Hotel Information: Old-fashioned service complements an avant-garde look in this twin-tower hotel (20 and 23 floors). The decor ranges from jeweled phones and hand-blown glass light fixtures to apple-green carpets and pink bathrooms. A favorite with longer-term visitors to Vancouver—especially in the movie industry—the hotel is also popular with families, thanks to the laid-back attitude and 55-foot pool.

Amenity highlights: In the atrium health club/pool complex, there's a range of activities—from lazing in a spa to shooting hoops on the patio. Guests also are invited to borrow a book from the lobby's library or meet other travelers at a daily reception featuring local wines in Art + Soul, the in-house art gallery. Zin, the hotel's restaurant and lounge, is a favored spot for movie-industry "wrap parties." The concierge specializes in Vancouver for families.

Insider tip: Barclay Heritage Square, located 3 blocks from the hotel, is the site of nine historic homes built between 1890 and 1908. It's a good place to see what the West End of Vancouver looked like before the skyscrapers came to town. Centerpiece is the Roedde House Museum, housed in a Queen Anne Revival-style mansion. Guided tours are available.
