A proud recipient of the 4 Green Key rating, guests can sleep easy knowing that the hotel is committed to reducing its environmental impact. Ideally-located for trips to Granville Island, cycling through the park or seeing Chinatown, this hotel is perfect for anyone looking to arrive in Vancouver and have everything at their disposal.

With dramatic scenery at every turn, it's hard not to feel invigorated by the mountain air and sea breeze just by being here but just in case, the hotel's Vida Spa blends ancient Ayurveda techniques with Western philosophies to reenergise any weary souls. Try the couples' massage or a spot of Ayurvedic cleansing. Alternatively, hit the running trails or hire a bike and head into the park. For anyone wanting to exercise indoors, head to the gym for some treadmill action or a dip in either the indoor and outdoor pools.
