The rich history and beauty of the hotel, not to mention so close to amenities and ocean walks. We didn't like the fact the hotel didn't have a pool or hottub. Only thing that was missing.

Beautiful, historic hotel. Located on the water! Walking distance to Stanley Park and the Granville Island ferries. The staff were kind and helpful. The hotel bar offered many flavorful drinks! Rooms were spacious and very clean. We would definitely return! Highly recommend!
