Luxury Hotel
Vancouver's most luxurious hotel to open since Shangri-La is located directly opposite the Four Seasons Vancouver that's home to our favorite post-Whistler brunch with direct access to the Pacific Centre Mall and Holt Renfrew. First opened in 1927, the Hotel Georgia was long Vancouver's hottest hotel that hosted everyone from Elvis Presley, Nat "King" Cole, Katharine Hepburn and British royalty. The Georgian revival includes a full-service Rosewood-managed hotel as well as a series of private residences unveiled in 2011.
Visitors arrive to a grand lobby reminiscent of its prohibition-era legacy with deco details and most glamorous of check-in areas. Ebony wood paneling is trimmed in 18k gold with shiny marble floors and modern arrangement of crystal chandeliers. The in-house eatery, Hawksworth, is one of the city's best kitchens with regional menu by renowned chef David Hawksworth and more Canadian vibe than Market at the Shangri-la. In addition to a stylish lobby lounge and forthcoming nightclub lounge with jazz-era evening entertainment , the hotel is home to Sense, a Rosewood Spa with indoor swimming pool with grand 20s details.
The Room
Upon opening, Rosewood Hotel Georgia is immediately become Vancouver’s top hotel positioned opposite the city's top shopping draw and forgettable Four Seasons property in need of an architectural revamp. The location provides business and media travelers with a fashionable, central address with line-up of upscale accommodations that merge sophisticated interiors with vintage architecture details. Designed as a private residence hotel, the 155 rooms and suites lean more towards a NY or London sensibility than the eco-minded hotel rooms of many Vancouver boutique hotels, a color palette of light blues, ivory and chocolate adorn lux furnishings and bathrooms with spa showers and endless marble. Those looking for the best room in the house should seek-out one of the hotel's premier accommodations, namely the Terrace Suites with two bedrooms and a private rooftop terrace offering skyline views, plunge pool and private garden.
