Rosewood Hotel Georgia
Vancouver, Canada · Rosewood · Grand Luxury
Rosewood Hotel Georgia opened in 1927 in downtown Vancouver, occupying its original twelve-story Georgian Revival building at the corner of West Georgia and Howe streets. The property underwent a $120 million restoration before relaunching under the Rosewood name in 2011, and it was refreshed again in 2024. It shares its block with another landmark luxury hotel, anchoring what has become a well-established five-star enclave in the financial district. That combination of a nearly century-old Georgian Revival building and repeated large-scale restoration has kept the hotel at the center of downtown Vancouver's hospitality scene.

About Rosewood Hotel Georgia
- Built for 1.5 million dollars and opened in 1927, the hotel became the first international property of Seattle's Western Hotels chain in 1931.
- Its guest list over the decades included Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra, Katharine Hepburn, and the Rolling Stones, and Marlene Dietrich once arrived with 40 suitcases.
- After closing in 2006, a 120 million dollar, five-year restoration brought it back as Rosewood's only Canadian hotel, reopening at 11:07am on July 10, 2011 to match the heritage lobby clock.
- The restoration reduced the hotel from roughly 315 rooms to just 156, in favor of larger, more spacious accommodations.
