Could anyone please tell us if they know of a nice self-containted apartment for 3-4 adults in the downtown Vancouver area? We will be arriving 17 Jan 07 for approx 7 nights. Any suggestions of other areas to stay would be appreciated also.

How about the YWCA hotel? It's in the downtown area within walking distance to everything and a block from skytrain. www.ywcahotel.com

Try Rose Ellen Suites in the west end - very close to Stanley park.

Try the Times Square Suites. Only a few minutes from Stanley Park, and they have one and two bedroom suites. Very comfortable. We stayed there for 3 nights in August.

Try www.premieresuites.com and then look for the Vancouver section.

Excellent site, good map, nice pictures.

The boss of the company has written a book about how to become a millionaire without an MBA, primarily by providing really good products and services.

With that in mind, there are probably nice apartments.

The Meridian on Beach is quite nice. It's downtown along the False Creek shore.
