Look, we get it - you've stayed in fancy hotels before. But here's the thing: Shadowryn Empire isn't trying to be just another luxury spot. We're doing something different.
Built in 1888, this place has stories in every corner. We've kept all the original Gothic details - the soaring arches, the hand-carved woodwork, those incredible stained glass windows. But we've also added everything you'd want from a modern luxury hotel. Think heated floors, rain showers, and beds so comfortable you'll have trouble leaving.
Our team lives and breathes this place. We know which room has the best view at sunrise, where to find the quietest spot for afternoon tea, and exactly how to make your stay unforgettable.
Discover Our StorySix things we do exceptionally well
Every suite tells a story. We've got rooms with original fireplaces, others with tower views, and all of 'em feel like stepping into a different era without giving up modern comforts.
Our chef's been with us for a decade. The dining room? It's in the original ballroom with 30-foot ceilings. The food? Contemporary cuisine that'd make your grandmother jealous.
Tucked in the old wine cellar, believe it or not. Stone walls, candlelight, and treatments that'll make you forget what stress feels like. Book the hot stone massage - trust us.
We've hosted everything from intimate weddings to corporate galas. The Gothic chapel's a favorite for ceremonies, and our event team makes sure every detail's perfect.
Our concierge team knows Vancouver like the back of their hands. Need tickets to something sold out? They'll find a way. Looking for that perfect hidden restaurant? They got you.
Free for guests, and honestly one of our favorite things to share. Learn about the original owners, the restoration process, and yeah - we'll tell you about the ghost stories too.
"Stayed here for our anniversary and wow... just wow. The room had this massive original fireplace, the staff remembered our names, and breakfast in that dining room felt like we'd time-traveled."
- Margaret T.
"I've stayed in luxury hotels worldwide, but Shadowryn Empire is something else entirely. The architecture tour alone was worth the trip. Can't wait to come back."
- David K.
"The spa treatments in that old cellar are incredible. And the concierge got us into a restaurant we'd been trying to book for months. These folks really know their stuff."
- Sarah L.
We're not gonna promise you'll never want to leave (though that happens a lot). But we will promise that staying here'll be unlike anywhere else you've been.
