Recent review: “Our experience at Stanley Park Pavilion was absolutely exceptional! Buket and the team made planning a breeze with their expert guidance and flexiMy wife and I recently had our wedding ceremony and reception in the English Bay Room at Paradox Hotel and we are extremely pleased with how everything went.

We don't live in Vancouver and needed to plan the entire wedding from abroad. Also, we did not hire a wedding planner, so we relied heavily on the wedding coordinators provided by the hotel - Nina Miguel and Dexter Eulin. They provided all of the details that we required and excellent guidance throughout the entire process. We even had some last-minute changes and requests that they were able to accommodate. Thanks to them, the ceremony and reception all went according to plan without any issues.

The food and service were also top notch.

We would like to send our sincere thanks to all of the staff that worked the event which included Jordan, Kelly, Bella, Nina, Jett, Hana, Patrick, Cristina, and Jane (sorry if I missed anyone). The event would not have been successful without them.

If you are planning a wedding in Vancouver or are just looking for a hotel with excellent service and amenities, we highly recommend Paradox Hotel.”

I cannot put into words how wonderful they were and how easy they made everything for us. Everything turned out exactly as I had imagined and everyone had an amazing time. Thank you to Eva and the rest of the banquet staff for everything - you gave us one heck of a night to remember!”

“We had our wedding reception here in the Cordova room. Adele and team were fantastic, very accomodating and attentive. We selected the buffet, so at first I did not have high expectations about the food but it was absolutely amazing! All our guests raved about the quality and variety of food, and they were able to accomodate several food sensitivies among our party as well. The servers were attentive and took such great care of my wife. Definitely would recommend the Pinnacle Harbourfront if you are planning a celebration”
