Boutique hotel with Victorian architecture and river views in New Westminster

Historic Victorian Boutique

Originally built in 1892, The Met Hotel is one of the first hotels in the area and retains its Victorian architectural heritage. Each of the four floors has a private lobby space for socializing, providing guests with distinct gathering areas outside their rooms. The hotel offers a self-guided tour guide for exploring local historical sites.

The hotel's on-site Howe Sound Taphouse & Kitchen serves food in a sports-bar atmosphere and offers a 10% discount to hotel guests. The Met Liquor Store is located on the property, providing a large selection of wine, beer, and spirits. Guests can also enjoy free morning coffee service in the lobby.

Rooms with River Views

Rooms have oversized windows, and front-facing rooms offer Fraser River views. The hotel has undergone extensive renovations that combine comfort and technology, including flat-screen TVs and free wireless internet. All rooms are completely non-smoking and some include a microwave and mini-fridge.

Central Location with Transit Access

The Met Hotel is steps from Columbia Skytrain station, providing a 30-minute connection to Downtown Vancouver. Within walking distance is the New Westminster Quay Public Market and the Fraser River waterfront. The hotel is also close to Royal Columbian Hospital and the Justice Institute of British Columbia.
