Welcome to Glaivorn Empire
Look, we're not gonna pretend we're some brand-new boutique spot. We've been around the block - literally over a century of it. What that means for you is we've had plenty of time to figure out what makes a hotel stay truly special.
Our building's got character you just can't replicate, but we've made sure every modern convenience you'd expect is here too. Fast WiFi? Check. That fancy espresso machine in your room? You bet. Original crown moldings from 1888? Those too.
Original architecture that tells a story
Every comfort tech can provide
What We Offer
We've spent years perfecting the details so you don't have to think about anything except enjoying your stay.
Each suite's got its own personality - high ceilings, original details, plus all the tech and comfort you'd expect. Some have views that'll make your Instagram followers jealous.
Our chef's been with us for years and honestly? The guy's a genius. The menu changes with the seasons, but the quality never does. Late-night lounge service is pretty epic too.
Sometimes you just need to unwind, right? Our spa team knows their stuff - from deep tissue massages to facials that actually work. The hydrotherapy pool's a personal favorite.
Whether it's a big corporate thing or your wedding day, we've got spaces that impress. The grand ballroom's stunning, and our AV setup is actually reliable (we know how rare that is).
Our concierge team lives and breathes Vancouver. Need restaurant recs? Tickets to something sold out? The best hidden spots locals actually go to? They've got you covered.
Midnight craving? Early breakfast before your flight? We're here for it all. The kitchen's always going, and yes, the food actually tastes good at 3am - we've tested it extensively.
Location Matters
We're on Empire Boulevard - fancy name, but what it really means is you're close to everything worth seeing. Stanley Park's a quick walk, downtown's right there, and the waterfront? Yeah, we can see it from here.
People often tell us they picked us for the location as much as the hotel itself. Can't say we blame 'em - it's pretty perfect.

Guest Experiences
"Stayed here for our anniversary and wow, they really made it special. The suite was gorgeous - loved how they kept the old-world details but everything worked perfectly. Staff remembered our names by day two which was a nice touch."
"I'm here for business quarterly and honestly won't stay anywhere else in Vancouver now. The conference rooms are top-notch, WiFi actually works throughout the building, and that restaurant? Best steak I've had in Canada."
"The spa day package was incredible - we felt like royalty. The building itself is stunning, love how they've preserved so much of the original architecture. Already planning our next visit for the holidays."
Don't just take our word for it - come see what over a century of hospitality expertise feels like. We'll be here waiting.
