Brief History of the Sylvia:
The 8-storey-tall Sylvia was originally constructed in 1912 as an apartment building (thus a number of rooms have kitchenettes). The residence was gradually transformed into a full-service hotel.
The Sylvia lounge was the first cocktail bar in Vancouver when it opened in 1954.
In 1975 the Sylvia was designated by the City of Vancouver as a “heritage building”, ensuring its survival for years to come.
