I have to say I agree with DesertRat and his opinion of the showtunes. Not that I dislike them, but I think one night a week(Sundays) would be enough, however I have been coming to this bar for 20 years and have watched it expand and still like this place. Usually a fun enjoyable experience, although a couple of times I had walked up to the video DJ to make a request and was handed some rudeness and attitude. He seemed to really not like what he was doing. In spite of these 2 things I still like coming here for the mixed crowd, the bar has great atmosphere, sleek and stylish in every room, this bar is huge and the bartenders are friendly.

Nice hotel, within walking distance to many restaurants/shops and attractions, close to Stanley Park. Friendly and helpful staff, when I checked in they upgraded me to a corner 1 bedroom suite. My room was well appointed and comfortable, in keeping with the Kimpton tradition. For Starbucks fans there is one across the street. Would definately return.

I just went there this week with my co-workers for a farewell lunch for someone in our department. I tried the shrimp/sundried tomato special on linguine and it was perfect! Large shrimp, tasty sun dried tomato flavor with every bite. The house salad was very good, portions are very generous. The Tiramisu was fantastic, light and airy. Service was friendly and attentive, we ate inside which is very airy with high ceilings. There is outdoor patio dining as well. Prices are moderate.Definately planning to return.
