Wedgewood Hotel & Spa Joins Relais & Châteaux
Vancouver's celebrated luxury boutique hotel set to join some of the finest for 2008.
After 23 years in operation and numerous invitations by distinguished international hotel groups, Eleni Skalbania, owner & operator of Vancouver's Wedgewood Hotel & Spa is delighted to announce the selection of the Wedgewood to the prestigious Relais & Châteaux association, which is recognised as "The collection of the world's finest restaurants and hotels".
The association's philosophy of the 5 C's - Courtesy, Charm, Character, Calm and Cuisine, coincides perfectly with Eleni's own views and matches the Wedgewood's own style of hospitality. Relais and Châteaux properties have always been her own preferred choice of accommodation when she travels.
The Wedgewood Hotel & Spa is the first and only Relais & Châteaux hotel to be selected in Vancouver and joins the celebrated Relais Gourmand Lumiere Restaurant, the exquisite Wickaninnish Inn in Tofino and the unique and exciting Little Beaver Creek Ranch in Quilchena to form an alliance of the finest in British Columbia.
"We are delighted to be associated with such an outstanding group of properties and as part of the Relais & Châteaux Family, we look forward to assisting travellers from around the world to experience and taste British Columbia at its finest" explained Skalbania.
At the very heart of the Wedgewood Hotel is Bacchus Restaurant & Lounge, a multiple award recipient, where Executive Chef Lee Parsons refined modern French cuisine while highlighting the very best of the west coast ingredients.
Founded in France in 1954, the Relais & Châteaux association includes 460 privately owned elegant boutique hotels and restaurants in 51 countries and on 5 continents.
