211 Columbia Street (Block House) is a thoughtfully restored ±26,826 SF brick-and-timber heritage building in the heart of Gastown that has been transformed into a mixed-use boutique hospitality asset. The property comprises 19 boutique hotel suites on the upper floors and fully leased commercial space on the main and lower levels, creating a unique mixed-use investment opportunity in one of Vancouver's most sought-after and vibrant neighbourhoods.
The hotel was purpose-built to accommodate both short- and extended-stay guests, with the majority of suites featuring premium Italian-designed kitchens. The property is fully complete, operational, and leased to an experienced hotel operator, offering a turnkey investment opportunity with the flexibility for a future owner to either continue the existing hotel lease or operate the hotel directly.
Recipient of the Heritage Award of Honour (2003), the property features a restored brick and stone façade, character-rich brick-and-timber interiors complemented by impressive ceiling heights, operable heritage windows, and a refined interior palette that reflects timeless craftsmanship and elevated design.
211 Columbia Street presents a compelling opportunity for both investors and owner-operators—either as a stabilized income-producing asset with an experienced hotel operator in place or for purchasers seeking to directly operate a fully built boutique hotel in the heart of Gastown.
