Gold & Silver For Bacchus At The Wedgewood Hotel

 

Vancouver Magazine Restaurant Awards Give Top Honours to Vancouver's Top Boutique Hotel


Vancouver BC, Already recognized as Vancouver's leading luxury boutique hotel, the Relais & Chateaux, Wedgewood Hotel & Spa just added a little more gold to its collection.

The 19th Annual Vancouver Restaurant Awards were handed out on Monday afternoon in downtown Vancouver and Bacchus Restaurant & Lounge was recognized with Gold for Best Bar /Lounge, Gold for Best Hotel Dining, Silver for Best Formal French & Finalist in Best Last Course in Vancouver.

Critics saluted Bacchus Restaurant & Lounge as "A room that gets better with age. Forget the Hotel Dining part. It may be some of the best dining Vancouver has to offer, period, as supported by its recent Relais & Chateaux designation."

Wedgewood Hotel Executive Chef Lee Parsons has solved the complexities of serving three meals, room service and banqueting everyday of the year. "Dinners at Bacchus are a cause to celebrate from salmon lox pizzas in the lounge, to wild local fish and game and the ultimate in comfort food, succulent free range organic whole roast chicken. Parsons has taken Bacchus to the top of this category and somehow made it look easy"

For the ninth consecutive year Bacchus Bar/ Lounge was awarded the coveted title of Best Bar & Lounge in the City. "Bacchus Lounge continues to raise the bar with solid drinks well served in an atmosphere where many versions of deal-making excite the night." said one critic. Another critic suggested that Bacchus is "the only place in Vancouver to truly unwind. It's dark enough, comfortable enough, the tunes work well enough and the service is excellent."

Wedgewood Hotel Owner, Eleni Skalbania, whose personal touch continues to define Bacchus and the Wedgewood Hotel, was delighted "One very important characteristic of a great hotel is having a place where people can relax, feel comfortable and welcome. Bacchus is that place at the Wedgewood" Skalbania explained.
