Iconic Coal Harbour resort-inspired hotel scores a hat trick at the 2024 Haute Grandeur Global Hotel Awards
Vancouver, BC (September 18, 2024) — Repeating last year’s win of the Best Prime Location award in Canada, The Westin Bayshore, Vancouver also scooped two other categories at the 2024 Haute Grandeur Global Hotel Awards. Winning Best Leisure Hotel and Best Destination Hotel in Canada in addition creates a trio of prestigious awards for the resort hotel at this year’s event. Established in 2014, the Haute Grandeur awards recognize top-rated accommodations, spas, and restaurants around the world that offer exceptional customer service, high standards in all aspects of the hotel, and unparalleled experiences for their guests. What makes these awards different is that they’re based solely on feedback from guests.
“It is flattering to be known internationally for our Coal Harbour location and world-class views,” says Paul Cannings, General Manager of The Westin Bayshore, Vancouver. “We are proud to provide special experiences for our leisure and business guests, so these additional awards are particularly special to our team.”
What was once the Bayshore Inn, which opened in 1961 in Vancouver’s downtown Coal Harbour neighbourhood, close to the city’s famed Stanley Park, is now an unparalleled urban resort destination. Today, its unique indoor and outdoor heated pools, world-class wellness and recreation facilities, plus locavore dining at H Tasting Lounge and H2 Kitchen + Bar, make it a standout property. The resort also offers 71,000 square feet of Westin Work Well event and conference space for private and corporate events. In winning these awards, The Westin Bayshore, Vancouver joins the elite ranks of global hotels and resorts that represent the best of the best in their countries and regions.
“The hotels, spas, and restaurants revealed in 2024 truly represent the best in the industry,” says Marinique de Wet, President and Founder of the Haute Grandeur Global Hotel Awards. “Their outstanding commitment to excellence sets them apart, making them the ultimate choice for travelers seeking quality experiences.” As much as honouring the guest experience, de Wet says, these awards also celebrate principles of teamwork, commitment, and leadership to create unforgettable visitor memories.
