The Best Hotels in Vancouver, Canada
The StarTripper Journal presents the best places to stay in Vancouver,
both international luxury and boutique choices.
Our two ladies in Vancouver are professional travellers.
Vancouver, the seaport of British Columbia, the third-largest film production centre in North America (nickname Hollywood North), among the top-ten of the world's most liveable cities, a vibrant nightlife scene, whether it be food and dining, or bars and nightclubs.
Shopping – Vancouver doesn’t disappoint! As a cosmopolitan metropolis, shopping here runs from international designers and popular brands in shop-‘til-you-drop malls, through to local designers and one-of-a-kind craft studios in unique neighbourhoods. You’ll find everything you’re looking for, as well as plenty of things you didn’t even know that you needed!
Vancouver’s nightlife scene is so exciting as you want it to be, an Irish bar for a few post-dinner pints, a chic lounge for a bespoke cocktail, or cutting up the dancefloor at a nightclub? The city’s live music scene offers everything from alt-country, to old-fashioned rock ‘n roll or experimental jazz. And if you are feeling lucky - check the gaming tables at one of the casinos for a late-night adventure.
Vancouver culinary scene is exquisite. You will find the best tower of fresh seafood, the finest house-made charcuterie, the most delicious taco truck, and the best list of B.C. wines.
Currency is Canadian dollar ($) (CAD).
