Top 20 Reasons To Be In Canada

Top 20 Reasons To Be In Canada

The Waldorf was recently listed as one of the Top 20 Reasons To Be In Canada by Wallpaper* Magazine.

Reason—#3
Vancouver’s dishevelled Waldorf Hotel, built in the 1940s, has been brought back to life as a hip new hangout where going to bed is the last thing on anyone’s mind. Its Tiki Bar, not used since the 1970s, has been restored to its original glory; two eateries, one by Lebanese mini-chain Nuba, offer top-class dining; and a basement cabaret lounge provides a full-on programme of entertainment. If guests can ever make it up to their rooms, they’ll find in-room distraction in the form of an old-school cassette player complete with a selection of compilation tapes, proving that heritage revival continues apace.
