Wedgewood Hotel & Spa

The Wedgewood Hotel & Spa is a boutique hotel in the heart of Downtown Vancouver. Founded by Greek-born Eleni Skalbania, this family-owned property is now managed by her younger daughter, Elpie Marinakis, who has a great passion for hospitality and attention to detail. With 83 uniquely appointed guestrooms and suites, many with balconies overlooking the gardens on Robson Square. Even the standard rooms are spacious, with good city views from the 12th to 14th floors. Quality is everywhere, from the bed linens and Frette towels to the big tubs in the marble bathrooms. Add in Wi-Fi, iPad docking stations, and Nespresso coffee machines and you have all that you need. The Wedgewood’s Penthouse Suites are favourites for honeymoon couples and special occasions. The rich décor of the suites is complemented by decadent bathrooms, cosy fireplaces, and generous terraces.

With its leather armchairs, dark wood panelling and well-stocked bar, the Bacchus Restaurant has an excellent reputation for inventive, epicurean cuisine. The lounge has an understated luxury, rich fabrics, old-fashioned fireplaces, and Venetian light fixtures personally selected by the owner. On the second floor is The Spa at Wedgewood, a private retreat dedicated to health and wellbeing. Fitness enthusiasts appreciate exclusive access to a workout facility, and there’s an invigorating eucalyptus steam room and relaxation lounge. Located on fashionable Robson Square, the hotel is extremely well located.
