Victorian Hotel

Charming, Historic Stay Steps from Vancouver’s Music Scene

Modern convenience meets old-world charm at the Victorian Hotel, a beautifully preserved building dating back to 1898. Located just a 5-minute walk from vibrant Gastown and near downtown Vancouver's concert venues, this boutique hotel offers a unique blend of heritage character and thoughtful, eco-friendly touches. With high ceilings, hardwood floors, and antique décor, it’s a stylish, cozy home base for music lovers exploring the city.

Why Concert-goers love it

You’re just minutes from key music venues and the Granville SkyTrain station, making late-night shows and quick returns a breeze. The hotel’s downtown location means you can walk to many events, but it’s tucked onto a quieter street, giving you a peaceful space to unwind post-show. Flexible check-in at 3:00 PM and a reasonable 11:00 AM check-out time make it easy to fit your stay around your concert plans.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends looking for a stylish, central spot
• Solo travelers checking off a dream concert
• Couples turning a show into a romantic weekend
• Fans who want a quieter, charming place to recharge
• Budget-conscious music lovers who still want great style

Food and Drink Options

While the Victorian Hotel doesn’t have an on-site restaurant, it’s surrounded by Gastown’s buzzing food scene—perfect for grabbing late-night bites or a lazy brunch after a long night. Coffee makers are included in every room, and dozens of walkable cafés, pubs, and restaurants are just steps away.

Nightlife Options

You’re right next to some of Vancouver’s best nightlife. From Gastown’s live music bars to downtown lounges and craft brewpubs, you won’t need to venture far. The hotel itself is a peaceful retreat, ideal for those who want to dip into the local scene but sleep soundly afterward.

What People Say
