In a city where stylish hotels have become the norm, Vancouver’s Pacific Palisades could easily be just another hotel. Luckily for guests, it’s not.
This boutique hotel’s sleek, sexy and hip decor sets it apart, and it offers a much-needed break from the ordinary.
The lobby plays coffee-shop cool jazz and bright yellows and apple greens with shots of red decorate the walls. This creates a fresh, hip look that simultaneously stimulates and relaxes. The Honeywood furnishings accented with chrome feel more South Beach than Vancouver – perfect for a traveller weary of Vancouver’s winter season.
The details don’t stop at the front door. Unlike many neighbouring hotels who think big only for big spenders, Pacific Palisades envisioned big rooms, and big views for everyone. It also paid big attention to complimentary features such as an evening wine reception, Starbucks Coffee in every room and high-speed internet access for late night surfing. This luxury hotel has the ambiance of a private residence.
One bedroom suites offer a large, heated balcony with stunning views of English Bay, a spacious separate bedroom, living room and kitchen areas. And the bathroom? Oversized double sinks, a spacious vanity, amenities from Bloom Essentials Spa, incredibly fluffy robes, a large tub, bright colours, playful art, a pull out mirror, and lots of oversized towels, make it a girl’s best friend.
Mimicking the lively hues and crisp, clean lines of the lobby’s wood furniture, the suites are anything but cookie cutter. Contemporary furnishing mixed with bright greens and oranges provide the perfect backdrop to a relaxing stay in or trippy night out. The funky, functional rooms and casual yet sophisticated vibe often attract Vancouver’s film and art industry.
With chic rooms, a sultry restaurant, and a heavenly spa there is no reason to leave the hotel. But, Vancouver’s famed Robson Street is at your door step and beautiful Stanley Park is minutes away if you get cabin fever. With everything at your fingertips, all that’s left to do is relax.
The Pacific Palisades Hotel welcomes guests with impeccable service, stylish guest rooms and a fun attitude. Whether your trip is for business or pleasure, this hotel will leave you feeling like the coolest cat on the block.
