Concierge.com's insider take:
Formerly a run-down hotel with a stripper pole in the basement, this 1913 relic (no relation to the St. Regis in New York or its namesake luxury brand) had an $11 million facelift in 2008. Now it caters to style- and budget-conscious families and business travelers in the core of downtown. The 65 rooms and suites feel larger than their size (under 300 square feet) and are handsomely tailored in shades of gray with dark brown wood furniture. All that gray can be a bit somber—especially in winter—so book one of the corner rooms (04s and 10s), which have more windows. The drapes aren't heavy enough to defeat the street noise, but on the flip side, you're in the heart of the bustle, close to shopping (chic department store Holt Renfrew is across the street), sporting events, the convention center, and Gastown. You'll give up your expensive waterfront view, but you still have state-of-the-art technology, including free Wi-Fi and iPod docks, plus a large working desk with plenty of outlets. Also free is a full daily breakfast—though there's a Starbucks on property, as well as a Tim Hortons, Canada's busiest coffee and donut spot, across the street.—Kasey Wilson
