vancouver Biennale, Celebration of Light, Dine Out Vancouver, Vancouver Cherry Blossom Festival and The PNE Fair. Hotels in Vancouver are some of western Canada’s best accommodations. Before we get to hotels in Vancouver, let’s take a look at some more background information on the area to help you along the way.

As evidenced by archaeological discoveries, Aboriginal peoples of the Coast Salish group are thought to have inhabited the Vancouver-area for at least 8,000 years. In 1791, Spanish naval officer, explorer and navigator José María Narváez became, possibly, the first European to explore Point Grey and the Burrard Inlet, though Francis Drake may have first navigated the area circa 1579. The first-known Europeans to step foot on Vancouver land were North West Company trader Simon Fraser and his crew, who in 1808 sailed from the east down the Fraser River. In 1858, the Fraser Gold Rush saw 25,000 men pass through nearby New Westminster on their way to Fraser Canyon. Vancouver’s first European settlement dates to 1862 at McCleery’s Farm on the Fraser River. In present-day North Vancouver, a sawmill was established the following year. Captain Edward Stamp built more sawmills, with Hastings Mill forming the eventual city’s nucleus. English-Canadian John Deighton established a makeshift tavern close to Hastings Mill, in what would become known as Gastown. Nicknamed “Gassy Jack” due to his talkative nature and storytelling ability, Deighton built his Globe Saloon with the help of idle sawmill workers, who, in exchange, were given all the whisky they could drink in one sitting. With the establishment of Granville townsite, which would later become the townsite of Vancouver, the Globe Saloon was demolished in the 1870s. In the 1880s, installation of the Canadian Pacific Railway diminished Hastings Mill’s central role at the settlement, though the mill remained important to the local economy until its closure in the 1920s. A relatively young city, Vancouver was incorporated on April 6, 1886, around which time the first transcontinental train arrived. Vancouver was named after British Royal Navy officer George Vancouver, who explored and charted North America’s northwest Pacific Coast. On June 13, 1886, the Great Vancouver Fire razed the entire city. As a result, the Vancouver Fire Department was established in the same year, and the city rebuilt quickly. From 1881 to 1911, Vancouver’s population grew from around 1,000 to 20,000. In the 1890s, Woodward’s, Spencer’s, and Hudson’s Bay department stores formed the core of the city’s retail sector, with fur becoming a hot item. Logging, railway commerce, sugar refining and seaport exports remained major economic contributors into the 20th century. Labor strikes were prevalent in the early 1900s. Internment work camps were set up during the Great Depression. During World War I, alcohol was prohibited in the city, and thereafter opium became a rising problem in the Chinatown and Japantown areas. As a consequence of the attack on Pearl Harbor, Vancouver’s Japanese-Canadian population was either interned or deported and was never allowed to return, resulting in Japantown’s demise.

Seaside in Canada’s westernmost province of British Columbia, Vancouver is home to around 660,000 “Vancouverites”. One of Canada’s, as well as the world’s, most livable cities, Vancouver ranks as Canada’s highest in terms of population density, albeit second-highest behind Toronto in cost of living. The Port of Vancouver is America’s fourth-largest port  by tonnage. Forestry and tourism are the area’s largest industries today. In 2017, over 10 million people visited the city. Vancouver Island, which shields the city from the Pacific Ocean, is the largest by area and most populous island along the Americas’ entire western coastline, while Stanley Park is one of North America’s largest parks. Visible from most areas in the city, the northerly North Shore Mountains rise to a height of 6,663 feet. Southeasterly, Washington state’s snow-capped Mount Baker volcano can be seen on clear days. Home to one of Canada’s mildest and most temperate climates, Vancouver experiences warm summers and mild winters. Summer highs average in the low 70s degrees Fahrenheit, while winters remain above freezing. Additional points of interest include Vogue Theatre, Commodore Ballroom, Gastown, Granville Entertainment District, Downtown Vancouver, Granville Island, Chinatown, Harbour Centre, VIFF Centre, Pacific Coliseum, Port of Vancouver, Robson Square, Lions Gate Bridge and University of British Columbia. Local foods entail oysters and other seafoods to include salmon, halibut, sablefish, prawns, crab and more. Wine of course pairs well with seafood and is found especially at Vancouver Island vineyards, while craft beer is well-regarded throughout the city. A gin-based cocktail known as the “Vancouver” consists of sweet vermouth, Benedictine, orange bitters and lemon peels. With some background information on the area, we’re ready for hotels in Vancouver that will help make for a remarkable experience.
