温哥华酒店
第二代温哥华酒店

温哥华酒店(英语:Hotel Vancouver),又称费尔蒙温哥华酒店Fairmont Hotel Vancouver),是加拿大不列颠哥伦比亚省温哥华一座地标性酒店,坐落温哥华市中心汉比街和布勒街之间的一段佐治西街,楼高17层,共有556个房间[1],隶属费尔蒙酒店集团。现时的温哥华酒店是第三座同名酒店。

历史

为了回报加拿大太平洋铁路公司(CPR)兴建铁路连接加拿大东西两端,加拿大政府将铁路总站(即现滨海站)一带的土地赠予CPR。CPR深知集团未来的利润将有一大部分来自将该片土地出售从而套现,因此积极游说权力机关和富商到此置业,以提升该带的形象并推高地价。CPR并计划将佐治西街夹固兰湖街一带打造成温哥华的核心地段,遂于固兰湖街和豪街之间的一段佐治西街上修建第一代温哥华酒店[2]。酒店于1888年5月开幕,楼高4层,共有60个房间[3][4]。第一代温哥华酒店其后拆卸,原址改建成第二代温哥华酒店,并于1916年开幕[4]。第二代酒店呈意大利风格建筑(Italianate),楼高14层[4]

另一方面,加拿大国家铁路公司(CN)则计划在汉比街和布勒街之间的一段佐治西街兴建第三代温哥华酒店。项目于1928年12月4日动土[5],后来却遇上经济大萧条而停工。随着国王乔治六世和王后伊丽莎白定于1939年访问温哥华,酒店项目获得CPR注资并得以复工,并赶及于1939年5月国王伉俪访问期间开幕[4][6]

第二代酒店在第二次世界大战期间用作军人宿舍,战后则于1949年拆卸[4][7],原址于1960年代末至1970年代初改建成多伦多道明银行的温哥华总行大楼及伊顿百货的温哥华市中心旗舰店。
