Thanks for all of your responses. I have one more question for those of you who have experience w/ the Four Seasons.

I've booked at the rate (103 USD) mentioned above. This got me a Superior Room (Queen Bed, 350 sqft).

I just learned I also have the following options:
Deluxe Corner (206 USD) - King Bed, 468 sqft
Premier (223 USD) - King, 550 sqft

Is the better room worth the extra $$? It's only for one night, and I doubt we'd be spending that much time in the room, so my initial notion is no, but I'd like to hear opinions. Thanks.

Personally I'd just put the money towards going out for a nice dinner or something. It hardly seems worth double for a room that's a little bit bigger.

Yeah, I tend to agree. Thanks.

I would agree with the others on the forum. Do not really splurge on a larger room at the Four Seasons.


Some places to eat:

Bishops: Probably my favorite restaurant in Vancouver. It's up there with the French Laundry in Napa and that says a lot. Pacific Northwest Food. Perfection. Best Restaurant in Vancouver 8 Years in a row. Reservations are needed. 2183 W. 4th (604) 738-2025
Bishop's Website

Vijs - Best Indian-esque food in Vancouver. No reservation policy so be ready to wait at least 10 minutes to get a table. Its worth the wait, the food is an out of world experience. Vijs Website

If Chinese food is your thing, and I'm not talking about sweet and sour pork and chow mein head to Kirin on Alberni. You can have a decent meal there for about $60 CAD + tip. Kirin's Website

If you want a nice romantic meal in Vancouver head to Villa Del Lupo.

Don't forget to cross the street from the Four Seasons and head to SenSes Bakery in the lobby of the Hotel Georgia. Try Thomas Haas' Chocolate Sparkle Cookies. (More like the best truffle you have ever eaten than a cookie) James Beard worthy pastries and baked goods. Senses Bakery Website

(right across from the Four Seasons)


Hope you have a wonderful time in our beautiful city!

Just a note that Senses is in the "lobby" of the Crowne Plaza Hotel Georgia. I'd skip breakkie at the FS and go here for a nice cappucino and some croissants/pain au chocolat..... simply divine!!

I have to disagree here. After fond memories of a fine meal from my first visit to Vancouver years ago, I've been to Bishop's twice in the last year and have been roundly disappointed. Although execution is fine, the menu is tired and the flavors were uninspired. Every time I pass by I want to go back in and try again because I know they have the raw materials to put on a great meal, but at this point--and with all the other options in VanCity--I would not recommend it to a visitor.

I agree with that!

If the OP would give a hint at what type of food they are looking for I've a wealth of suggestions I can make.
