Park Hyatt hotel set to debut in Vancouver in 2026

Hyatt Hotels has announced plans for a Park Hyatt hotel in downtown Vancouver, slated for 2026. 

The hotel, formerly Shangri-La Vancouver, is now operating as Hyatt Vancouver Downtown Alberni until a multi-million-dollar redesign will elevate the guestrooms, residential style lobby, public spaces and spa, and the hotel joins the Park Hyatt brand.

“Reimagining this iconic luxury hotel will enable Hyatt to thoughtfully expand our luxury portfolio in Canada,” said Scott Richer, vice president of development and owner relations, Canada, Hyatt, in a press release. “We’re excited for our plan to introduce the Park Hyatt brand to Vancouver in 2026, once we further elevate the hotel with refined design and signature experiences for our guests and World of Hyatt members. Together with Park Hyatt Toronto, the future Park Hyatt Vancouver will strengthen Hyatt’s luxury brand presence in Canada’s top urban markets and will offer the most discerning travelers a personalized experience in an intimate and enriching setting.”

The 119-room Hyatt Vancouver Downtown Alberni is now bookable across all Hyatt reservation channels.

Rising high above the Vancouver skyline, the hotel offers sweeping views of the harbour, coastal mountains, and cityscape.

The hotel’s Michelin-recommended and recently-renovated restaurant Carlino celebrates cuisine of northern Italy, with pasta made fresh in-house daily, and a menu dictated by the seasons and ingredients sourced from our backyard suppliers, allowing the true nature of the ingredients to speak.

Hyatt Vancouver Downtown Alberni is located at 1128 West Georgia Street. Following its rebranding to Park Hyatt, it will become the first Park Hyatt hotel in Vancouver and the fifth Hyatt hotel in British Columbia.

Hyatt Vancouver Downtown Alberni is now part of the World of Hyatt program, allowing members to earn and redeem points for eligible stays in Vancouver.
