Local tip for booking

If you’re planning to visit Vancouver in the summer, try booking your accommodation at least three months in advance. The city draws a lot of visitors for events like the Celebration of Light fireworks and outdoor festivals, which means prices climb and hotels fill up fast. Also, consider places near SkyTrain stations like Waterfront or Main Street for easy access to both downtown and other neighbourhoods without worrying about parking or traffic. A little early planning goes a long way in locking in the best top rated spots.
