Beautiful historic hotel with a stunning view of English Bay. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful. They were very accommodating for our large dog as well. We were only supposed to stay one night at the Sylvia Hotel, but ended up staying for three since it was so comfortable and welcoming.

Regarding the restaurant - It's a lovely place and the food is excellent, but if you're a beautiful woman, be careful of the waitresses there, because they're jealous and they'll hurt you.

Popped in for brunch. Historic building with rich history and lots of archival shots of Vancouver. On site parking that is handy as street parking hard to find. Food a bit disappointing but service attentive and friendly. Great views. Overall a nice experience.
