Two Queen beds on the 7th floor with a wonderful view of English Bay in VancouverVancouver's only beach-side hotel property.

The Sylvia Hotel is a designated heritage building, ideally located on English Bay, beside Stanley Park and just 5 minutes from Downtown Vancouver. Built in 1912, the Sylvia Hotel is a city landmark and one of Vancouver's greatest treasures. The location is a favorite for business travelers wanting to be out of the busy downtown core, for families vacationing on the beach or for romantic getaways. The Sylvia Hotel is definitely one of Vancouver's best kept secrets.
 

"What guests to Vancouver are saying about the Sylvia Hotel"

Guest Review Jul 1, 2008
The Sylvia is either to your taste or not. Glitzy it's not. The decor is distinctly anti-modern and rooms and hallways exude a well worn comfort. But the rooms are also large and bright, the housekeeping just fine... Reviews of The Sylvia Hotel by English Bay Vancouver.

Guest Review Apr 19, 2008
It's clear from some reviews in the past few months that the Sylvia was going through some tough times as this old hotel remodeled the lobby... Reviews of The Sylvia Hotel by English Bay Vancouver.

 
Vancouver Hotel Location ideally located on English Bay, beside Stanley Park and just 5 minutes from Downtown Vancouver

The old fashioned character and friendly service gives travelers a home away from home. The Sylvia Hotel offers a fantastic location, great value, superb quality with a wonderful beachside dining experience!

The Sylvia Hotel was designed as an apartment building in 1912 for a Mr. Goldstein, and named in honour of his daughter Sylvia. Our beachside lounge was the first cocktail bar in Vancouver and opened in 1954.
