Just a few minutes walk from Times Square Suites, nestled in the forest, is the magical train ride that signals the Christmas season is here!
More than a million twinkling lights transform the forest, train and Children's Farmyard. Explore the woodland paths leading to enchanting, animated displays and holiday sounds. A Christmas family tradition for over 20 years, the train wends its way through the forest past Santa's workshop, an international village and the much loved Moose in the middle of the glistening waterway. The aroma of hot chocolate, fresh popcorn and roasted nuts brings back childhood memories. Visit Santa in his 'Living Room' at the Train Station. All donations collected at the event, and partial proceeds from the sale of tickets for the train, go to Vancouver Firefighters Burn Fund to help burn survivors and their families.Families, couples and all those who love the Christmas spirit can enjoy a night out in the park and then stroll back to Times Square Suites to snuggle up in front of the fireplace!

For many years, we have been hosting business travellers, couples and families and perhaps now we finally appreciate our own special characteristics. People travelling on limited budgets can save a few dollars by having home-style conveniences such as a fully equipped kitchen and an in-suite washer/dryer. Maybe our rooftop barbeque patio is a new haven for informal dinners!
We feel that we are poised to help people save on expenses while continuing to maintain a mobile lifestyle since we include free local telephone calls, in-suite CD/DVD player, complimentary fitness passes and reduced rates for our secure underground parking.
Our location allows guests to focus on the simple things that Vancouver residents enjoy each day. Common activities such as a walk in Stanley Park accompanied by a fresh Starbucks coffee, a stroll down Robson Street to window shop or a visit to the Vancouver Art Gallery. Guests staying for a longer duration may opt for a video store membership and rent DVD’s to enjoy while curled up in front of the fireplace as if they were at home.
In this moment of economic consciousness, maybe we are part of the solution...

Face it, not only is there a mountain of items that you could pack for your baby but it will cost you an arm and a leg at the check in counter of your air carrier to bring them.
We have a solution for you!!
Stroller's, cribs, highchairs are JUST THE BEGINNING to what you could rent from these life saving baby care
businesses.
Most of these companies will deliver your items to your hotel and pick them up on your day of departure. Who says babies and hotels don't mix!
If you have used one of these agencies we'd like to hear your experience..
(How was the equipment/service?)
