Fodor's Expert Review Hotel Grand Pacific

Rooms at the Hotel Grand Pacific are large and surprisingly quiet, with deep soaker tubs, floor-to-ceiling windows, balconies, and a chic monochromatic color scheme. Upper-floor rooms have views of the harbor, the Parliament Buildings, or the mountains, which you can admire from your private balcony, big enough to sit out on and perhaps even share with a resting seagull or two. There are eight fully accessible rooms including roll-in showers and automatic doors. The Pacific Restaurant serves Asian-influenced Pacific Northwest fare and hosts a popular high tea featuring blends from Silk Road Tea. Its health club offers day passes (C$18) to non-guests.
