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.

So there they are, hotels in Vancouver that will help make for a memorable experience. We hope you have found this information valuable and most of all, that you enjoy your time in Canada!
Such a great idea. I used to travel and be okay with staying at lower end place but there is nothing like staying in a nice Air Bnb. There is just a certain level of satisfaction of traveling somewhere and being comfortable in a really nice place. I wonder if you know of any penthouse rentals that could be on a lower end. I like your idea of $170 per person for 6 people to rent out. That makes a lot of sense.
Thank you Chris. Happy travels to you.
Great post! You narrowed my list of choices when it comes to choosing the best hotels when I visit Canada someday. Reading your post left in awe because of the nice hotels you showed (along with images), it’s very enticing to stay there even for a night.
The fact you wrote the prices makes your post more valuable. In that way, I could decide with my husband the options to choose which of these hotels we like to enjoy and stay when we get there. Thank you so much for the post and your valuable opinions of each. Kudos. 🙂
Thank you very much Mecyll! Happy travels to you and yours 🙂
Staying in a comfort of a hotel or penthouse is a must during travels. All, if not most of your needs will be accommodated and it’s one thing that should he experienced during vacation or any purpose of travel. your hotel selection is great because you included the amenities, price and even places nearby that can be visited according to tourist’s preference.
Nelson Street Penthouse seems to be one of the good choices because of the great overlooking view from the room, french and japanese restaurant nearby, coastal beach you can go to and the price is just suitable for what you can get. I think its perfect for a little family or group. Thanks for the recommendation. It sure is helpful for people planning ahead for their travels.
MissusB it’s nice to see you again 🙂 Glad you appreciate the Vancouver page!
Hi! From November 27th to December 1st of this year, “Disney On Ice: Mickey’s Search Party” will be taking place in the Pacific Coliseum. The whole family is excited and wants to go. So I’ve started to search for a nice lodging for us all. We’re a group of 8 persons (2 kids and 6 grown-ups). Which one of these hotels would you recommend? Thanks.
Hi Henry, Nelson Street Penthouse might be your best bet
Some of the hotels in the can be mistaken with palace or royal residences like for example, the Le Grande Residence. But what puzzles me is that, even though this particular hotel look more elegant than the rest, it is not at the top of the list when it comes to comparing the cost per night and cost per person. Maybe others with higher price tag provides impeccable service delivery that’s worth the price.
Hi Gomer, listings generally go from highest rated to lowest rated. The higher the price, in theory the more services offered.
I am currently in the process of planning a trip to Vancouver Canada and your site has been very helpful. We plan to see the suspension bridge over the Capilano river and the Vancouver Aquarium but besides those attractions, our trip is fairly open.
I see that Rosellen Suites is very near the Aquarium. The penthouse looks amazing! I especially enjoy nature and it looks like this hotel is very near Stanley Park. This might be the perfect place for us to set up camp for our trip.
Do you know if these rooms need to be booked very far in advance to chance upon them available? Our trip is coming up fairly soon, in the next month actually. Thanks so much for the helpful details and links!
Hi Shannon, that’s great to hear! Generally you should give yourself at least 30 days to book to make sure they are available
Vancouver is my dream place to see. I love travelling but never been to Canada, and if I decide to visit this country, my first city will be definitely Vancouver.
You really choose the best Hotels in Vancouver. My preferred one is the Nelson Street Penthouse. It looks fantastic, especially the view from the window and all the facilities available around the hotel area. It’s not cheap, but I never travel alone, so it’s great to know you can accommodate there up to 8 people.
I prefer staying in clean and comfortable places instead of low-cost hotels. Afterall I can’t travel more then twice a year because of a job, so if to go for a holiday then surely staying in luxurious places is a must 🙂
Thanks for your in-depth research!
Snap Brisk, Nelson Street Penthouse is a fine choice! Happy travels out there 🙂
Last year I was in Vancouver, it was my first time in Vancouver. The staff at the Georgian Court Hotel were all incredibly pleasant, helpful, and overall professional. The room and linens were very clean. There was always coffee, cream, and tea available. If running low it was promptly replenished. Overall great experience.
Awesome post!
Regards
Thank you for the insights Jordan Smith!

Hey, I found your guide is very helpful for me to find the Best Hotels Vancouver Canada. Vancouver sits seaside on the Pacific coast and is the most populated city in British Columbia. I found Vancouver is one of the most ethnically diverse cities in Canada. If we get a chance to visit Vancouver, We will stay in Trump International Hotel & Tower. Thank you for your awesome guide.
Parveen excellent!
We all know that there are a huge number of hotels where you can stay when you travel, and it is often hard to make a choice about where you should stay. Staying at Best Western hotels works for most trips, whether it be for business or for holidays. Thanks for pointing out these best places.

Your article provides a lot of detail. I find it much more informative than a brochure. Your description of each place, together with the distances from several land marks in the area, makes it really easy to choose the best location suited for the specific customer.
Awesome images! The inclusion of the prices are also essential to ensure that clients can plan according to their budget.
