Victorian Hotel

The Victorian Hotel is a heritage hotel operating since 1898 at 514 Homer Street, between Gastown and Yaletown in downtown Vancouver, British Columbia. The location puts guests within a short walk of Gastown's cobbled streets and Steam Clock, Waterfront Station, Yaletown's restaurants and the Granville Street shopping area. The building is one of the older hotel structures in the city, with a brick exterior and European-style interiors that reflect its Victorian-era origins. Room types include standard rooms and double rooms, many of them compact with shared or private bathroom arrangements typical of a European-style pension, so guests should confirm the room type when booking. Amenities listed include wifi and breakfast. The breakfast is a simple included meal, and the many cafes and restaurants of Gastown and Yaletown provide additional dining within a few blocks. Typical nightly rates run from about CAD $110 to $190, making it one of the more affordable options in the central core. Service is friendly and informal, and the hotel appeals to budget-conscious travellers, solo visitors and those who value heritage atmosphere over modern amenities. There is no pool, spa or fitness centre, and rooms are modest. The central position is the main advantage, since transit links at Waterfront Station and Granville Station connect to the airport, North Shore and suburbs. The surrounding area is urban and mixed in character, so visitors may prefer to travel by taxi or transit after dark. Overall the hotel suits travellers who want a central, affordable and characterful base.
