Pros
- Large rooms featuring flat-screen TVs with DVR
- Bedside controls for lights and curtains, and floor-to-ceiling windows
- Bathrooms are huge, with separate showers and tubs, plus flat-screen TVs
- Fine dining at MARKET by Jean-Georges
- Top-notch spa
- Large fitness center, complete with a yoga studio, open 24 hours
- Free Wi-Fi
Bottom Line
The Shangri-La offers uber-luxe digs in Downtown Vancouver. Catering to the business traveler (mainly due to its location), the hotel's large rooms feature free Wi-Fi, flat-screen TVs with DVR, bedside controls for curtains and lights, and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking downtown. But the massive granite-and-marble bathrooms are the real highlight, featuring separate showers and tubs, as well as flat-screen TVs. The hotel also has a Jean-Georges restaurant and a hip spa, both of which are extremely pricey and only add to the hype.

Location
In Downtown Vancouver, near the Vancouver Convention Center
The Shangri-La is in the eastern part of Downtown Vancouver, adjacent to the Bentall Centre Mall and within walking distance of the Vancouver Convention Center. There is also a SkyRail line just a couple blocks away.
Downtown Vancouver is the financial and commercial hub of the city. It's bustling during the weekdays, when tourists and locals fill the streets -- but empties out at night and on the weekends. However, Robson Square is always alive, featuring restaurants, shops, bars, and the Vancouver Art Gallery.
