Waarom mensen ervan houden
- The 'Mansion' nightclub and pool deck create a Vegas-style party vibe right in the building
- Mott 32 downstairs is arguably the best high-end Chinese food in the city
- Arthur Erickson's twisting tower design guarantees floor-to-ceiling windows in every room
Snel Overzicht: It’s a stunning architectural marvel that hasn't quite decided if it's a luxury hotel or a 24-hour party venue.
Beoordeeld door @Jadesss: I checked into the Paradox Hotel for a rainy Vancouver weekend and honestly, I didn't want to leave. The heated outdoor pool is a game changer in winter, and the city views from the suite are moody perfection. 10/10 cozy vibes.

Reality check
Weekend sleepers consistently complain about the thumping bass from the club and lounge until 2-3 AM.
- You are in Vancouver to party and want your bed to be an elevator ride away
- You travel with a dog (pets stay 100% free with treats provided)
- You appreciate tech-heavy rooms with Crestron controls for everything
Schoonmaak & Onderhoud
9.5
- Housekeeping: Impeccable. Daily service is thorough, and the 'newness' of the rebrand still shines.
- Bathroom hygiene: Sparkling. The Italian marble is well-maintained, and the heated floors are a hygienic luxury.
- Maintenance: Excellent. No reports of peeling paint or broken fixtures; the property feels very fresh.
- Linens & towels: Crisp, high-thread-count, and plentiful.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells expensive (signature scent); rooms are neutral and fresh.

Voordat je boekt
Goed om te weten

Wat je mee moet nemen

Kamer Genie
Beste keuzes

Veelgestelde vragen & Verborgen tips
Alles wat je eigenlijk wilt weten voordat je boekt.
Is the pool open for swimming?
Yes, but it's complicated. It's an indoor pool on the 3rd floor that gets covered by a dance floor for the nightclub on weekend nights. Swim early.
Is it really pet friendly?
Yes, surprisingly so. No pet fee, and they provide beds, bowls, and treats. One of the best pet policies in the city.
Can I hear the nightclub from my room?
On floors 4-10, definitely. On floors 15-21, it's a muffled thump. If you are sensitive to bass, book elsewhere for Friday/Saturday stays.
How much is parking?
Valet is approx. $55 CAD per night with in/out privileges. Self-parking is off-site and inconvenient.
Does the room have a view?
Yes, the 'twisting' tower design by Arthur Erickson ensures almost every room has unique floor-to-ceiling window angles.
Is breakfast included?
Usually no. It's à la carte at Karma Lounge. Expect to pay ~$30-40 CAD per person.
Tips van Insiders
- ✨
The 'Mott 32' reservations are harder to get than a room at the hotel—book the restaurant weeks in advance.
- ✨
The outdoor hot tub on the 3rd floor is often less crowded than the indoor pool and open year-round.
- ✨
You can text the front desk for almost anything, including extra Malin+Goetz toiletries.
5 dingen die je moet weten voordat je gaat
💡The hotel only occupies the bottom 1/3 of the tower; the top 40 floors are private condos.
💡The 'Cityscape' rooms have a weirdly exposed bathroom layout—make sure you're comfortable with your roommate.
💡There is a 'Champagne Vending Machine' legend associated with the property, but don't count on it working.
💡The elevators can be slow on weekend nights due to club traffic mixing with guests.
💡The 'Resort Fee' is $0, which is practically unheard of for a property with a pool and spa.
