The Renaissance Vancouver Harbourside offers a fantastic range of facilities; including an indoor swimming pool, a whirlpool, a sauna and 24 hour fitness centre. There is also an on-site restaurant known as the P2B Bistro and Bar which serves up fresh, local cuisine in a modern but casual setting.
Here you will be staying in one of the city view guestrooms which are all air conditioned and feature a 36" flat screen Cable TV with premium movie channels, radio, telephone with voicemail, an alarm clock, iron and ironing board and hairdryer.
A holiday in Vancouver would not be complete without soaking up the atmosphere in Granville Island; complete with waterfront restaurants, galleries, theatres, shops, cafes and a spectacular fresh food market. Here the unique atmosphere will entertain and inspire you while you explore the sights and sounds through the bustling streets filled with vibrant people - this is a fantastic day out for the whole family.
