Western Hotelier
Distinctive By Design

June / July 2008
By: Helena Kaufman

The Opus Hotel in Vancouver’s Yaletown remains one of the best examples of boutique hotel developments in western Canada. The property opened for business in late 2002 and has never looked back. When featured in Western Hotelier back in 2004, General Manager Daniel Graig said, “We are a boutique hotel in every sense of the word. What we offer here is an experience that is completely unlike that offered by large chain properties.

 


We provide guests with a stay that is very residential in feel. There are no conventions or huge banquets here. Our focus is on the room guest and their needs.” Rooms feature all one would expect from a top tier hotel. High speed Internet, workstations and best-of-show bedding are all givens. What guests may not expect are incredible spa-style bathrooms, televisions that range from 27-inch to 42-inch plasma screen marvels, fireplaces and commissioned artworks. The hotel also features a business centre, in-room spa treatments and L’Occitane En Provence amenities as well as complimentary use of the house Mercedes limousine for shopping and theatre drop off. The five room décor schemes move from traditional to very artistic and creative, an aspect that allows the property to offer a hospitality experience that is more easily tailored to guest personality and attitude. In fact the hotel has initialed a virtual lifestyle concierge database that is predicated on their choice of room style. Guests can tap the dbase for a recommendation on recreation, arts and culture activities or shopping that extend from old school to avante garde. “The boutique hotel is all about customizing the offering. In this way, we are well ahead of other properties. In fact, the boutique concept has not really caught on in Vancouver as it has in other centres such as Toronto, Montreal and San Francisco. In this respect we are almost alone in the field.
