Rick provided an amazing stay at for us every step of the way at Skwachàys Lodge! We were upgraded to the king suite where the bed was very comfortable and so quiet as the windows overlook the courtyard. The sage and mint body wash was amazing. The location is within walking distance to everything in the downtown core, including excellent restaurants, Chinatown and eclectic urban life. Rick was very attentive about the current COVID restrictions and made us feel at ease for our whole stay. Also, the proceeds for our lodging go to the indigenous artists in residence which is a fantastic initiative. Overall, a really cool, creative, and welcoming stay in Vancouver. We'll definitely be recommending Skwachàys Lodge to our family and friends! Thanks so much Rick for a fabulous stay!…
I had the pleasure of staying at Skwachàys Lodge and Gallery about five years ago while on a work trip. It was such a treat staying in this historical and unique hotel. My room was the Drum Circle Room. In addition to one-of-a-kind and beautifully designed rooms, this hotel also offers Indigenous art and other amenities that other hotels don't. I also love the concept of revitalizing this charming old building and turning it into a social enterprise that benefits the local community. If only there were more inns like this throughout Canada. I look forward to the next time I am visiting the area, I will stay at the Skwachàys Lodge and Gallery again for sure!
We were warmly greatly by Mark the GM and he instantly made us feel very welcome. This one of a kind boutique hotel feature stunning Indigenous artwork as well as uniquely decorated room. I love this hotel and will definitely come back. Rooms are clean and beds are comfortable.
We had a great time at Skwachays lodge! The concept is brilliant and the staff are helpful and friendly (shoutout to Nobu)! The rooms are very tastefully decorated and the art gallery is beautiful! We’d highly recommend staying here and supporting creative businesses like this!
This is such an amazing concept, Indigenous hotel, featuring Indigenous art, with an artists in residence program. I’ve had this lodge on my radar ever since reading about this adventure a couple of years ago. It didn’t disappoint. Our room was a beautiful design, the staff were all friendly and helpful, the breakfast room was lovely. The homelessness of Vancouver is unsettling and can make you wary walking the streets but not once were we approached or made to feel personally unsafe. The location is perfect for walking in Gastown and downtown Vancouver.
