Empress--When we visited Vancouver 2 years ago, we stayed at the Waterfront Centre Hotel. Right on the waterfront at Canada Place. Had a very nice room for the 4 of us (2 adults, 2 kids). Hotel was very nice, and close to Joe Forte's Seafood and Chop house, a very enjoyable restaurant, where we had great fresh NW seafood. We used the Entertainment Book discount, and got a good rate on the room. BTW, the current version of the Entertainment Book shows the Delta Vancouver and the Four Seasons as participating in their 50% off program. Definitely worth checking out, to see if that rate would be available.
