I just had a chat with the business manager of the
Metropolitan Hotel in Vancouver,
and she believes it may be an IBM approved hotel. She knows the Metropolitan in
Toronto is for
sure. The Metropolitan is how shall we say a niiiice hotel and one of my
friends is the head concierge. It is a full service hotel and we can get rooms
for 185 CDN – about 155 USD per night. The Metropolitan is
affiliated with Preferred Hotels.

I have also talked to the business manager for the Meridian (the hotel next
door to me). It is a suite hotel but is not a full service hotel (does not have
a dining room). We can book junior suites for about 100 CDN per night. Suites
have a full kitchen ( yah, sure, like you’re planning on cooking dinner
while you’re here). There are some nice places close by to get a
continental breakfast.
Both hotels have availability.
I would like to know by Wednesday if I need/should book a
block of rooms for us.
Best regards,
Steve
