Vancouver Neighborhoods & Where to Stay
Vancouver is a beautiful city, with both the ocean and mountains close by. Because of it’s mild climate, the city is lush and green and offers a pleasant stay year round. The city is a popular vacation spot for tourism, families and groups of all ages, as well as a pleasant setting for corporate business trips. Vancouver is a culturally diverse city, and the accommodations it offers are equally as diverse. This page will give you some brief information on the neighborhoods where you’ll find our furnished accommodations. In contrast to a regular hotel, staying in furnished apartments or homes, in the neighborhood of your choice, offers you the chance to fully explore and feel at home in Vancouver. Selecting a Neighborhood Vancouver has a range of vibrant communities to choose from with some of the more popular neighborhoods being Kitsilano, The West End in downtown Vancouver, Yaletown, and Commercial Drive. Vancouver's West Side • Kitsilano Kitsilano, also known as "Kits," is located on the west side of Vancouver and borders the ocean, offering a spectacular view of the mountains and English Bay. This area has a fun and free-spirited atmosphere and is home to a large population of younger couples, new families, and students. The furnished accommodations in this area include apartments with great views of Kits Beach and the ocean. As well, Kits is known for it's fantastic heritage homes with quaint gardens and shaded tree lined streets. Fourth Avenue, the main shopping street, also is a hot night spot with great restaurants, and fun bars with a local feel. • Granville Island Granville Island is located underneath the Granville Bridge just north of 4th Avenue. The Island, which is really a reclaimed area of mudflats, features a pleasing mix of niche businesses, bookshops, bakeries, restaurants, and galleries. Check out the large Public Market, which sells excellent farm produce, cut flowers, plants, jewelry, and crafts. Granville Island is probably the best place to look for a special made-in-BC souvenir. For an extra treat, take the water taxi from behind the Public Market over to the West End. Downtown Vancouver Downtown Vancouver offers a more metropolitan experience, offering primarily apartments and condos and access to Robson Street shopping and Vancouver’s business centre. For this reason, this area may be more suited to the corporate business traveler, or the “urban nomad”. Areas within downtown include the West End, Robson Street, Yaletown and Coal Harbour. • The West End Located in downtown Vancouver, the West End is another picturesque area to stay in. It borders English Bay and is close to the Stanley Park sea wall, which is one of Vancouver’s most scenic walks. The West End is a diverse area as well, but with more upscale furnished apartments and condos with views of the water and breathtaking sunsets. The main shopping streets in the West End include Denman–with a variety of ethnic restaurants and gift shops–and Davie Street–home to Vancouver’s gay population. • Yaletown This area of downtown is very chic and trendy, with designer clothing stores, jazz bars, hip restaurants and clubs. The shopping area is quite small and is quiet during the day, but becomes a hot night spot in the evening. Most of Vancouver’s new condo development seems to be in this area, so most of the accommodations you’ll find here are newer, and quite luxurious. You’ll also have nice south-facing views of False Creek and access to Granville Island and Kits Point via the new sea wall or the water taxis that cross frequently. Vancouver's East Side • Main Street Main Street is an eclective mix of young designer boutiques, funky cafes, and excellent ethnic restaurants. The streetscape includes modern and heritage architecture. Main Street is the destination for antique hunters with at least a dozen shops between 24th and 28th Avenues. The area around Broadway and Main has become known as south Main or "SoMa." Several established Vancouver restaurants have recently moved here. New developments currently under construction include a new community centre, a new neighborhood house, and several large condo developments. • Commercial Drive Also known as “The Drive”, this is one of Vancouver’s most lively and culturally diverse areas. Located on the East side of Vancouver, Commercial Drive is home to a large Italien population, as well as many other groups. Like Kitsilano, there are still many heritage homes near Commercial. The benefits of furnished accommodation in this area are that you are close to a vast array of restaurants and venues for live music, as well as funky and unique shops, consignment stores, independent record stores and anything else out of the ordinary. |
