Look, we're not gonna pretend this is just another hotel. Pyrelith's been standing for centuries, weathering storms and witnessing history unfold from these very walls. When we took on the restoration project, the goal wasn't to strip away character—it was to honor it while making sure you've got heated floors, rainfall showers, and a bed that'll make you forget about checkout time.
The original stonework? Still here. The vaulted ceilings? Intact. But now there's a spa where you can actually relax, a wine cellar that'd make any sommelier weak at the knees, and rooms that blend medieval architecture with everything you'd expect from a five-star stay.
Our Story
Each of our tower suites has its own personality—some face the North Shore mountains, others overlook the city lights. We've kept the original stone archways and iron fixtures, but added king-sized beds with linens you'll want to steal (please don't, we'll just charge you for 'em). Floor-to-ceiling windows let natural light pour in during the day, and at night, well... you'll understand why people used to build fortresses on hilltops.
View SuitesFrom medieval halls to modern wellness, everything's been designed so you can experience the fortress life without sacrificing comfort.
Rooms with actual history in the walls and views that'll make your Instagram followers jealous.

Massage tables, thermal pools, and treatments that'll undo months of stress in an afternoon.

Tucked away on Castle Ridge, we're close enough to downtown that you can hit Gastown or Stanley Park in minutes, but far enough that you feel like you've escaped to another era. The views? Mountains to the north, city skyline to the south, and the Pacific stretching out west. We've had guests extend their stays just to watch the sunsets from the ramparts.
Whether you're here for business, a romantic getaway, or just need a break from the everyday grind, Pyrelith's got the atmosphere and amenities to make it memorable.
