Hi! I’m planning my first trip to Vancouver early July and would love some advice.

I haven’t booked a hotel yet and am trying to figure out the best area to stay, wanting somewhere walkable, safe, close to touristy spots, good food, and nightlife. Looking at Yaletown, Gastown, or Coal Harbour but open to suggestions.

I’m hoping for a mix of sightseeing, scenic walks, great food, maybe a hike, and one night to really dress up for a nice dinner, drinks, and possibly some fun nightlife after.

Would love recommendations for where to stay, must-do spots/activities, best food (especially a nice dinner spot), and any bars or clubs worth checking out.

Just trying to plan the perfect first trip with good vibes, good food, and one fun night out. Thanks!
