Our 
Story

Built in 1911 by Captain Henry Pybus and Architect Samuel Birds, the St. Clair Hotel-Hostel is one of Vancouver’s original heritage buildings and the first concrete structure in the city. It was created to welcome travelers arriving by train and ship from across the globe.

Today, we continue that tradition  preserving the building’s nautical character and sharing a piece of Vancouver’s rich maritime history with guests from all walks of life.

Captain Pybus, of the Empress of Japan, is the man who built the St Clair Hotel in 1911.
