Kid-Friendly Accommodations:  Fun for the Whole Family

Vancouver is a popular destination for tourists from all over the world, and is renowned as an excellent city to bring children to, because it is rated quite high in terms of overall cleanliness and has a very low crime rate. There are a variety of kid-friendly accommodations available in Vancouver, from great value hotels to top notch suites, and here we’ll take a look at several of the most popular hotels for kids around the city and surrounding area. Each of these hotels is so popular for a different reason, but finding the right one can make the difference between a successful vacation and a stressful couple of days.

One popular resort is the Ramada Limited Downtown Vancouver is a historic hotel on West Pender, and features over eighty European boutique styled rooms. The property has won several awards for outstanding customer service (many of these because the staff is so great with kids, and willing to make accommodations that are specifically family friendly), and has gotten excellent reviews on product quality maintenance for four years in a row. The rooms are charming, elegant, and beautifully decorated but are “kid-resistant” enough to withstand a rowdy group. The Ramada Limited is one of the premier kid-friendly accommodations in Vancouver.

The Compass Point Inn Surrey Hotel features spacious air-conditioned rooms, an indoor heated pool and Jacuzzi, a sauna, and two restaurants. These features have made it a great choice for families during any time of the year – the cool rooms are great for summer, and the indoor heated pools and Jacuzzis are perfect during winter. The kids will enjoy swimming and other activities, while parents will enjoy dining and relaxing in the spa and sauna. There is even a pet policy if the family wants to bring the dog or cat. The hotel is within walking distance of the King George Skytrain station, which provides direct access to downtown Vancouver.

Another great kid-friendly accommodation is the Kitsilano Heritage House Bed and Breakfast, a charming 1912 Craftsman-style home that has been gently and lovingly restored. It is nestled within a street lined with dozens of trees, in the Kitsilano area of Vancouver – just a ten minute drive from the downtown metropolitan area. One of the bed and breakfast’s premier rooms, the Asian Garden Suite, offers a two bedroom apartment that is perfect for parents that want a little privacy during the night.
