Element Vancouver Metrotown showcases major renovations
Atlific Hotels’ managed property, Element Vancouver Metrotown, has completed a top-to-bottom renovation of its public spaces and a refresh of its guest rooms as the hotel celebrates its ten-year anniversary.
The transformation incorporates clever use of space, smart, fresh thinking, and a design reflecting the Element brand’s approach to sustainable, whole living.
Guest rooms and key communal areas have been enhanced into multi-functional, human-centred spaces designed for both productivity and restoration. Guests are welcomed by a bright, uplifting palette that reflects Metrotown’s vibrancy, balanced by natural hues inspired by British Columbia’s lush landscape. Organic shapes and a curated mix of deep blues, forest greens, wood tones, and soft neutrals create a grounded, nature-inspired atmosphere that promotes whole, healthy living.
Guest rooms are refreshed, featuring new bedding and modern lighting. Next, the lobby offers a refreshed arrival experience that feels welcoming and reflects the environment, featuring modern soft seating, natural finishes, and plants. The fifth-floor RISE & RELAX Lounge now offers flexible seating, eat and work zones, and the hotel’s new, grounded colour palette that shifts with daylight.
The hotel’s popular saltwater pool and whirlpool are now joined by an upgraded Motion Fitness Centre, featuring new lighting, refreshed walls, and energizing design accents to inspire healthy routines. A complete update of the third-floor meeting space also brings in curated artwork, new carpeting and furniture, and greenery.
"Atlific is proud of Element Vancouver Metrotown's renovations which will enhance the already wonderful guest experience as well as its position as a leader in sustainable, longer stays,” says Philippe Gadbois, chief operating officer, Atlific Hotels. “It's an honour to have managed this exceptional property for 10 years and we look forward to continuing to meet the needs of today’s mindful traveller for many years to come.”
As part of Marriott’s Element by Westin brand, the hotel continues to offer long-stay essentials such as fully equipped kitchens, ergonomic workspaces, Westin’s Heavenly Beds, and spa-inspired bathrooms. Atlific’s leadership brings operational excellence, ensuring curated experiences, high service standards, and eco-conscious practices aligned with evolving guest expectations.
