Author tip

You're just a few blocks from Canada's biggest Chinatown, so stroll over for a glimpse at the buckets of live (apparently edible) toads, traditional apothecaries and duck-roasting restaurants. If it's summer, check out the colorful weekend night market.

How To Get There

• From the Airport: There is no longer a shuttle bus from the airport to the YWCA. A shuttle bus is available to the Hotel Vancouver located on Georgia Street about 6 blocks from the YWCA. The cost would be $13.50 one way. From there a taxi to our hotel would be an additional $5 or $6. A taxi directly from the airport may be easier and the cost is about $30-$35 one way.
• There is a public transit bus #424 to the Airport Station and transfer to the 98 BLine. Then ask the driver to let you off at Seymour and Georgia. The YWCA Hotel is just 4 blocks down Georgia on Beatty Street. The cost for this bus is $2.50. It will take a little longer but is certainly less expensive.
• From Train & Bus Station: exit the Vancouver Pacific Central Bus and Train station and cross the grassy front lawn to the Main Street Skytrain station. Catch the Skytrain going west towards downtown Vancouver and disembark at the next stop - Stadium Station. Exit Stadium Station on Beatty Street - turn left. We are about 150 metres up Beatty Street on the right hand side.
• By Car:
• From the south: Take highway 99 - over the Oak Street Bridge - take a right after the bridge onto South East Marine Drive. Turn left on Cambie Street and follow Cambie all the way over the Cambie Street Bridge (about 10 - 15 minutes depending upon the traffic). Once over the Cambie Street Bridge take the first right which is Beatty Street. Drive 1 1/2 blocks and you will see the YWCA Hotel/Residence on your left hand side. Take the lane just past the hotel on your left. Pull up behind the hotel into the 5 minute loading zone and enter the hotel to register. One of our Guest Services Representatives at the Front Desk will advise you where to park.
• From the north (Lion's Gate Bridge): Enter downtown via Georgia Street. Follow Georgia Street for 5 to 10 minutes (depending upon traffic). Pass Granville Street, the Vancouver Public Library on your right (shaped somewhat like a Roman Coliseum), past CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Corporation), take a right on Cambie Street. Travel one block and take a left on Robson Street, and turn left on Beatty Street (one way street). You will see the YWCA Hotel/Residence on your left. Take the lane just past the hotel, on your left, and pull up behind the hotel into the 5 minute loading zone and enter the hotel to register. One of our Guest Services Representatives at the Front Desk will advise you where to park.
• From the east: Enter Vancouver via Highway 1 (take the 1st Avenue exit), and take a right hand turn at Main Street. Travel several blocks and turn left at the intersection which takes you over the Georgia Viaduct to downtown. Go over the Georgia Viaduct and once over the viaduct take the 2nd street on your left which is Cambie Street. Travel 2 blocks and turn left on Robson Street, and turn left on Beatty Street (one way street). You will see the YWCA Hotel/Residence on your left. Take the lane just past the hotel, on your left, and pull up behind the hotel into the 5 minute loading zone and enter the hotel to register. One of our guest Services Representative at the Front Desk will advise you where to park.
