JW Marriott Parq & the DOUGLAS

This architectural structure represents a towering triumph of modern urban-integrated hospitality. Rising along False Creek in downtown Vancouver, this unique destination houses two distinct Marriott luxury hotels inside a sleek, co-joined glass complex, framing a gorgeous elevated outdoor park populated with mature native trees.

JW Marriott Parq appeals to seekers of classical, sophisticated comfort, with airy rooms and an award-winning spa. In contrast, the DOUGLAS is a love letter to BC's organic materials, featuring a lobby check-in desk crafted from an encapsulated 25-foot Douglas fir log, alongside warm wood accents and artisan finishes throughout the suites.

St. Eugene Golf Resort & Casino

Positioned inside the St. Mary River Valley between the Purcells and Rocky Mountain ranges, St. Eugene tells a powerful story of cultural reclamation. The property, owned and operated jointly by the Ktunaxa Nation, has transitioned from a historical mission school building into a stunning resort destination.

Guests can explore an exceptional Les Furber-designed 18-hole championship golf course, relax inside quiet mountain-view suites, or learn the histories of the land at the interactive onsite Ktunaxa Interpretive Centre.
