David Birch & Paul Wylie
Harking back to the days when the West End was Vancouver’s first residential neighbourhood, the 1906-built West End Guest House was once home to the Edwards family – some of their photographs of early Vancouver adorn the walls. Current owner Paul Wylie has modernised the interiors and plumbing (all rooms are en suite), while retaining a period charm. The eight individually styled guest suites range from lush garden level (Superior King Garden Suite) to cosy attic with skylights (Deluxe King Suite). Complimentary gourmet breakfasts, and free Wi-Fi add to the charm. It is on historic Haro Street, within walking distance to nearby Stanley Park seawall, or Davie and Robson Street shopping areas. The parlour with hearth is ideal for winter contemplation, while the veranda and garden beckon in summer months.
