Best Spas in Surrey

"The vibe: A haven in the heart of downtown, The Wedgewood is a Vancouver institution. The city’s only Relais & Châteaux property, it has been family-owned for over three generations, which is becoming a real rarity in our corporate world. Original owner Eleni Skalbania personally decorated the property with antique art and Murano chandeliers from her world travels, and her two daughters (the current owners) keep the aesthetic updated for a 21st-century crowd."

"As a famous Instagrammable spot in Vancouver, Hotel Europe is a 6-story building dominating the center of Gastown neighborhood. The building appeared in 1908 and it has always been the spotlight of the area thanks to the triangular “flatiron” architectural concept. Hotel Europe was built by Parr and Fee Architects whose innovative purpose was to place the building on a triangular lot."

"A top-hatted doorman greets those seeking discretion, as well as old-school luxury. In the bustling downtown, it is a pleasant surprise to find what feels like a country-house retreat, where classic decoration is matched by the latest technology. Movers and shakers frequent the restaurant and bar."

"$$$ | Gold List 2018 Readers' Choice Awards 2017, 2018, 2019. Locals were awed when they walked through Rosewood Hotel Georgia’s doors when it reopened in 2011 after a renovation that, among other things, expanded the size of the existing rooms and reduced the number of available suites from 313 to 156. This was a careful, tasteful transformation; the grandeur and history of the hotel was clearly respected, allowing the Georgia to once again assume its place as one of the finest Vancouver hotels."

"Our readers turned us on to the awesomeness that are Breka’s freshly made doughnuts. With Boston Cream and Apple Fritters available 24-hours a day, it should definitely be on you go-to list. Address: Four Vancouver locations (Fraser, Bute, Davie, and 4th Ave); check website for details"

"Breka is more than a tourist spot and a late-night study option for university students. For 15 years now, the bakery has been serving great donuts (starting at $1.50) alongside a whole bunch of other reasonably priced items. But, this is a donut list, and they deserve a spot on here."

"We're offering 2 options: pick-up in store at all 5 locations, or you can order from UberEats and get free delivery at this time."

"If you like cozy coffee bars with exceptional service, then Turk’s Coffee Bar, a small, funky coffee shop on the Drive, is the place for you. The interior is decorated with cool cartoon images blown up on the walls and the dishes. However, seating is limited inside and there is more of chance of grabbing a spot outside on the patio."

"Frenchman and former Le Gavroche pastry chef Thierry Busset is the chef patron of Thierry, a brilliant patisserie/cafe/chocolatier and lunch spot downtown. Sit on the sunny terrace while you scoff his delectable salted caramel macaroons (£1.23 each) or sink into one of the sumptuous cakes or seasonal tarts made by his wife and co-pastry chef Alison and their team. At lunch, try one of the gourmet baguettes (created by local fine-dining restaurant West's renowned chef Quang Dang), such as the cold smoked sockeye salmon with cucumber and caper cream cheese (£2.71 for half/£5.45 full)."

"Thierry is best known for their fine French pastries, but expert baristas and an organic, fair trade espresso blend, designed by Casa del Caffe’s Vincent Gentile, ensure consistently good coffee, too. Their beans are dry roasted to ensure freshness and a unique taste profile that’s strong and smooth with hints of chocolate, cinnamon and spice. Late night coffee drinkers will appreciate Thierry’s close time of 12am, and spiked drinks are available, too."

"Looking inside, you can see there are actually two almond sections: one tube-like almond bar and a generous amount of almond paste buried under a number of layers and folds. Content-wise, this had the second highest almond proportion. Its shell didn't have the same flakiness as the two above but made up for it with a great rise."

"Located in the heart of Vancouver’s traditional ‘Little Italy’ on Commercial Drive, Gelateria Dolce Amore is a family-owned and operated gelateria with neighborhood roots that are four generations deep. Dolce Amore’s gelato makers combine the creativity of an artist, the inspiration of a chef, the discipline of a craftsman, the precision of an architect, and the passion of a composer to handcraft the shop’s incredible gelatos and sorbettos. Their commitment to this special artisan craft is evident in every taste."

"This young Italian restaurant has an old soul, and you can feel it in the best way possible. The white exposed brick, deep red leather cushions, black and white features, and rich mahogany communicate with each other in unison creating a comfortable and unique atmosphere. Hours: Daily, 5-10PMWhere: 8 W Cordova Street"

"We know you do, and you’ll love dining out on their relaxing patio even more. Go there for the old-world atmosphere, and some classic Italian bites. If you’re here, you can’t miss their pizza, and definitely not the margherita with mozzarella di bufala."

"Di Beppe is inspired by the Italian immigrant's desire to share a piece of home while living abroad. There's a real sense of pride that is deeply engrained within"
