The 5 Best Hotels for Families in Vancouver, BC
1. Shangri-La Vancouver (luxury)
Ideally located just a block from the bustling Robson Street with its abundant shopping, dining and cultural options, and within easy walking distance of majestic Stanley Park, this hotel also features an outdoor pool and hot tub. An on-site grocery store at the property entrance carries my favorite oatmeal chocolate chip cookies in the city.
2. Hilton Vancouver Downtown (midrange)
The rooms are spacious, tastefully decorated, and all have a full kitchenette. Youngsters get a exceptional welcome gift upon arrival. A great outdoor pool is heated to a relaxed 83 degrees (29 degrees Celsius). The Robson Street situation makes shopping and an assortment of dining choices steps away. Rogers Arena and BC Place are within convenient walking distance making it great for concerts and hockey and football games.
3. Granville Island Hotel (midrange)
Situated within walking distance of enjoyable parks, playgrounds and scenic waterfront paths, the hotel is excellently located on Granville Island near the renowned Granville Island market. Guests can easily access downtown Vancouver or excursions to Stanley Park and the interactive Science World museum via the frequent Aquabus water taxi services across False Creek. This makes for an outstanding accommodation with a prime setting well-suited for family trips.
4. Auberge Vancouver Hotel (midrange)
This represents good value for travelers as the hotel includes an enjoyable pool area and spacious suites equipped with kitchens and living rooms as well as independent bedrooms suitable for families. The downtown Vancouver location places many cruise terminals and shopping districts within comfortable walking distance, though the hotel street can feel deserted after dark.
5. Fairmont Vancouver Airport (luxury)
I usually don’t advise airport lodgings as a spot to stay but this is such a wonderful hotel: pool, hot tub, incredible views, and great breakfast that I’m making an exception. It’s located right in the international terminal and is a short walk to the Skytrain which can have you downtown in 20 minutes. Or sit in your room and watch planes land and depart. If you’re in Vancouver for 2 nights or more you would want to stay in downtown Vancouver, but if your visit is just one night (or a long layover) and you’re arriving and departing by plane this is a great choice).
