Directly across from the gallery sits the Rosewood Hotel Georgia . Housed in a historic 12-storey Georgian building, the hotel has welcomed luminaries since the Jazz Age, from Marlene Dietrich to Elvis Presley, and more recently Taylor Swift.
While a stay here promises pure indulgence amid Italian linens, marble bathrooms and deep soaking tubs, you can still enjoy a taste of its opulence with lunch or cocktails. At the dazzling Art Deco lobby bar, the Georgia Bar, friendly mixologists serve impeccable cocktails refined over decades. For lunch, head upstairs to the Reflections Garden Terrace, an airy al fresco space with a retractable roof – the succulent lobster dumplings are a must.
Alternatively, make your way to the nearby Wedgewood Hotel & Spa , a locally owned boutique property and Michelin Key hotel. Unwind in the spa’s eucalyptus steam room and indulge in a range of stress-melting massages, before retreating to the hotel’s Bacchus Lounge – a private members’ club-style space complete with plush carpets, chandeliers, banquette seating and a roaring fireplace – the perfect place to curl up and toast your final evening in Vancouver.
