Discover
- Discover Hotel Belmont Vancouver MGallery’s unique Edwardian-era architectural motifs. John Parr and Thomas Fee of Vancouver-based architectural firm “Parr & Fee” spear-headed the design. Parr and Fee worked on a number of buildings in Vancouver during their partnership, which lasted from 1899 to 1912. Other heritage buildings designed by Parr & Fee include Hotel Europe, Glen Brae Manor (today known as Canuck Place), Dunsmuir Hotel, and the iconic Vancouver Block building.
- Wonder at the art collection displayed throughout the hotel. Curated by international luxury art advisory firm Farmboy Fine Arts, the art hearkens back to the cultural history and heritage of Vancouver with a splash of the unexpected, just like the hotel itself.
- Venture into The Basement, Hotel Belmont Vancouver MGallery’s nostalgic epicenter where funky flamingo wallpaper and expressive neon signs provide the perfect atmosphere for a fun evening. Dynamic and incredibly photogenic, this multi-dimensional space includes a full bar, a bubblegum pink dessert window kiosk, arcade and table-top games, and a bowling alley.
Explore
- Explore the art exhibitions at The Vancouver Art Gallery. Located just a short walk from Hotel Belmont Vancouver MGallery, The Vancouver Art Gallery collection contains outstanding examples of a century’s worth of art produced in British Columbia, from 19th-century mountain and coastal landscapes to recent works of photoconceptualism by renowned Vancouver artists.
- Stroll through the heart of Yaletown, Vancouver’s eclectic neighborhood located just a five-minute walk from Hotel Belmont Vancouver MGallery. Once the Western terminus for the Canadian Pacific Railway, the Yaletown of today primarily dates to 1986 when Vancouver hosted the World’s Fair. This chic area is home to acclaimed restaurants and eclectic shops set along heritage brick walkways. Considered one of the most beautiful parts of Vancouver, Yaletown is the perfect escape from the busy city center.
- Spend a day exploring nearby Granville Island, located across False Creek from Yaletown. Explore the English Bay on a rental boat, ride the False Creek Ferry, or take a tour on the Aquabus. Home to the Emily Carr University of Art and Design, Granville Island is Vancouver’s epicenter for artistic innovation. Numerous art exhibits and studios for everything from glassblowing to creative paper crafting can be found there.
Experience
- Experience the natural beauty of Vancouver’s famous Stanley Park and Seawall. An absolute staple of any visit to Vancouver, these landmarks provide the most scenic and beautiful walks that the city has to offer. As Vancouver's first park, with its ever-blooming gardens, pristine coastal areas and roughly 500,000 cedar, fir and hemlock trees, Stanley Park is a magnificent oasis and the perfect city escape.
- Watch a hockey game at Rogers Arena, home to the Vancouver Canucks. In 2010, Rogers Arena was temporarily renamed Canada Hockey Place when it hosted the ice hockey events for the Winter Olympics. Canada is considered the birthplace of ice hockey, and the sport is so popular that it is seen as an integral aspect of Canadian culture and national identity.
- Enjoy the numerous nearby venues in Vancouver’s Entertainment District including The Orpheum and the Queen Elizabeth Theatre. The Queen Elizabeth Theatre is named for its most famous patron, Queen Elizabeth II, who attended a concert there when the theatre opened in July 1959. At over 90 years old, the Orpheum is an incredible setting for shows of all kinds and has hosted millions of people since its opening in 1927. This opulent venue is a great way to see your favorite artist or experience the magic of the internationally renowned Vancouver Symphony Orchestra – the largest performing arts organization in Western Canada.
Taste
- Taste the nostalgia-inspired cuisine at Hotel Belmont Vancouver MGallery’s signature restaurant, The Living Room. A home away from home, The Living Room serves up creative twists on classic comfort foods that are sure to transport guests back to their childhoods. Particularly popular is the Belmonteroni, handmade beef ravioli topped with tomato ragu and pecorino cheese, and ingeniously served in a Belmont-branded can.
- Indulge in a savory plate of Poutine, considered by many to be Canada’s national dish. Originating in Quebec sometime during the 1950s, poutine was originally dismissed by culinary connoisseurs. Nevertheless, the dish’s popularity continued to grow, both throughout Canada and internationally. Today, guests at the Hotel Belmont Vancouver MGallery can enjoy this Canadian classic in The Living Room. The Belmont Poutine is made with thin-cut fries, squeaky cheese curds, and demi-glaze gravy. Guests can add a contemporary twist by subbing curly fries and adding chicken or pulled pork.
- Enjoy a craft cocktail at the Hotel Belmont Vancouver MGallery’s nostalgic epicenter, The Basement. Guests can order from The Basement’s bubblegum pink window kiosk which serves up a whole host of photogenic treats and cocktails. Spicy Mango Margaritas and Belmont’s Specialty Sangria are popular orders, along with their delicious ice cream sandwiches and “Rose All Day” popsicles.
