Resort style elegance and ocean views beside iconic Stanley Park
Only the picturesque seawall separates this downtown luxury resort from the stunning 1,000-acre Stanley Park. Snow-capped mountains serve as a backdrop for the gorgeous forested urban park and crystal blue harbor that flank either side of the hotel. Perhaps inspired by the abundance of natural beauty, every detail of the Westin Bayshore is lovely and well executed. The highest quality linens and exclusive Heavenly Beds, unbelievable ocean vistas and absolute pampering at the on-site spa wrap guests in splendor at every turn.
Highlights
- Gorgeous Stanley Park to one side, fantastic harbor views to the other
- Named on Condé Nast Traveler's Gold List in 2002
- Whale watching tours depart from the on-site dock
Rooms
Recently redecorated guestrooms and suites of the Westin Bayshore showcase an earthy palette and classic, comfortable furnishings. Views from floor to ceiling windows, sliding glass doors and private balconies take center stage in many of the rooms--it's hard to beat the incredible mountain, ocean and city scenery. All rooms have the hotel's signature Heavenly Bed (designed for a great night's sleep in exquisite comfort), large TV and high-speed Internet access (fees apply).
Features
This phenomenal location offers guests an immediate connection with nature while enjoying the excitement of a cosmopolitan city. At the Westin Bayshore, guests are right on the water, just steps from the gorgeous 1,000-acre urban forest bordering the city and a short walk to trendy boutiques, fascinating plays and world-class cuisine. Enjoy the marina views at the hotel's on-site restaurants: Currents at Bayshore (reservations recommended) or the more casual Seawall Bar & Grill. The refined Vida Spa blends the ancient Indian science of Ayurveda with the best in Western healing philosophies to help guests relax and rejuvenate.

Wonderful location, great room!
This was by far one of the best hotels that I have stayed in a long time. I found all the amenities that I required, being disabled, they provided me with a beautiful suite with an amazing shower where I could sit while bathing and not worry about falling. The room was extremily clean and the service was excellent. Plus it was at a prime location, where you could just walk to beautiful restaurants or museums, or wherever I felt like doing.Thank you so much.

Vancouver good times
I liked your hotel it was nice and had a lot of options I felt that the brekfast buffet was a bit to pricey and that I had to pay for parking was not mentioned anywhere, Try to reduce the parking pay a bit.

WESTIN BAYSHORE, JUNE 28-JULY 5, 2009
The Westin Bayshore is in a great location on the West End of Vancouver. We had wonderful service from the Consierge and also the onsite City Tour staff who helped us plan some great outings. There are whale watching, plane tours, bike rentals and Stanley Park all easily within walking distance, as well as tons of restaurants, and coffee shops. Hotel staff was wonderful, and we liked the "green" options of easily letting maid service know when towels or bedding need laundering. Heavenly beds are as advertised: Heavenly!

Money-saving tip:
Short walk from hotel
There are "Hop On Hop Off" buses that provide overall city tours, good for first time visit, first day overview of the city. Ours was $29 first day, $6 add on second day, and goes to all the main sections of Vancouver: Chinatown, Gastown, Canada Place, etc. There is also a $2 per person/day trolley inside Stanley Park- which is also fine except often packed during peak hours. (Ignore ads for "Free" Trolley) City bus transit is excellent, $2.50 for 90 minutes w/ transfers, across all types of city transit (sky train, sea bus, city bus). Best inexpensive (by Vancouver standards) lunch: JapaDogs, just a short walk down the Seawalk!!

Nice change from daily work
I loved the room, but wished they would have provided shoes for the indoor pool and on tv it would have been nice to see more about the possibilities of the hotel. Instead almost every other minute they did marketing about their HD movies. But nevertheless I loved the Westin despite their expensive breakfast buffet and the very expensive internet possibility which made me having vacation without connection to the world.
