OUR STORY

It Started With A Dream

Back in 2007, two old friends sat in a cramped Vancouver cafe, sketching ideas on napkins. What if we created something different? Not just another place to crash, but somewhere that felt like... well, like coming home after you've been away for way too long.

That napkin sketch became Lumareth Quintar. The name's a mash-up of our grandmothers' maiden names - figured they deserved the credit since they taught us everything about real hospitality. You know, the kind where you remember someone's coffee order or actually care if they slept well.

We've grown a lot since then, sure. Added some fancy touches, won a few awards. But honestly? We're still the same folks who believe a hotel should feel less like a transaction and more like a conversation.

Since 2007

Over 15 years of genuine care

"Honestly didn't expect to feel this at home in a hotel. The staff remembered my name after one night, and they actually meant it when they asked how my day went."

What We're Actually Good At

Look, we could list a bunch of fancy features, but here's what really matters - the stuff our guests actually talk about when they leave.

Rooms That Get It Right

We've obsessed over every detail. Blackout curtains that actually work. Showers with pressure that doesn't make you sad. Beds so comfortable you'll hit snooze at least twice. And yeah, the minibar has decent snacks, not just overpriced nuts.

Food Worth Waking Up For

Our chef's a bit of a perfectionist. Breakfast alone is worth the stay - we're talking real sourdough, locally-sourced everything, and coffee that'll ruin Starbucks for you forever.

Spa Days That Actually Relax You

No weird pan flute music or pushy product sales. Just skilled therapists who know exactly where you're holding all that stress.

Concierge Who Know Their Stuff

Ask Marcus about the best ramen spot nobody knows about. Or let Priya hook you up with tickets to that show that's been "sold out" for weeks. They've got connections and they're not shy about using them.

Parking Sorted

Hand over your keys, forget about it. We'll keep your ride safe and ready whenever you need it.

Events That Don't Suck

Whether it's a corporate thing or your cousin's wedding, we've got spaces that work. Good WiFi, comfortable chairs (seriously underrated), and an AV setup that won't embarrass anyone. Plus, our catering team makes sure nobody's stuck eating sad conference sandwiches.

THE PEOPLE BEHIND IT ALL

We're Pretty Proud of Our Team

Here's the thing about working at Lumareth Quintar - we hire people we'd actually want to hang out with. Sounds simple, but you'd be surprised how rare that is in hospitality.

Most of our staff have been here for years, which tells you something. They're not reading from scripts or faking smiles. When they ask about your day, they genuinely want to know. And yeah, they'll totally give you the real scoop on what to order at breakfast.

James Li

Front Desk Manager

"Been here since we opened the doors. Still get a kick out of seeing guests' faces light up when they walk into their room for the first time. That never gets old, honestly."

Amara Mitchell

Head Chef

"I left a Michelin-starred restaurant to cook here. Why? Because I got tired of food being precious. Here, we make stuff people actually want to eat. And they clean their plates, which is the best compliment."

Thomas Chen

Spa Director

"We don't do gimmicks. No hot stone readings or crystal healing nonsense. Just really, really good massage therapy and skincare. Simple works."

Rachel Santos

Lead Concierge

"My job's basically being a professional local friend. I know every bartender, gallery owner, and chef worth knowing in Vancouver. And yeah, I'll share all my secrets with you."

Come See For Yourself

We could go on forever about thread counts and amenities, but honestly? You just gotta experience it. We're pretty confident you'll get what makes this place different.
