10 Best Affordable Hotels in Vancouver, Canada (2025) | Condé Nast Traveler

"I noticed the boutique’s striking entry — marble-framed doors and a futuristic bell-shaped light shaft — and felt the hotel's modern small-scale charm; with just 96 rooms it helped define Yaletown’s boutique hotel scene after opening in 2002. The street-facing lobby-level bar draws fashionable twenty- and thirty-somethings, and the rooms are all different and often quirky (one suite mixes a lizard-skin-print Louis XIV chair with a modern velvet sectional under a giant photorealistic image of blood-red lips); the hotel is also mentioned elsewhere as a trendy choice frequented by notable past guests." - Bianca Bujan
