Searching for the best Vancouver hotels? Here Is the ranking of the top 10 best Vancouver hotels based on traveler's reviews....

Vancouver B.C. is the largest city in western Canada and the 3rd largest metropolitan area in Canada with a metro population of 2.6 million people. Vancouver is consistently rated one of the top cities in the world to visit and live in. The scenery is spectacular in the city as the high rise buildings of downtown Vancouver are set against rugged snow capped peaks that rise dramatically to the north of town.

Over the last 20 years Vancouver has become a top cruise ship port and many people opt to stay in one of the best Vancouver hotels for a night or two to take in the city. With interesting places to explore like Gastown and Granville Island there is much to see and do, not to mention Stanley Park and the Vancouver Aquarium.

Vancouver & Stanley Park

The city of Vancouver has built the city to try and avoid sprawl by building up, hence the incredible number of highrise buildings for a relatively smaller sized city. The city of Vancouver and it's suburbs have grown tremendously in part to the influx of Asians, in particular Chinese. A surge of Chinese migration occurred before Hong Kong was relinquished by the U.K. back to China. Immigration laws in Canada are still very favorable for wealthy Chinese to relocate in Vancouver.

The Rosewood Georgia is a special hotel which may very well become the number one hotel in Vancouver. Originally built in 1921, the Georgia has hosted many celebrities over the years and has just reopened after a major renovation, it looks spectacular. Having just reopened it is too early to give it the top spot just yet, maybe next year.
