Large & Bright Gastown Luxury Loft w/20ft ceilings

This custom designed loft has the perfect mix of elegance and comfortability: ideal for a couple's retreat, a family visit, or a business trip. It's 1200 sq ft (120 sq metres) of unique space right in the centre of Gastown Vancouver. Our brick and beam loft has been completely restored with every modern convenience. 20 ft ceilings (6 meters) Hardwood floors, marble counter tops, king sized bed, a queen sized bed and a relaxing steam room are some of the luxury finishes.

The suite is close to many great shops and attractions as well as Rogers Arena, BC Place, Vancouver Convention Centre, the Sea Bus, and the Skytrain to the airport. We are located in the entertainment district so there are acclaimed restaurants and bars all around us and weekends can get noisy from the street and music in the area.

Other details to note:

Depending on the season, we may not approve booking requests that leave a one night vacancy before or after the request. We also may not approve two night weekend bookings that are requested more than two weeks in advance, especially in the high season we require 3 night bookings on weekends. Minimum 4 night bookings are required during the Christmas/New Years holiday, unless approved otherwise.

If you require a pack and play, we have one that must be reserved in advance and is based on availability.

There are loading zones in front of the building for loading/unloading. We have several options for parking. Both are a 5 to 10 minute walk away. Please enquire for details.

Pets are not allowed unless authorized by the owner prior to check in. Service animals are only permitted when assisting someone with a disability.

Only registered guests are allowed in the suite. Unauthorized guests may result in an eviction and fine.

Beautiful Loft Style
The condo is beautiful, amazing room on the second floor. Stairs can be a little tight to navigate large suitcases up, but not a big deal. Check in progress, was seamless and they allowed us to drop our bags early!! Steps away from amazing food and nightlife

This is the best VRBO I have ever stayed in. Everything was amazing! We felt very well taken care of. I see some reviews on the location but it shouldn’t dissuade you from staying here. Gastown is beautiful. The loft is beautiful and had everything we needed to make our stay fabulous!

Lovely holiday oasis and orientation to Vancouver!
I booked this VRBO for a family trip to Vancouver over the holidays and can't rave enough. The hosts provided comprehensive detail so my family and I would feel comfortable navigating in and around the apartment during our stay. The apartment itself is spacious, beautiful, and warmly done -- there are 4 people in my family and we each had enough space to be with ourselves in each other's company -- and we felt very safe and at home during our visit. We received helpful information for parking on the street and in the area and were able to keep our car safe in the nearby EasyPark Lot, per the hosts' recommendation. Gastown was a delight to explore by foot as well. It was easy to spend many hours popping in and out of the apartment between coffee, lunch, shopping, and dinner in Vancouver! I'm already looking forward to my next stay here. Thanks, Eddie, Marv, & Mei-Ling, for a wonderful holiday memory!

Holiday outing
Beautiful loft on the border between Gastown and a section of Vancouver suffering from urban decay, homelessness, and rampant open drug use. Turn right out of the door and Gastown offers decent restaurants and shopping. Turn left and you enter drug zombie land.

Great location in Gastown
My wife and I stayed here for a get away to Vancouver, and it was the perfect location. Close to all that Gastown has to offer. The hosts provide a very helpful little guide to the area, with a list of nearby coffee shops, restaurants, and markets, as well as loads of other helpful info. The only potential down side is that it is above a popular pub, so things can be a little noisy outside on Friday or Saturday night, but we didn't find it to be an issue. Would definitely stay again. Thanks!

Beautiful space in Heritage Building
My sister and I came down with our husbands and spent the weekend in Vancouver. Loved the loft, owners were fantastic to work with. Only downside (which I didn't fully understand at time of booking) is that we are directly over a lively bar. Great if you are looking for a good time, less great if sleep is a priority.

Fun busy location with lots of options for food and drinks. The accommodations are beautiful, comfortable. A loft style, old building modernization like you see in movies. Was a bit worried about the locations proximity to Hastings, but it is in the heart of the touristy part of gas town so we never felt unsafe. Thank you!

A Gas in Gastown!
As designer I enjoyed the complexity, and finish of the interior. Beautifully arranged spaces made our stay comfortable. If your looking for a quiet Vancouver experience Gastown may not be for you as the Loft is directly over a popular public house. My 25 year old son choose the Loft to place us right in the middle of all the great restaurants and night life. Greek, French, and breakfast restaurants are directly across the street. All very good! The homeless and addict presence was avoidable. As San Franciscan's we sort of used to it. Would we book the Loft again? YES! Have Fun all!

Great Host, Great Property
Our stay at this VRBO was excellent. The apartment is a beautiful space and was comfortable for both me and my sister for our travel needs. There is definitely an issue with the homeless population in that area. The hosts made sure to leave a very detailed guide to our stay, which included ways to navigate around the areas that we should avoid. I can't say for certain, however, it's likely that had we known about the area and the intensity of the homeless encampments we may have chosen a different place to stay. All in all, it was a magnificent place to stay and we really enjoyed our time at this beautiful location. Thank you to the hosts for checking in on us regularly during our stay and a very special thank you for allowing us to check into the space early, you all went above and beyond to make our stay more enjoyable!

Lovely stay, but area needs help!
It’s not the Hosts fault that the city of Vancouver is having problems with homelessness and drug use, but it is really close to the property. Drug use happened right on the door steps to the property. In the heart of Gastown, easy access to transportation, lots to see and do in area! Apartment is beautiful and modern, has all you need for a comfortable stay! Steam shower is a plus!!!

Cute updated loft, not great neighborhood.
The loft itself was very well appointed and comfortable. The property manager was very helpful and quick to respond to questions. The only issue we had was with the neighborhood. We had heard great things about Gastown, but found it to be rampant with homelessness and public drug use. We did not feel very safe walking around with our children. Overall, I don’t think we would stay again due to the location, which is a shame because the space was very nice.

Great condo close to so many restaurants, bars, and attractions
Really great location for vacation. Condo is beautiful and had everything we needed. It is worth noting that a block away is Hastings Street, which seems to be Vancouver's Skid Row, with rampant open air drug abuse and junkies passed out all over the sidewalks. I wish I had known that going in, so I could avoid walking into all that mess with my kids. It is easily avoided once you're aware.
