Located in the heart of downtown Vancouver, Rosewood Hotel Georgia offers its guests one of the best locations — if not the best — for exploring the British Columbian City. An iconic hotel opened in 1927, Rosewood Hotel Georgia was once a playground for the movie stars of the early 20th century. It recently underwent a complete overhaul, reducing the number of rooms and revamping the lobby areas with a fantastic contemporary art collection that showcases many of Canada’s top painters and sculptors.
The chic boutique hotel also now offers tastefully appointed rooms with luxe touches such as Pratesi linens and heated bathroom floors, and a superb staff — including notably outstanding concierges — who will instantly make you feel at home, from offering you use of the hotel’s chauffeured Bentley to providing outstanding restaurant recommendations.
- Situated on the corner of Howe and Georgia streets in the heart of downtown Vancouver, you really can’t ask for a better location. You’re literally across the street from the Vancouver Art Gallery, a block from bustling Robson Street, the city’s prime shopping destination and a short walk to gorgeous Stanley Park.
- The hotel’s been around since 1927 but recently underwent a major facelift, and the results are stunning. The lobby still retains an old world feel thanks to wood paneling and Art Deco detailing, but colorful modern art adds a chic, youthful feel to the space.
- The concierges here are phenomenal. Not only will they give you spot-on dining, shopping and sight-seeing recommendations, they’ll even follow up with you each day to make sure you enjoyed yourself.
- Whether you’re enjoying a classic cocktail at 1927 Lobby Lounge (try the signature Hotel Georgia — it’s divine) or digging into the seared sablefish for room service, know that the food and drink served at the hotel is excellent, much of it locally grown and sustainable.
- Rosewood Hotel Georgia is a great spot to bring the whole family. The kids' room service menu, for example, even offers babies a range of local, seasonal and organic fruit and vegetable purees, served warm and with an infant-friendly bowl and spoon.
- You’ll find an amazing art collection right inside the hotel featuring works by contemporary Canadian artists like David Robinson, Alan Wood and Jack Shadbolt.
- Take advantage of the fragrance butler. The hotel has curated a selection of perfumes for you to use— simply call the operator and within minutes, a butler will arrive at your door with a tray of assorted fragrances for you to spritz on.
- Chic boutique hotels aren’t necessarily known for being the best venue to bring along the kids, but Rosewood Hotel Georgia is different. You can also easily request items like en suite wireless baby monitors, kid-sized bath robes, baby skincare products and in-room bottle warmers.
- The 156 recently renovated rooms and suites exude a warm, residential charm, showcasing a soothing color palette and tasteful furnishings that evoke the comforts of home.
- The spa-inspired bathrooms, adorned with exquisite marble and heated floors, offer a serene oasis, complete with walk-in rain showers and spacious soaking tubs.
- The signature suites, The Lord Stanley Suite and The Rosewood Suite, boast private rooftop terraces with breathtaking city skyline views, plunge pools and private gardens.
The inviting 1927 Lounge has been expanded and refreshed with local artwork and a delightful menu. The restaurant serves refined dishes for lunch and beyond, as well as exquisitely crafted cocktails. Elegant seating and live music performances create a sophisticated and welcoming ambiance.
- Visit celebrated Vancouver chef David Hawksworth’s eponymous restaurant to feast on a bevy of local ingredients cooked in a contemporary style befitting of the chic environs.
The center of the hotel lobby has been transformed into The Georgia Bar, a space offering balanced cocktails, small bites, whiskey tastings and other special experiences.
