Delta Pinnacle Hotel, Vancouver, B.C., Canada P328
 
A Top Pick in the Area
 
Vancouver is one of our favorite cities. The city is beautiful. It has a huge variety of shops and quality restaurants. Above all, people are very friendly. This hotel reinforced the great hospitality that we've enjoyed here.

The view of harbor from room 2607

The Delta Pinnacle is located downtown near the cruise ship terminal. Many of the shops and restaurants are within walking distance. The famous Robson Street shops are four blocks slightly up the hill. Eatons department store is about the same distance.

The hotel room has many thoughtful and useful details. The clock radio has a CD player. We used it after shopping at the Virgin Megastore. The second telephone was a cordless on the night stand between the two beds. The bathroom has both a tub AND a separate shower. Q-tips, cotton balls, magnifying mirror, scale and bath salts were provided in addition to the normally expected items.

Even an umbrella was in the closet just in case of rain. The only two items to the negative was that the room was rather small and that the toilet was too close to the wall.

The Signature Club level room included continental breakfast at the Signature

Lounge. Complimentary Hors d'oeuvres were served in the evenings.

The staff at the Signature Lounge was excellent. They answered many questions from all the guests and made dinner resevation for us at a nearby restaurant. Because of the concierge's reservation call and his note we actually received a complimentary appetizer at that restaurant!

The quality of the items offered at the Lounge was excellent. The cranberry scones in the mornings and the roasted vegetables in the evenings were fantastic.

The buffet at Signature Lounge

View from Signature Lounge toward North Vancouver

The Signature Lounge was available to guests anytime. Some in our party played cards while enjoying the view of the harbor.

The going price for this level of luxury was about $250 Canandian or about US$165. With parking, taxes (refundable) and incidentals the room added up to about US$200. However, given the metropolitan location, the level of service and the amenities it was very reasonable.

We will likely return to Delta Pinnacle when we come to Vancouver again.
