Romantic Vancouver Hotels and Accommodation
Tips on Romantic Downtown Vancouver Hotels, and Info on Vancouver BC Accommodation
Let’s tell you what we know about Vancouver hotels, and try to answer some of the most asked questions about accommodation here in downtown Vancouver BC…

We often are asked about the best place to stay in Vancouver, hotels closest to Stanley Park and the Cruise Ship terminals, Vancouver Boutique hotels, and the best deal on 5-star Vancouver hotels and accommodation.
Prices for Vancouver BC hotels are generally quite good. There are lots of mid-priced hotels in Vancouver available downtown, and they’re close to lots of attractions. A splurge for 1 or 2 nights can put you in a very romantic suite with an incredible view of the mountains and sea!
5 Star Hotels in Downtown Vancouver
The list is actually longer than this, but these are some of the luxury Vancouver hotels that we've seen and really like. (Please note: while some of these properties are not officially 5-star, they offer what many couples would consider comparable levels of service and amenities).
Wedgewood Hotel & Spa - One of the most romantic luxury hotels in Vancouver. Deluxe bedding, chocolates and wine greet you in the elegant rooms. Reviews of the Wedgewood Hotel rave about the full service spa, room service, and the Bacchus lounge (we loved it too!)

Pan Pacific Vancouver Hotel - As seen on all the postcards, 5 star luxury, ocean & mountain views. Reviews for the Pan Pacific Vancouver all like the scenic location, but some note the hotel's atmosphere is a bit like a convention center (which is what is under the sails at adjoining Canada Place!)
The Georgian Court - Steam room & fitness center, wireless intenet, and luxury rooms with Aveda amenities. Other extras include bathrobes, slippers and digital in-room safes.

Tips on The Best Place to Stay in Vancouver
Here’s some advice when deciding on Vancouver BC accommodation:
- Hotels in downtown Vancouver are the best choice for easy access to shopping, restaurants, Stanley Park, and Vancouver tourist attractions such as Gastown, Granville Island, and North Vancouver attractions like Capilano Suspension Bridge and Grouse Mountain.
- Hotels in Burnaby and New Westminster are far from downtown
Vancouver. They are cheaper, but you’re further away from all the attractions in Vancouver.
- In Vancouver, Granville Street between the 1000 and 1300 blocks can be a rather undesirable area, especially at night.
- Richmond, BC hotels are closer to the airport, if that’s important to you.
- Distance from the airport to downtown Vancouver hotels: About 14 km’s (8 miles). Trip takes ½ hour by taxi or shuttle bus.
